Book
Palo Verde
by Martin Hollingshead
Author Martin Hollingshead's unique voice provides Palo Verde: The Wanted Poster with a fascinating narrative. While the perpetrators of the crimes are immediately apparent, revealing their motivation is similar to peeling the layers of an onion. Each new revelation provides an intriguing look into the black heart of a killer and his boss, even as their ineptitude makes for startling humor. Marshal Pappy is amazingly adept at avoiding bullets and pursuit. Indeed, his marvelous character will have readers eager for other books in this early 1900 series. Hollingshead's attention to detail, including the use of new scientific methods to convict criminals, is absolutely fascinating. With this skillful author's pen, the Old West comes to life with the voice and background to make it vividly real. Cindy Penn, Senior Editor, WordWeaving

Exposure Behind Closed Doors
by Victoria Taylor Murray
EXPOSURE BEHIND CLOSED DOORS is centered around one earth-shattering week in the life of New Orleans Police Lieutenant, Grieco Storm. A police detective whose passions and convictions run as deep and sizzling as the sultry city he is bound by duty and honor to protect. The discovery of arsenic found in the blood-systems of two International Super Models, Johna Bauer and Ursula Rhee; initially ruled accidental prescription drug overdoses by the city's shady coroner, is what initiated a secret branch of the Justice Department to get involved. Not only was the State of Louisiana suddenly faced with the very real possibility of a serial killer being on the loose in their Historical City, but it was suddenly faced with a potential scandal of such magnitude that it could rock New Orleans back several decades, politically, on its ear!
