Synopsis

Arthur Ellis award–winning William Deverell’s 2003 bestseller
		 
In Mind Games, William Deverell returns to the intriguing territory of the law and lawyers and of human psychology and motivation, and he does so in familiar Deverell sur­roundings: the streets, courtrooms, and waters of Vancouver.
		 
Dr. Tim Dare is a forensic psychiatrist whose life is in a mess: his wife has just left him to find herself; his mother is being sued for libel by a small-town mayor over a mystery novel; he’s been made the monitor of a man just out of psychiatric hospital, a man he considers a psychopathic murderer; he’s being hauled before a disciplinary committee for “misplacing” a file; one of his patients is “transferring” feelings to him rather too romantically; and now someone’s threatening to kill him. He can’t even get into an elevator without falling apart. No wonder he thinks he needs to see a shrink himself. Under the guidance of fellow psychiatrist Dr. Allison Epstein, Dare gradually learns how to face the demons within — and those in the real world that are really out to get him.

    🦃 Jam maker and cranberry farm owner Berry Sweet is hosting her family's annual Thanksgiving when the dinner's most contentious relative—a notorious food traditionalist opposed to recipe changes—is found dead in the pantry, a jar of suspicious cranberry sauce shattered around her. The police suspect an allergic reaction, but Berry notices the cranberry sauce has been deliberately over-sweetened and the victim's family recipe cards contain coded notes about ingredient substitutions. With her family gathering turning sour and generations of tradition at stake, Berry must strain through family secrets to find the truth. Assisted by her canning club friends and the handsome food chemist analyzing pectin levels, Berry uncovers a scheme involving recipe forgery, fruit substitution, and a plot to alter family culinary legacy. From suspicious gel points that reveal improper cooking to sugar content that doesn't match heirloom recipes, every jiggly spoonful tells a story. But when Berry discovers the victim was systematically altering family recipes to cut out certain relatives from inheriting culinary secrets, she realizes the killer is protecting family unity more precious than any preserved fruit. With Thanksgiving dinner imminent and the real recipe forger still stirring the pot, Berry must set the truth before her family's traditions get permanently canned.

    Sir Roger Parkes is a man of some influence in the West Country. When he loses touch with his youngest daughter, he has a word with the Assistant Chief Constable of the local force. It's not a police matter, he is told, but if Sir Roger wants to pursue it privately, there is a lady who might be able to help—two of them, actually. As far as Summer Lane is concerned, she has enough problems without going into the investigations business with her next door neighbor; Mrs. Emily Willows's problems all seem to center around the fact that her neighbor is refusing to go into the investigations business with her. They have reached, it seems, an impasse. Until, that is, Emily notices that someone has left a message on her answering machine . . .

    The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - Volume 6:
    Throughout many years, Dr. John H. Watson accompanied his friend and companion Sherlock Holmes in solving countless mysteries and crimes. Beginning in the 1880s and into the 20th century, Holmes consistently held his status as the world’s most brilliant and successful detective. His accomplishments were painstakingly chronicled by Watson in notes that relate the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Many of his accounts have been published and are well-known to a broad readership.
    There were times, however, when Watson would refrain from publishing his writings during his lifetime. He would do so for various reasons: At times, he would find himself forced to keep actual events and background information secret for moral, criminal, or financial reasons. Other times, he would want to either avoid potential political, legal, or social scandals or even damage to his own—or Holmes’s—reputation. Some of Watson’s accounts, however, were simply not published at the time because he was occupied with more important or urgent matters.
    The New Adventures brings to the public for the very first time some of Watson’s accounts of Sherlock Holmes cases previously kept under lock and key.
