  For fans of The Jerry McNeal Series comes a full-length, standalone Jerry McNeal novel, with Jerry, Gunter and a cast of lively spirits who are sure to entertain. 
  When Jerry McNeal and Gunter are asked to travel to the Old West town of Deadwood, South Dakota to check out some mysterious happenings, they jump at the chance to explore the historic town. Equally exciting, Jerry and his ghostly K-9 partner soon find themselves walking the streets with legendary gunfighters and dodging the daily arrival of a phantom stagecoach that still brings age-old spirits to town. 
  In a story within a story, disabled Marine veteran Tyler Jones, aka Jonesy, unknowingly rents an apartment in the same historic town. Hiding in the shadow of his former self, Jonesy soon finds himself pushed out of his comfort zone by Grandma Lilly, the lively spirit of a former Deadwood madam determined to help the man realize his worth and help him heal the heart of Juanita Stim, the widowed mother who rents him a room in her house overlooking the legendary city. 
  When Jonesy finds out his old friend, the psychic medium, is in town, he asks Jerry to stop in and speak with the Deadwood madam to see if he can uncover what is preventing her spirit from leaving the house. 
  Will Jerry be able to help Madam Lillian walk the streets of Deadwood once more, or is she destined to live within the prison of her home for all of time? 
  A fun-filled ghostly adventure with a hint of romance, Spirit of Deadwood is for those who dare to believe in the unbelievable.

  Zo Jones is enjoying the sunny season at her Happy Camper gift shop in Spirit Canyon, South Dakota—when a murder reminds her all that glitters isn't gold . . .  
   
   
    
  The South Dakota Gold Rush might be long over, but Zo Jones feels like she's hit the mother lode when she and her friends browse an estate sale, where a rare old book about the history of Spirit Canyon is causing quite a commotion. In addition to local stories and secrets, the book may even contain the location of a famous stash of gold—a treasure worth killing for. 
   
   
    
  Zo's friend Maynard Cline wins the bid on the book, to the chagrin of many interested parties, including the historical society and college history department. But when Zo and Hattie head to Maynard's mansion to borrow the book for a library event, the only thing they find is Maynard—at the bottom of the mountain.  The valuable book is gone. Zo knows this must be murder because there's no way a germophobe like Maynard would have voluntarily dived into a pile of dirt. Now she'll have to dig into a new case, and go prospecting for a perpetrator . . .

  "The Adventure of the Missing Three-Quarter", one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 13 stories in the cycle collected as The Return of Sherlock Holmes. It was originally published in The Strand Magazine in 1904 with illustrations by Sidney Paget.
  Mr. Cyril Overton of Trinity College, Cambridge, comes to Holmes seeking his help in Godfrey Staunton's disappearance. Staunton is the key man on Overton's rugby union team (who plays at the three-quarters position, hence the story's title) and they will not win the important match tomorrow against Oxford if Staunton cannot be found. Holmes has to admit that sport is outside his field, but he shows the same care he has shown to his other cases.

  Declutterer Ellen Curtis has been working to bring order into the life of Cedric Waites, a recluse in his eighties who hasn't left his house or let anyone inside it since his wife died. On one of her regular visits, Ellen finds the old man dead. It's sad but, given his age, perhaps not unexpected, and nothing to get worked up about...until the police raise the suspicion that Cedric might have been poisoned! The cause seems be something he ate, and since Ellen cleared away the old man's food containers, she is under suspicion. As is Dodge, who works for Ellen and has unhelpfully done a runner and disappeared... Meanwhile, Ellen's life has taken on a chaotic turn of its own: a rival declutterer is out to sabotage her reputable business, her two grown-up children are back home and in crisis, and she has a potential love interest. Can she uncover the killer and bring order back to her own life?

  Candid and keenly observed, I found it laugh-out-loud funny in several places, there's a sharp, knowing level of satire throughout the book, combined with weary cynicism, and some of the scrapes and exchanges are comedy gold. Spurious Scrapper is a fast-moving and grimly hilarious novel that takes the reader into a wretched subterranean world that is as appalling as it is compelling. Highly recommended. - Rose Auburn  
  Fans of Trainspotting by Danny Boyle will surely enjoy this book. A must-read for those who are not afraid to dive into the darker side of life. - Stuart Brkn Johns  
  Trigger warnings - drug and alcohol use, homophobia, violence, sex, self-harm, talk of sexual assault and abuse, torture.
