  Can a dead body in a chocolate shop revive a battle-fatigued cop? Or will it take the owner of the shop to save him? 
  Homicide detective Scott Whelan lived for the job–until the day he was caught in the middle of a robbery gone bad. Although some call him a hero, he thinks of himself as a coward and a failure. He exists now in what he calls his “Dark Place”. He accepts a new job as a civilian with the Pine Hills Police Department, thinking being close to the job will be better than leaving it completely. But when he finds himself in the middle of the investigation. Scott has to choose where his loyalties lie—with his brotherhood in blue, or his attractive new neighbor, who needs someone on her side. And figure out how to get out of the dark. 
  Against her parents’ wishes, Ashley Eagan has split from her unsupportive fiancé and moved to Pine Hills to start her dream business: Confections by Ashley. Faced with countless construction setbacks, she fears her plans for the perfect grand opening will be ruined. When a dead body turns up in her shop, a delayed opening is the least of her worries. Now, she’s afraid she’s facing murder charges. Her new neighbor has connections with the police department, but he’s sending mixed messages. One minute he’s the friendly, handsome neighbor, the next, he’s playing cop. Not to mention he’s carrying enough baggage for a world-wide cruise. If Ashley’s learned anything since leaving home, it’s that she’s the only one she can count on.

Alarm bells start ringing when he arrives at Craven Manor.

  Against his better judgment, he moves into the groundskeeper's cottage tucked away behind the old family crypt. But when a candle flickers to life in the abandoned tower window, Daniel realizes he isn't alone after all. Something awful happened here long ago, and it's a paranormal mystery Daniel is afraid to solve. Because Craven Manor is hiding a terrible secret... 
  One that threatens to bury him with it.

  “A whimsical debut novel in which Bernard makes heaven the setting for a story of love and self-actualization . . . highly enjoyable.” —Kirkus Reviews   A disillusioned office bureaucrat in the afterlife has come to realize that maybe heaven isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Bored by the endless routine of work, golf, and vegan food, he finds his one saving grace in his Field Studies: detailed reports he compiles on the living in order to determine their best fit in his world. While working on his sixty-second field study, he begins to fall for Tetty, a detached Basque-American beauty living in Nevada, while struggling to understand what she sees in Carmelo, a clumsy scholar obsessed with the elusive Basque culture. When people start going missing from heaven for no apparent reason, the narrator learns that Field Study 62 may hold the key to explaining the disappearances.   “A soaring tribute to any human life, in all its flawed glory.” —Diagram   “A novel that makes us laugh while breaking our hearts.” —Christopher Coake, author of You Would Have Told Me Not To   “Wild and imaginative.” —Charles Yu, author of Interior Chinatown   “Welcomingly comic . . . permeated with a sense of intrigue.” —Kevin Brockmeier, author of The Brief History of the Dead   “Blends two well-crafted and charming stories together—on one side you have the darkly humorous mystery and on the other a deeply introspective journey of human nature. A quirky but enjoyable read.” —Blotterature
