  Friends don't let friends go to jail. 
  Everly Dupree's to-do list just got longer: clear her best friend's name, solve two murders, and send two ghosts into the light. All before happy hour. 
  When Patrea Evergreen is arrested for murder, Everly leaps into action—as if being haunted by psychic Davina Benet's uncooperative ghost wasn't irritating enough. 
  With zero suspects and even fewer clues, Everly hits a wall until town gossip Jober Peavey starts spreading the most ridiculous rumors Mooselick River has ever heard. But someone thought Jober should keep his mouth permanently shut—and now there's another body on the ground. 
  As Everly digs deeper, she unravels a tangled web of secrets that reaches into the heart of her sleepy town. With Patrea's freedom hanging in the balance and two chatty ghosts demanding justice, Everly finds herself racing against a ticking clock. 
  The closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous her investigation becomes. Now she must decide how far she's willing to go to save her friend—before she becomes the next victim in this deadly haunting season. 
  When the dead won't rest and the living won't talk, sometimes the most dangerous thing in town isn't the ghost haunting you—it's the truth.

  The annual Pigsend Harvest Festival is coming up quick, and Bev's been assigned to the planning committee against her will. But Ida Witzel, the festival chair, wants no mishaps this year, and she knows if Bev's involved, the hijinks will be at a minimum. That is, until farmer Trent Scrawl isn't seen for a few days, and on a wellness visit, Bev finds him dead. 
  Well, not dead, but in a mysterious magical coma. While Doc Howser scours the countryside for the antidote, Bev's once again called in to investigate. The obvious culprit is Trent's nemesis Herman Monday, but when another prominent Harvest Festival entrant goes down, it becomes clear the mystery is bigger than petty pumpkin squabbles.  
  Can Bev figure out who's trying to ruin the Harvest Festival before it's too late?  
  Perils and Potions is the ninth book in the Weary Dragon Inn series.

  The Machine Stops

  A haunting vision of the future written in 1909, The Machine Stops follows Vashti and her son Kuno in a world where humanity has retreated underground, living in isolated pods entirely dependent on a vast, all-powerful Machine that fulfills every need — communication, food, ideas, comfort. When Kuno begins to question their total reliance on technology and longs to experience the Earth's surface, his mother dismisses him as dangerous and eccentric. 
  But the Machine is beginning to fail. 
  Eerily prescient, Forster's short story anticipates the internet, video calls, social media dependence, and the slow erosion of human connection — over a century before they existed. A must-listen for anyone who has ever wondered how much of ourselves we've surrendered to our screens.

  There is something about the number 3.  
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. 
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes. 
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
  From their pens to your your ears.

  Private investigator Rick Cahill has been running from his past and chasing the truth his whole life. But his past is relentless—and so is his CTE, a disease caused by repeated head traumas that has attacked his body and his mind. As his CTE progresses, he realizes that the disease not only threatens his life but also endangers his family's wellbeing. 
  As Rick struggles to keep his family together, he does a favor for Sara Bhandari, a business contact. Then, Sara is murdered, and the police believe her to be yet another victim of a serial rapist who has been terrorizing greater San Diego. But Rick has reason to question their theory. Determined to find the truth at any cost, and against his wife's warnings, he investigates on his own. 
  Along the way, he bumps up against a sinister private investigative agency and a shady shell corporation that may be hiding more than company secrets. As Rick digs for the truth about Sara's death, he risks his own life and the lives of countless innocents caught in his relentless crusade. Ultimately, Rick must decide if his quest is worth the risk of losing his family forever.
