Forensic Instincts' first order of business is to find out who's targeting their client. Under the leadership of Casey Woods, the investigative team has the resources to do just that, working inside the law — and outside it. FI's strength is its members, among them Casey's associate Marc Devereaux, former navy SEAL and a man who's equal to any situation.

Except maybe this one …

Madeline's case hits too close to home for Marc. She's the only woman he ever loved, and she's his only weakness. Now a nurse at Manhattan Memorial, she's terrified because someone is trying to kill her. So she turns, reluctantly, to Marc and FI for help and protection.

Meanwhile, Manhattan Memorial is in turmoil. With a merger in the works, the staff is still haunted by their hospital administrator's sudden death — during heart surgery performed by Madeline's ex-husband, Conrad. A surgery at which Madeline was present. The killer seems to blame both Madeline and Conrad …

With a growing list of suspects — including the grieving widow and a string of scorned lovers — Forensic Instincts will have to figure out who has the greatest incentive to get rid of Madeline. And FI has to work fast to save her … before she's permanently silenced.

On leave from her forensic artist job, Jenna returns to Nashville, the city where she lost so much. Instead of closure, she finds a new horror. Detective Rick Morgan needs Jenna's expertise in identifying the skeletal remains of a young child. The case jogs hazy half-buried memories — and a nagging dread that Jenna's ordeal hasn't ended.

Now other women are dying. And as the links between these brutal killings and Jenna's past becomes clear, she knows this time, a madman will leave no survivors …

But the future is short-lived for the fortune teller, who is found dead by her crystal ball, strangled with a silk scarf. Standing above her is one of the Vanderbilts' maids, who is promptly taken into police custody. After the frenzy has died down, Consuelo is nowhere to be found. At Alva's request, Emma must employ her sleuthing skills to determine if the vanishing Vanderbilt has eloped with the beau of her choice — or if her disappearance may be directly connected to the murder …

1968. A cunning thief skimmed a half a million dollars from the textile mill that was the beating heart of Riverside, Maine. Sharp-eyed accountant George Desmond discovered the discrepancy, but was killed before he could report it. After stashing the body, the thief-turned-killer manipulated evidence to make it appear Desmond skipped town with the stolen money, ruining his good name forever.

Present Day. Veteran journalist Joe Gale is covering a story for the Portland Daily Chronicle when a skeleton falls at his feet: Desmond's bones have been found in a basement crawl space at the long-shuttered mill. For Joe, digging into the past means retracing the steps his mentor Paulie Finnegan had taken years ago, when the case was still open. But the same people who bird-dogged Paulie four decades ago are watching Joe now. As he closes in on the truth, his every move is tracked … and the murderer proves more than willing to kill again.

Blood of the Vine: Season Three

Blood of the Vine

Season Three

Blood of the Vine: Season Three on DVD

Benjamin Lebel is a luminary in his field: a renowned wine expert who publishes a keenly-awaited new guide every year. When the local police chief enlists his help in the hunt for a serial killer who combines murders with Grand Crus, Benjamin's intuition and his nose are stimulated by the puzzling case. They both prove infallible as he works his own investigation in the sumptuous settings of the wine-growing regions in France. Bitten by the investigative bug and welcomed by the police as an expert, he seeks out new mysteries to solve in the heart of Bordeaux and in the regions of Cognac and Champagne.

Adapted from the crime novels by Jean-Pierre Alaux and Noël Balen, Blood of the Vine is a series of full-bodied, yet light thrillers!

The four episodes in this season include:

The Scam of Saint-Vivant — While on tour in Burgundy, Benjamin is approached by the son of a notable estate owner seeking his professional expertise. He soon finds out that his presence is curiously un-welcomed by the father. To make matters worse, a former employee of the estate is found dead and the police consider everyone as a suspect, including Benjamin himself.

Nightmare in Côtes-de-Nuit — Benjamin is invited as the guest of honor to a wine-tasting event in Burgundy. He luckily avoids a fatal poisoning after an unexpected guest shows up and demands Benjamin's seat at the table. It would seem that Benjamin was the obvious target, but he has serious doubts after he starts investigating into the victim's life and business.

