    Peter Bannerman, veterinarian and amateur detective, deserves a summer vacation. Peter and his family head to a remote fishing lodge in northern Manitoba for a canoeing trip with his champion sniffer dog, Pippin. But a series of incidents color their plans. The lodge’s sled team of huskies has been poisoned and, at the same time, a floatplane crashes into the lake, killing the pilot and both passengers. While Peter works to save the huskies, it is discovered that the plane crash wasn’t an accident. It was murder.
    		 
    It’s been a hot and dry summer, and one morning the Bannerman family wakes up to find a forest fire spreading quickly. They manage to dodge the conflagration, making it back to the lodge before it becomes cut off from the outside world. Peter soon figures out that the murderer, who probably also poisoned the huskies, must be among the other guests or staff trapped with them at the lodge. The power fails. The now-enormous fire draws nearer. Can Peter discover the culprit in time?

    The ME ruled her death an accident. He was dead wrong.
     
    When Mary Jane Bennett is found dead in her bed— alone, strangled by her own scarf, and with every door in the house locked — the medical examiner rules her death accidental, the result of a sex game gone horribly awry. State police decline to investigate further, but Queensbridge Police Chief Caleb Crane doesn't buy for a minute that his good friend died this way, so he undertakes his own investigation. Facing town councilors afraid of bad publicity, an angry medical examiner, and his own personal demons, he labors to solve what he believes is the first-ever murder in his pastoral Berkshire Hills village. Complicating things: the list of suspects includes some of the people to whom he is closest — including his own wife.

    “. . . one of my favorite mystery reads this year . . .

    Scorch marks blacken the wireframe dungeon, and the smell of burnt meat hangs in the air. Iarumas’s party stumbles upon a corpse, more charcoal than flesh, and Raraja insists on dragging it out. Murmur—Chant—Pray—Invoke. A large-framed girl named Berkanan gulps the fresh air of her second chance at life. Her confidence is low and her skills as a fledgling mage are inadequate, but despite all that, she has a serious goal—kill the red dragon that burned her party alive. This dragon, an interloper from the lower levels of the dungeon, has become so notorious that even the most seasoned parties refuse to engage. Even so, Garbage and Raraja agree to aid Berkanan, and Iarumas lends his support. The chances of failure are high, but in the dungeon, immolation is not a permanent end...as long as someone is willing to pay. Can Iarumas’s party douse the flames of the dragon, or will they all succumb to a menacing red death?

    ~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~
     
    Edgar sits on the chair in the living room, looking out the window at the hot summer day. His shirt clings to his chest, outlining his hard pectoral muscles. The other thing that's outlined is the thick rod in his pants—theone that doesn't seem to want to go down. This heat will definitely do that, but what also does it is having his 18-year old daughter Katelyn at home all day, walking around and shaking that hot bottom of hers.
     
    Katelyn sits, staring at her History textbook, pretending to read.
     
    Edgar gets up and heads into the kitchen, intent on getting himself some water. But as he does he hears a squeaking coming from underneath the chair in the living room.
     
    "What was that?" Katelyn's voice comes, and she gets up from where she's sitting, looking around at the ground.
     
    "I think it came from under the chair," Edgar says to his daughter. "Come on, help me move it."
     
    "No way," Katelyn says. "If that's a mouse I'm not getting near that thing."
     
    "Come on, stop being a wimp," Edgar says, and Katelyn looks shocked for a moment, but then gives him a challenging look.
     
    "I'm not a wimp!" she says, and she gives her daddy a playful shove. He counters by grabbing her arms, and soon the two of them are horsing around, laughing and squealing as they grapple back and forth.
     
    Inside Katelyn's body she feels completely flushed. She's horsed around with her daddy before, but this time it feels different. In fact, ever since she turned 18 things have felt different. Her virgin core, for instance, is glowing with a deep warmth that usually only comes whenever she's thinking sexy thoughts.
     
    Soon enough they slow down and both Edgar and Katelyn are laughing. They catch their breath and look at each other. For Katelyn that feeling inside of her hasn't gone away. And the way her daddy is looking at her makes her think he's feeling it too.
