Death on a Gravestone - A...

John F. Wake, M. K. Jones

When the body of well-known and much hated politician Agnes Hunter is found on a gravestone in Wales' largest cemetery, with a gun and a note, her death is ruled suicide. 
 
 
 
However, Trevor Gwyn Jones, senior reporter for The Cardiff Sentinel, is skeptical of the verdict, as is his best friend and confidante Sergeant Gareth Roberts. 
 
 
 
Agnes had made many enemies, both personal and professional, in her relentless pursuit of the top political job in Cardiff and later, Wales. 
 
 
 
Trevor and Gareth have nothing to go on to suggest murder, apart from their long-term knowledge and experience of investigating death, plus a gut instinct telling them something isn't right with this one. Their discovery of another, similar death in 1973 on the same gravestone sends their investigation into an exploration of historical crime. 
 
 
 
Is there a motive that links the two deaths? Is there another agenda at work and what danger will it lead them into?

Ghostly Mysteries - Haunted...

ReGina Welling, Erin Lynn

Welcome to Mooselick River, where the Christmas lights sparkle, the gossip travels faster than Wi-Fi, and ghosts refuse to stay quiet.

Everly Dupree came home looking for a fresh start. What she got was a front-row seat to murder, and mayhem.This collection includes books 1-3 in the Haunted Everly After Mysteries series, each packed with supernatural twists, small-town charm, and a mystery that refuses to stay buried.

Book 1: Ghost MortemEverly Dupree thought walking in on her husband in bed with her best friend was the worst thing that could happen. Then she moves back home, checks into a motel, and stumbles upon a dead body—specifically, her high school ex-boyfriend’s. Worse? His ghost won’t leave her alone until she solves his urder. With a town full of suspects and a crime scene that won’t stay quiet, Everly’s fresh start is looking a lot more like paranormal purgatory.

Book 2: Bargain HaunterA town-wide yard sale, a micromanaging ghost, and one very dead boss—Everly should have known the annual event would be more than just cutthroat shopping. When a chocolate lab drags her straight to a body, Everly finds herself tangled up in small-town scandals, shredded secrets, and a nosy dog who refuses to leave her side. And when the dearly departed insists his death wasn’t an accident, Everly’s got no choice but to dig through the clues—literally and figuratively—before the killer strikes again.

Book 3: Christmas PresenceMurder never takes a holiday, and neither do Everly’s unwanted ghostly
visitors. When a journalist turns up strangled with a string of Christmas lights, the town’s annual holiday decorating contest becomes a crime scene. With bitter rivalries, twisted secrets, and a pushy ghost demanding justice, Everly’s got more than just shopping and snowflakes on her plate. And when the case circles back to her ex-husband’s latest scandal, it’s clear—some gifts should never be unwrapped.