Late Vengeance in Alsace — A journalist is killed in Alsace while investigating an old client of Benjamin's. The local police ask for Benjamin s help after discovering that the victim had recently contacted him for information. Benjamin finds clues in the midst of a dispute between his old client and the client's neighbor over land purchases and a shared insect infestation.

The Mystery of the Yellow Wine — Benjamin accompanies his wife France on her business trip to oversee a vineyard acquisition. Upon arrival they learn that a local yellow winemaker was recently found dead as a result of suicide. As much as Benjamin wants to relax, he can't help but investigate the allegations of the winemaker's murder and the motive surrounding his inheritance.

Sent to Chicago to investigate a purported terror plot, she soon discovers that the threat is very real, and much greater than anyone has anticipated. As a result, Annie finds herself swept into an international mission that will take her from Venezuela to Argentina to France and many points in between. Along the way, she'll continue to cross paths with Arthur's new boss, Ryan McQuaid (Nic Bishop), a charismatic Navy SEAL-turned-CEO with his own ties to the terrorist — and his own secrets.

A Conversation with Mystery Author Leslie Dana Kirby

Omnimystery News: Author Interview with Leslie Dana Kirby

We are delighted to welcome author Leslie Dana Kirby to Omnimystery News today.

Leslie's debut novel is The Perfect Game (Poisoned Pen Press; March 2015 hardcover, trade paperback and ebook formats) and we recently had the opportunity to spend some time with her talking about it.

— ♦ —

Omnimystery News: Introduce us to the lead characters in The Perfect Game. And is this the first of a series?

Leslie Dana Kirby: The Perfect Game is my first novel. I am currently working on my second novel, which is not a sequel per se. Like The Perfect Game, my second book is a mystery set in Phoenix, Arizona. While both feature strong female protagonists, the main characters have changed altogether. The Perfect Game follows a young, sweet, and naive emergency room doctor as she encounters a family tragedy while the protagonist in my second book is a more seasoned, self-confident detective. However, I do plan to bring back my prosecutor, This tickles me because my opinionated, sharp-tongued prosecutor is one of my favorite characters. It's just a shame that she only has a supporting role in both of these books. Maybe she'll get a chance to take more of a main role in the future! Generally, I expect my books to feature an ordinary woman dealing with extraordinary circumstances, which is why they aren't likely to reappear: once they survive a crazy situation, they get to return to their normal lives and "live happily ever after."

OMN: Into which fiction genre would you place your book?

LDK: As a first-time author, I found it difficult to categorize The Perfect Game. Generally it is a mystery, but it has elements of police procedural, courtroom drama, thriller, romance, and women's contemporary. My second book, which is in progress, is more clearly a police procedural. Overall, I'd like all of my books to feature a female protagonist who behaves admirably under challenging circumstances.

OMN: Tell us something about The Perfect Game that isn't mentioned in the publisher's synopsis.

LDK: I'm loathe to say too much about the plot because there are a few twists and turns that I don't want to give away. It was even quite a challenge for me to write the book flap summary, but I will say this: I am willing to bet that you can't predict the ending!

OMN: How much of your own personal or professional experience have you included in the book?

LDK: I'm a psychologist and I have always been intrigued by deviant human behavior. For that reason, there are many concepts in The Perfect Game that have been ripped from the headlines. I can't stand an unsolved mystery or unsatisfactory outcome; writing fiction allows me to pull it all together in a more rewarding manner than real life usually allows!

OMN: Tell us a little more about your writing process.

LDK: This is such a great question because I always love to hear how other authors answer it. There are authors who outline everything in meticulous detail and others who swear the book just unfolds gradually as they write. My style is somewhere in the middle; I have a pretty good general outline of the beginning, middle, and end, but the details evolve as I write. I did find it interesting that some of my characters became more central and interesting than I originally imagined.

