  No Sweetness Here - And Other...

  From the author of Changes: these stories “of post-independence Ghana in the late 1960s are written beautifully and wisely and with great subtlety” (Chimamanda Ngozi Adichi).   In this short story collection, the award-winning poet and author of Changes and Our Sister Killjoy explores postcolonial life in Ghana with her characteristic honesty, humor, and insight. A house servant wonders what independence means in a country where indoor plumbing is still reserved for bosses. A brother tracks down his runaway sister only to find she has become a prostitute. In the title story, a bitter divorce turns tragic when the couple’s only child dies of a snake bite.   In these and other stories, tradition wrestles with new urban influences as Africans try to sort out their identity in a changing culture, and “even at her gravest, Miss Aidoo writes with a sunny charm” (The New York Times).

  It’s the honor of an Amplifier to bear an Alpha’s heir, to provide him a son worthy of his name and the land’s magic. 
  This has been Addison’s expectation—among others—from birth, taught that it’s the noble thing for her to do without power of her own. So when an unexpected raid murders her mate and his entire pack, she flees to a remote town where she lives her days bereft and pregnant as the sole survivor. 
  Until the impossible finds her two years later. 
  Three Shifters from her pack—one her loyal Protector and all of whom should be dead—show up on her doorstep, claiming her son to be the new Alpha. To save him from his worsening illness, Addison must gather her wits and return with them to her old pack lands. 
  Except, these men are nothing like the Shifters she remembers. And the longer she stays, the more lies from her past start coming to light. While she battles between her mind and her heart, danger follows in their tracks.

  A string of puzzling murders. A skilled and dangerous killer. Will the Cold Case Squad discover the truth in time to save one of its own? 
  PI Martina and Detective Hirsch accept the new sheriff’s request to reopen a ten-year-old serial killer case. Not that they could refuse. One victim was the sheriff’s brother, a married father of two. 
  The case is strange. Someone has murdered three successful men within a six-month time period. There were no suspects and no motive. The only connection is their cause of death. The links are thin and the motive is unknown, but Martina and Hirsch know better than to ignore the similarities. 
  Frustrated without a logical theory for the murders, Martina and Hirsch throw out preconceived notions and start from scratch. Determined to learn the truth, they pound the pavement and re-interview family, friends, and coworkers until Martina receives a tip. 
  Not a tip. 
  A warning. 
  Undeterred by the threat against her and the squad, Martina calls for an all-hands on deck to solve the case. Will the squad discover the truth before one of their own pays the ultimate price? 
  Her Last Words is the 8th installment of the fast-paced and suspenseful Martina Monroe crime thriller series.
