Sinopsis

   This time, we have a pair of original mysteries—tales by Steve Liskow (courtesy of Acquiring Editor Michael Bracken) and M.A. Blume, plus a terrific tale by Steve Hockensmith (which typography nuts like me will enjoy, courtesy of Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman). The mystery novel is by Avery Gaul, and of course we have a solve-it-yourself puzzler from Hal Charles.
 
   On the science fiction side, we have a novel by Golden Age author Arthur Leo Zagat, an early—and quite silly—fantasy from Harlan Ellison, space opera from Edmond Hamilton, and straight-up SF tales from John Victor Peterson and Manly Bannister. Lots of fun.

    Alara never thought she'd know her biological family, much less have a criminal mastermind father who kidnaps her mother.

    Alara, Irene, and a couple of stowaways travel to a nearby city to investigate the murder of her father's loyal lieutenant, but Alara didn't expect the only witnesses to be a house full of paperbacks and an ornery bobcat. As Alara pushes her powers to the limit, desperate for even the smallest clue, she starts to wonder if the spines of the paperbacks are binding more than just stories. But with thousands of books around her, can she find what she needs before the pages of her mother's life come to an end?

    Patrick “Paddy” Murphy 
    Secretive, Quiet, Reserved. 
    The mafia taught him just how disastrous secrets and lies were. Despite that, he kept the deepest, dirtiest secrets of them all. His desire for men, or rather one man—me—was only the start of them. If the family or—even worse, a rival family—found out about us, life as Paddy knew it would cease to exist. 
    It was as if the universe knew this and tried to keep us apart. From Army Deployments and near death experiences to a secret baby, everything that could go wrong did. I didn’t know how much more I could take, until he committed the ultimate crime. 
    One final act of betrayal, and he might as well have ripped my heart from my chest. There’s no going back, and he has to learn to pay the price for his mistakes. 
    Michael “Griff” Griffin 
    Stubborn, resentful, mine. 
    He had every right to hate me, to never want me again. I betrayed him, broke him, but despite all of the mistakes of my past, Griffin would always have my heart. 
    We went through too much pain and heartache to just give up, and I would stop at nothing to earn his love back—even if it meant putting him before my brother’s orders and refusing to marry a woman in La Famiglia—the mother of my unborn child. 
    The skeletons in my closet are too much to bear. Will I be able to bury them, or will my dirty laundry be aired?
