    Nothing ruins a good walk on the beach like finding a mysterious suitcase full of damaged bones and a skull. The discovery rocks the peaceful community of Mermaid Bay, known for its historic beach cottages. The gruesome find is nothing like the usual summer ills of litterbugs and teens drinking under the pier for the idyllic seaside community, located a few miles from Virginia’s historic triangle of Jamestown, Williamsburg, and Yorktown. Ominous posters, followed by threatening notes and voodoo dolls, push the already-worried town’s business owners closer to the edge. Then, while trying to cope with the onslaught of threats to their community, prickly bookstore owner Emory Jessup turns up dead, strangled with a string of holiday lights. Christmas shoppe owner Jade Hicks has to connect the dots among all the strange occurrences before the summer tourist season is ruined and the spotlight of blame is focused on her store.

    Joshua Albert Flynn was born in Sheerness, Kent, on 15th September 1863.   
    He was educated at private schools and later graduated from King's College, London.    
    His initial career was with the Civil Service where he thrived.  A marriage to Ada Parkinson brought two sons and three daughters into their lives.   
    He worked in South Africa as a financial adviser to Lord Kitchener before stints at the Admiralty and the War Office.  In 1916 he was appointed director-general of finance at the Ministry of Pensions.  His stellar professional career brought him a Companion of the Order of the Bath in 1910 and a knighthood in 1919.  
    His career in literature, under the pseudonym ‘Owen Oliver’, started late and is almost forgotten today. Although he wrote a handful of novels, he was well regarded as the author of short stories for children.  But amongst the 250 stories he wrote and published in the leading periodicals and the magazines of the day his ambitions spread much wider.  He was able to write across a number of genres.  His humourous stories received particular praise as did his many science fiction stories, where undoubtedly his time in Government helped bring across a particular way of imparting information into the structure of narratives as normal everyday folk came up against terrifying and dystopian happenings. 
    Owen Oliver, died in Streatham, south London on 8th October 1933.  He was 70.

    June 1920, Ireland: The streets of Dublin seethe with revolution as the Irish Republican Army clashes with British authorities. Roving assassination squads mean nowhere is truly safe, particularly for Verity Kent and her war hero husband, Sidney. Given their celebrity as society darlings and intrepid sleuths, they must tread carefully to go unnoticed—nearly impossible when they are called upon to search for Verity's fellow spy and friend . . . 
     
     
     
    Captain Alec Xavier has seemingly vanished after traveling to Dublin to infiltrate the IRA at its highest levels. Doing her best to maintain a modicum of normalcy and stay under the radar of both the rebels and British Intelligence, Verity works undercover by day and waltzes through the city's elite social scene by night. Still, she fears the worst for Alec—until shocking evidence mounts that not only is he alive, but that he has switched sides . . . 
     
     
     
    Already disillusioned with the British government, the news leaves Verity and Sidney reeling. Worse, they learn of a conspiracy within Dublin Castle, where personal vendettas are being carried out and sanctioned by British Intelligence under the cover of revolution. Verity and Sidney cannot turn a blind eye. Especially when a familiar adversary appears, bringing a threat almost too terrifying to confront—even in the cold light of day . . .

    Hard-boiled 1920s private detective Buck Baxter is used to solving crimes of passion, but when his latest client turns out to be his own boyfriend, Harry Hart, Buck discovers that nothing is what it seems when it comes to the mysteries of love. 
    All of Wilde City is abuzz with the unveiling of transport tycoon Howard Hart’s latest innovation, a rocket-train that promises to change the future of not only Wilde City, but the entire world. But not everyone has their mind on Hart Industries, including Harry—Howard’s son and heir to the Hart empire—who is so suspicious of his mother’s abnormal behavior that he hires his boyfriend, Buck, to investigate. 
    On the surface, the case looks like another secret love affair. But when Buck finds danger at every turn, he realizes this investigation is much deeper—and the stakes much higher—than he ever suspected. 
    From the smoke-veiled opium barge known as The Peking Empress to the opulence of the Hart family mansion—from Luigi’s garlicky gangster-run Linguine Kitchen to the secret-filled carriages of The Millennium Express—Buck’s latest case is about to teach him that love comes in many forms, all of which are wrapped in secrets, danger and a whole lot of mystery. 
    Buck Baxter and the Mysteries of Love is the third adventure in The Buck Baxter Detective Agency series. It is a campy, noir, 35k-word detective story featuring a tough and troubled leading man, a heartthrob love interest with secrets of his own and a hilarious cast of supporting characters. Enter a world of prohibition, gangsters, speakeasies, jazz clubs, star-crossed romance, brooding heroes and a mystery with a twist.