OMN: How do you go about researching the plot points of your stories?

LDK: Thank goodness for the internet! I can't imagine how authors did their fact-checking before the internet. I often found myself researching details right in the middle of my writing process. However, the internet may be a somewhat mixed blessing. I would hop on the web to double-check one small item and the next thing I knew, hours had passed. While most of my research was done on the internet, I also consulted with doctors, police officers, lawyers and baseball afficionados. I also personally visited some of the locations featured in my book.

OMN: You mentioned that your books are set in Phoenix. How true are you to the setting?

LDK: Phoenix is where I live. I have always enjoyed books where the setting was accurately depicted so I have worked hard to achieve that with my novel. While the location isn't incredibly important to the plot or characters, I did enjoy setting the book in Phoenix, a city that I know and love!

OMN: If we could send you anywhere in the world, all expenses paid, to research the setting for a book, where would it be?

LDK: Hmm … my next book is set right here in Phoenix so I don't really need to travel anywhere to research it. However, it would be lovely to take those "expenses" as my salary so I could just devote myself to my writing and spend some time exploring and researching Phoenix. That would be amazing!

OMN: What are some of your outside interests?

LDK: I adore reading. If you gave me a day to do anything I wanted, I would probably choose reading every time. I would be hard-pressed to decide whether I enjoy reading or writing more. Fortunately, I don't have to choose between them, but I would love to make a full-time job out of either or both!

OMN: What is the best advice you've received as an author?

LDK: Ah, I love this question, but I don't feel like I have a good answer to it. Becoming an author was so much more challenging than I ever imagined, but I would love to encourage others to pursue writing if that is their passion. My best advice would be to 1) just do it and sit down and write, 2) develop a thick skin because you have to be able to accept criticism, and 3) be persistent.

OMN: Complete this sentence for us: "I am a mystery author and thus I am also …".

LDK: I am a mystery author and thus I also have a somewhat strange and deviant mind. Or maybe that is actually the other way around!

OMN: Tell us how you came up with the title.

LDK: The Perfect Game features a professional baseball player who pitches a perfect game in the book. But as you might image, the "perfect game" is a double-entendre for the matching of wits between two formidable opponents.

OMN: What kind of feedback have you received from readers?

LDK: I love it when readers tell me that they could not put my book down. As a writer, it is my goal to take the reader on such an interesting journey that they don't want to stop reading until the final resolution. To me, that is the ultimate compliment.

OMN: Suppose The Perfect Game were to be adapted for television or film. Who do you see playing the key roles?

LDK: I have a vivid mental image of how my characters look. Unfortunately, there are not actors that are a perfect match, but I would love to see Emma Stone as my protagonist (Lauren), Zac Efron as the baseball player (Jake), and Sandra Bullock as the prosecutor (Candace). I can't quite decide who would play my detective (Ryan), but I think it could be Ben Affleck, Josh Duhamel, Theo James, or Liam Hemsworth.

OMN: Have any specific authors influenced how and what you write today?

LDK: One of my favorite books of all time was Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow. That book has a spectacular moment where the reader wonders if they have been misinterpreting everything all along. I wanted to write a book that created a similar moment … and many readers have commented on that sinking moment in The Perfect Game where you realize that perhaps everything is not as you imagined.

OMN: You mentioned that you're an avid reader. What kinds of books do you enjoy reading?

LDK: I love to read and deeply regret that I don't have more time to do so. I sometimes feel actually sad about all the books I won't be able to read. I enjoy a wide variety of genres though I have a strong affinity for books that I would characterize as psychological thrillers such as Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train, Presumed Innocent, and Before I Go to Sleep. However, I have also recently developed a new appreciation for non-fiction and I really loved Unbroken and 12 Years a Slave.

OMN: What's next for you?

LDK: I'm working on my second novel, which has a working title of Karma. It's about a female detective, named Brit, who investigates a missing child case, which quickly captivates a national audience. I'm enjoying this protagonist, who is more mature and self-confident that the main character in my first book. Though I loved Lauren in The Perfect Game, Karma's Brit is much sassier.

