THE BRADING COLLECTION
by PATRICIA WENTWORTH
Rating: 4.5 #ad
This is a not too shabby locked room mystery. The locked room is a windowless annex to a country club (once the murderee’s private home). It has one door for which there are only two keys, one in the possession of the owner, the other in the hands of his secretary. The approach to the annex is along a glassed in corridor that is lighted at night so that any person using that route may be seen.
Yet one day Lewis Brading is found dead in the annex and it seems that only one man could have murdered him. However Miss Silver is there to make sure that the guilty and not the innocent suffer.

In death, they are purified. Holding his victims under water, he washes away their sins as they struggle for their last breath. Then he exposes them for what they really are: witches, sent to tempt and to corrupt…
Virginia defense attorney Charlotte Wellington doesn’t talk about her childhood—not how she was put to work as a carnival fortuneteller, or her sister’s brutal murder. But now the carnival she escaped all those years ago has come to town. For Charlotte, what’s past is past. But others don’t agree. And as a serial killer terrorizes the area, Charlotte and Detective Daniel Rokov are drawn into a case that becomes terrifyingly personal.

Wolfsbane
by William W. Johnstone
Rating: 4.2 #ad
It had been years since wolfsbane grew on the bayou, yet everyone who lived in Ducros Parish, Louisiana, knew that someday it would appear again. With its pretty yellow flowers and lovely green leaves, wolfsbane was as beautiful as it was deadly. And when the townspeople saw the ancient root once again spring from the earth, they knew it wouldn’t be long before they heard the terrifying howls in the night . . .
There were those who called the tales of wolfsbane superstition, the stuff of childhood legend. But others knew that when the flower blossomed again, so would the spilling of human blood—and there was nowhere to run, nowhere to hide . . .
Princess of Pride
by Caprice Langden
Rating: 5.0 #ad
I spent my life trying to become the perfect image of a mob boss’ daughter, trying to be what everyone assumed I was.
I’ve seen the worst the world has to offer. I watched my father get murdered in the street, but I plastered a red-stained smile on my lips and pretended the fear didn’t exist.
I may be a spoiled Italian princess, used to getting what, and who, I want, but I know I’ll never find a man who can take away my pain. I came close one night, the night I met him, but Sebastian St. Valentine was the last man I could ever give my heart to. After the dark of night faded, my prince became a monster.

“A fantastic novel that any fan of The Witcher will instantly appreciate.” – The Gamer
Reinmar of Bielawa, sometimes known as Reynevan, is a healer, a magician, and according to some, a charlatan. When a thoughtless indiscretion forces him to flee his home, he finds himself pursued

In a time when tensions between Hussite and Catholic countries are threatening to turn into war and mystical forces are gathering in the shadows, Reynevan’s journey will lead him to the Narrenturm—the Tower of Fools.
