  Snow-Blind

  A bit of a menage-a-quatre in a remote cabin in the wilderness as fugitive Hugh, his younger brother Pete, nursemaid and cook Bella, and now the newly arrived snow-blinded young Sylvie who had been snatched from near death in the snow by the heroic but moody Hugh. Because of her blindness, Sylvie is led to believe her rescuer to be a handsome and dashing hero; his younger brother to be but a young lad of 14; and Bella a matronly old maid. But Sylvie would, in time, form her own image of the clan and attempt to bring them together as they were destined to be split apart. Demonstration lies herein of the inherent ability of the blind to use their other senses to best any situation laid before them. (Introduction by Roger Melin)

  The third book in the Dr. Bones Mystery Series, BONES TAKES A HOLIDAY, is a change-of-pace from the usual whodunit. The holidays in question are Christmas 1939 and Valentine’s Day 1940. The world is at war, and the first of many hard winters has begun. But for Dr. Benjamin Bones and Lady Juliet Linton, love has bloomed amid the fear of an uncertain future.  
  Part One: Dr. Bones and the Christmas Wish 
  A few days before Christmas 1939, Dr. Benjamin Bones is in a "Bah, Humbug," sort of mood. It's the coldest winter on record, his country is at war, and his love life has run aground. But magic as well as mysteries abound in Cornwall. When Ben makes a bargain with an elfin little man, it leads him to an old woman who longs to make amends--and a chance for Ben to show that certain someone how much he cares. 
  Part Two: Dr. Bones and the Lost Love Letter 
  There's no such thing as privacy in the tiny village of Birdswing. Everywhere Dr. Benjamin Bones turns, someone is spying from a window, listening through a wall, or gossiping over a garden fence. "The birds sing in Birdswing," says the vicar, Father Cotterill, and in February 1940 this is more true than ever. Waiting for Hitler to make his move and turn this "Phony War" into the real thing, Ben's fellow villagers are desperate for a distraction. But his blossoming affair with Lady Juliet must remain absolutely secret. 
    
  So when a seemingly trifling "case" arises--a love letter misplaced for almost thirty years, still in search of its intended recipient--Ben and Juliet jump at the chance to investigate, simply to steal a bit of time together. But as they try to deliver the letter, they discover two lonely people who might get a second chance at love... through the magic of Cornwall. 
  NOTE: This book was originally published as two separate novellas: DR. BONES AND THE CHRISTMAS WISH and DR. BONES AND THE LOST LOVE LETTER.

  Dumped by her fiancé and craving a fresh start, Vylette West retreats to the one place she swore she’d never return—her peculiar hometown of Driftwood Cove. 
  But instead of peace and quiet, she impulsively buys the town’s most haunted property: Briggs Manor, a crumbling estate with creaky floors, a ghostly sea captain who doesn’t believe in personal space… and a raven who talks back. 
  Now juggling home repairs and the launch of her new real estate agency, Vylette lands her first listing—the Henderson house, a property so steeped in ghostly gossip even the bravest buyers won’t touch it. 
  To make the sale, she’ll have to navigate cranky spirits, whispered secrets, and the suspicious stares of her not-so-welcoming neighbors—all while fending off a ruthless real estate mogul who’s made it his mission to drive her out of town. 
  If Vylette can sell a haunted house, dodge a shady rival, and keep her sass-mouth raven from live-tweeting her life mistakes… she might just survive Driftwood Cove’s real estate market—ghosts and all. 
  Welcome to Driftwood Cove—where the ghosts gossip, the raven judges you, and every listing has a skeleton in the closet. 
  A paranormal cozy mystery with hauntings, humor, and a raven that never shuts up.