Lauren Rose has recently moved to Phoenix to begin a new life as she starts a prestigious emergency medicine residency, but she could end up doing life in the Arizona State penitentiary instead.

Lauren has always lived in the shadow of her more glamorous sister Liz, the wife of baseball superstar Jake Wakefield. But when Liz is found viciously murdered in her Scottsdale home, the spotlight turns to Lauren as prime suspect in the high-profile investigation. Having lost both parents at an early age, Liz's death leaves Lauren all alone in a new city. Jake's support proves invaluable as she navigates the nightmare her life has become.

As Lauren spends time with Jake, they develop a closeness that she finds both comforting and confusing. It's an intimacy forged by their shared grief, their mutual love of baseball, and by the thrill of him pitching a perfect game for the Diamondbacks.

Meanwhile, the Scottsdale police repeatedly question Lauren. She objects to a lie detector test as bad science. An arrest warrant is issued. The ensuing trial leads the evening news every night as a rabid public just can't get enough of the sordid proceedings, quickly dubbed The Trial of the Millennium. Will the outcome be influenced by this media circus?

Coup d'Etat by Ben Coes, Amazon Kindle formatCoup d'Etat by Ben Coes, Kobo format

Wanting only a peaceful, obscure life, Dewey Andreas has gone to rural Australia, far from turbulent forces that he once fought against. But powerful men, seeking revenge, have been scouring the earth looking for Dewey. And now, they've finally found him — forcing Dewey to abandon his home and to fight for his life against a very well armed, well trained group of assassins.

Meanwhile, a radical cleric has been elected president of Pakistan and, upon taking power, sets off a rapidly escalating conflict with India. As the situation spins quickly out of control, it becomes clear that India is only days from resorting to a nuclear response, one that will have unimaginably disasterous results for the world at large. With only days to head this off, the President sends in his best people, including Jessica Tanzer, to do whatever it takes to restore the fragile peace to the region. Tanzer has only one viable option — to set up and execute a coup d'etat in Pakistan — and only one man in mind to lead the team that will try to pull off this almost unimaginable task in the nerve-wrackingly short time frame, Dewey Andreas. If, that is, Jessica can even get to Dewey and if Dewey can get out of Australia alive …

Fragile by Lisa Unger, Amazon Kindle format

Everybody knows everybody in The Hollows, a quaint, charming town outside of New York City. It's a place where neighbors keep an eye on one another's kids, where people say hello in the grocery store, and where high school cliques and antics are never quite forgotten. As a child, Maggie found living under the microscope of small-town life stifling. But as a wife and mother, she has happily returned to The Hollows's insular embrace. As a psychologist, her knowledge of family histories provides powerful insights into her patients' lives. So when the girlfriend of her teenage son, Rick, disappears, Maggie's intuitive gift proves useful to the case — and also dangerous.

Eerie parallels soon emerge between Charlene's disappearance and the abduction of another local girl that shook the community years ago when Maggie was a teenager. The investigation has her husband, Jones, the lead detective on the case, acting strangely. Rick, already a brooding teenager, becomes even more withdrawn. In a town where the past is always present, nobody is above suspicion, not even a son in the eyes of his father.

The Fairyland Murders by J. A. Kazimer, Amazon Kindle format

Not all endings are happy …

Blue Reynolds knows the darker side of New Never City — the side that's hopped-up on fairy dust and doesn't care if your house gets blown down. Rent's due and his PI business is all but make believe. But even Blue shudders at having to chase after Isabella Davis, a freckle-nosed redhead five feet tall on her tip-toes … if you don't count the pretty pink wings.

Izzy is tough, and sneaky, and not too thrilled with the idea of being the new tooth fairy. The last six have been most gruesomely extracted. But Blue has a feeling that whoever is killing the tooth fairies is worse than your standard big bad psycho. The fairy council is hiding something. The Shadows are moving out into the light. And Blue is saddled with a shocking power that could take out half of New Never City …
