The Pine Barrens Stratagem: From the Case Files of Steve Rockfish

by Ken Harris


Private Investigator Steve Rockfish needs cash, like yesterday. The bad news is that yesterday, a global pandemic raged, and Maryland was headed toward a lockdown that would ultimately lead to cheating spouses no longer “working late,” and hence a lack of new clients.

Rockfish's luck changes when a Hollywood producer reaches out, but the job is two states away and involves digging up information on a child trafficking ring from the 1940s. What he uncovers will be used to support the launch of a true crime docuseries. He grabs a mask, hand sanitizer and heads for South Jersey.

On-site, Rockfish meets Jawnie McGee, the great granddaughter of a local policeman gone missing while investigating the original crimes. As the duo uncover more clues, they learn the same criminal alliance has reformed to use the pandemic as a conduit to defraud the Federal Government of that sweet, sweet, stimulus money.

It's not long before the investigation turns up some key intel on a myriad of illicit activity over the last eighty years and Rockfish rockets toward a showdown with the mafia, local archdiocese and dirty cops. COVID-19 isn't the only threat to his health.

---

HE WAS NOT PREPARED.

Born from the fertile imagination of bestselling author Michael Anderle

Fountain of Youth, or Valley of Death?

While eating his supper of microwave popcorn, PhD student-genius Salinger Jacobs is grabbed from his apartment in California, stuck on a C-130 military plane and sent to the Sahara Desert to witness the reality of the ZOO for himself.

With the life expectancy of untrained scientists working inside the ZOO measured in hours, he has a lot to learn.

Fast.

First order of business?

How do you shoot a gun, and just HOW MUCH is that plant worth?

The government needs the best of the best military and scientific minds working out how to pull the secrets from the ZOO, while keeping the deadly fauna and flora in check.

There is one major problem, Salinger doesn't even have a PhD.

If he can stay alive long enough, he might be able to afford something besides packaged microwave popcorn to eat.

THAT IS A BIG IF.

NOTE: There may or may not be gratuitous sex in this book. Or it might actually play into a later book with funny talk about men vs. women's abilities and capabilities. There is ABSOLUTELY cursing in this book. LOTS of upset cursing, cursing out of anger, fear, and other emotional issues related to carnivorous alien flora or fauna-eating humans who don’t say ‘darn.’ LOTS of gratuitous cursing just because the author finds it funny, too. There is death and sadness...and more death. In fact, it’s a blender of blood out in the ZOO. Man vs. alien nature seems to justify ugly results. Plus, people have emotional hang-ups. Expect to smile, laugh, cry, and perhaps have a spate of jealousy or two. Further, there might be explicit sex, thank-you sex, and you're welcome sex. Finally, there is no Coke in the ZOO. That is probably the worst and most offensive trait in these stories. This is Michael Todd, and I approve of the shenanigans pulled in ZOO stories.

by Beth Prentice


From USA Today bestselling author Beth Prentice comes an irresistible series full of romance, mystery, laughter, and just a bit of danger...


When one door closes, another opens… or falls off its hinges!

They say love is blind. Of course, they weren't discussing dilapidated houses, but I'm sticking to this storyline rather than the one where I suspect I'm losing my marbles.

I knew that purchasing a fixer-upper, I would be diving headfirst into the abyss of demolition, dust storms, and a bottomless pit of expenses. What I didn't foresee was the unexpected discovery of an engagement ring and a treasure trove of forbidden love letters hidden beneath the attic floorboards. Not to mention the cat with an undying love for naps and a handyman who looks like he just walked off a magazine cover. Oh, and a stalker? He definitely wasn't on my vision board.

As the house slowly returns to its former glory, those letters persist in haunting my dreams. Who could be the mysterious author, and why was their love forbidden? And who's putting in so much effort to keep me from learning the truth?

Working alongside Riley, the hunky handyman, is like trying to read a book in the midst of a fireworks display – delightfully distracting, but I'm determined to solve this heartstring-tugging puzzle.

Only can I restore the house to its former splendor and unveil the mystery before my relentless stalker catches up with me? Or will I lose everything, including life?


'Dangerous Deeds' introduces you to The Westport Mysteries, a hilarious romantic mystery series that will keep you glued to your seat. If you're a fan of quirky families, thrilling and engaging reads, and a dose of sweet romance served with a twist of danger, this is your ticket to an unforgettable adventure you won't want to miss!
