THE SPIRIT MURDER MYSTERY (FORSYTHE, ROBIN)
Thrusting his pipe in his pocket, he crossed to his writing desk. Extracting a heavy army-pattern revolver from a drawer, he began silently to search the whole ground floor of the house. Eileen Thurlow, an ardent devotee of spiritualism, persuades her uncle John to join her in a s?ance which produces the eerie sound of organ music. Later that same night John Thurlow disappears. A day later two bodies, one of them John Thurlow?s, are found in a field half a mile away. Victims of supernatural vengeance, a fatal duel? or base murder? Algernon Vereker, sojourning in the neighbourhood, is eager to investigate the mystery, however chilling its premise.

It includes a new introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans. ?Mr. Forsythe belongs to the new school of detective story writers which might be called the b

With Jace Salome?s partner out of the picture, she?s forced to delve into the world of online predators alone? Two bodies, recently beaten to death, are discovered on the edges of Zachary County. There is a recent attempt to break into the security office at a resort in nearby Rooster County. And the Zachary County Jail has exploded with seemingly random fights. A year into the job now, Deputy Sheriff Jace Salome is edging into being more comfortable with her role in the department. When she finds a smartphone in the jail she learns the random fights are anything but, that they have been filmed and then emailed from the phone to an intricate web of private email servers and access-only websites. And the fights seem to be directed from someone outside the jail.

Jace realizes the dar
