Exhibit No. Thirteen by Roderic Jeffries

A Courtroom Drama

Publisher: Endeavour Press

Price: $3.99 (as of 08/29/2015 at 6:30 PM ET).

  

When a body of young girl is found raped and murdered in a wood in Kent, Detective Sergeant Rusk must interview the few men in the area with a history of sexual offences. Among them he finds Kremayne, a name he remembers from his school days. Back then, Kremayne had left little impression on him. Is it any wonder? Rusk was popular and athletic; Kremayne was awkward, an outcast.

Rusk can't help but feel a sting of jealousy when Kremayne turns out to be wealthy and happily married. The allegations against him, Kremayne insists, were brought on by an hysterical individual out to ruin him. Only when Rusk gets close to Kremayne's wife Anne, does he suspect that there is more to their cozy life than meets the eye. Beneath the surface, how happy is their marriage? How twisted is Kremayne? Or has Rusk compromised himself with Anne to the point that now the best result would be to find Kremayne guilty?

It's up to Serenity and her ex-Amish boyfriend, Daniel Bachman, to discover the truth about the new shaman-type medicine man who's brought his dark secrets to Blood Rock.

But Serenity has secrets of her own, and if she and Daniel don't work it out, the reappearance of a woman from his past could threaten to ruin their relationship.

The deeper Serenity delves into the magical world of Amish herbal medicine, the phenomenon of laying of the hands and other cultural healing oddities, the more she wonders if miracles are real. What she witnesses with her own eyes may be too fantastical for her to believe.

Have you ever watched a baseball game where tempers escalated and you feared that retaliation by one side could result in an incident with serious injury?

What would happen in today's society if a player were critically injured in such a circumstance? What if the unthinkable occured and the player died? Is it just a tragic part of the game? Or could it actually be murder?

It is up to veteran prosecutor Jaime Brooks to investigate the matter and handle the prosecution. What began as a feud between two teams ends in a shocking criminal case and ensuing trial when the pitcher is investigated for murder.

Brooks must confront a possible criminal conspiracy among team members, an uncompromising widow bent on avenging her husband's death, corruption in the grand jury, and a national debate over the inherent risks of baseball and the accountability of its players. Should the pitch and its result be handled by the baseball commissioner, or is it a crime to be prosecuted in the courts?

Lucy's getting very annoyed that her husband Bill and his friend Evan have been working seemingly nonstop on their potentially prize-winning pumpkin catapult. But when the day of the big contest arrives, Evan is nowhere to be found … until a catapulted pumpkin busts open the trunk of the Dodge. Amid the pumpkin gore is a very deceased Evan, bashed in the head and placed in the trunk by someone long before the contest started.

Bill is on the hook for the Halloween homicide — he was the last one to see Evan — so Lucy knows she's got some serious sleuthing to do. The crime's trail seems to always circle back to Country Cousins, the town's once-quaint general store that's now become a big Internet player. Though the store's founder, Old Sam Miller, is long gone, his son Tom and grandson Trey now run the hugely successful company. But whispered rumors say things aren't going well, and Lucy finds that this case may have something to do with an unsolved, decades-old Miller family mystery …

With each new lead pointing her in a different direction, Lucy sees that time is quickly running out. If she wants to spook the real killer, she'll have to step into an old ghost story …

Fur Ball Fever, A Romantic Crime Mystery by Maureen Fisher, Now Available at a Special Price

Omnimystery News is always searching for newly discounted mystery, suspense, thriller and crime novels for our readers to enjoy.

Today, we're pleased to present the following title, now available at a special price courtesy of the author …

Fur Ball Fever by Maureen Fisher

A Romantic Crime Mystery

Publisher: Maureen Fisher

Price: 99¢ (as of 08/29/2015 at 1:00 PM ET).

  

After a lifetime of impetuous mistakes, Jersey Shore pet spa owner Grace Donnelly outdoes herself when a client's prize poodle, a shoo-in to win the annual Fur Ball, goes AWOL while in her custody. With money, careers, and lives in jeopardy, Grace is not afraid to strap on the leather to go undercover in a fetish club looking for clues. Too bad her helpers consist of an aging hippie aunt, a renegade schnauzer, a drag queen, and a dominatrix or two. Worst of all, the only man truly qualified to help is her former flame, the most domineering male on the eastern seaboard.

Texas-born security specialist Nick Jackson faces his worst nightmare when Grace's amateur investigation nearly blows his covert operation. Unless he nails the con-artist who scammed his home-town's seniors and whacked a witness, his homicidal granddaddy will take justice into his own liver-spotted hands. To salvage his case, his sanity, and his ex-lover's velvety skin, Nick joins forces with the sassy crusader who rubs him the wrong way — and so many right ways too.

Action bounces from the upscale Shore community of Saltwater Estates to a beach harboring washed-up corpses, a fancy yacht no honest preacher could possibly afford, and the bawdiest nightclub in Atlantic City. Hazards multiply like bunnies, culminating in fun, danger, romance … and a Fur Ball extravaganza the locals will never forget.

The Burning Wire by Jeffery Deaver

A Lincoln Rhyme Mystery (9th in series)

Publisher: Simon & Schuster

Kobo Daily Deal Price: $1.99 (price-matched by Amazon)

  

The weapon is invisible and omnipresent. Without it, modern society grinds to a halt. It is electricity. The killer harnesses and steers huge arc flashes with voltage so high and heat so searing that steel melts and his victims are set afire.

When the first explosion occurs in broad daylight, reducing a city bus to a pile of molten, shrapnel-riddled metal, officials fear terrorism. Rhyme, a world-class forensic criminologist known for his successful apprehension of the most devious criminals, is immediately tapped for the investigation. Long a quadriplegic, he assembles NYPD detective Amelia Sachs and officer Ron Pulaski as his eyes, ears and legs on crime sites, and FBI agent Fred Dellray as his undercover man on the street. As the attacks continue across the city at a sickening pace, and terrifying demand letters begin appearing, the team works desperately against time and with maddeningly little forensic evidence to try to find the killer. Or is it killers … ?

Meanwhile, Rhyme is consulting on another high-profile investigation in Mexico with a most coveted quarry in his crosshairs: the hired killer known as the Watchmaker, one of the few criminals to have eluded Rhyme's net.

Juggling two massive investigations against a cruel ticking clock takes a toll on Rhyme's health. Soon Rhyme is fighting on yet another front — and his determination to work despite his physical limitations threatens to drive away his closest allies when he needs them most …

Review: Over Their Heads by J. B. Kohl and Eric Beetner

A Mysterious Review of Over Their Heads by J. B. Kohl and Eric Beetner.

Review summary: This is a most interesting crime novel with some dark comedic elements to it. Crisply written from the points of view of four characters, the story moves along briskly but then tends to drag a little towards the end before being rapidly wrapped up in a slightly too tidy manner. Even so, the journey is well worth taking. (Click here for text of full review.)

Our rating:

Over Their Heads
J. B. Kohl and Eric Beetner
Down & Out Books (June 2015)

Publisher synopsis: The drugs are missing and four lives are about to collide …

Clyde just wanted to make a little extra cash on the side to raise his new baby. Now his life and the lives of his wife and newborn daughter are in jeopardy.

Brent just wanted to do his job and be left alone. Now he's in a race against time for his life.

Sean just wanted to escape the crime he committed in Detroit. Now he's stumbled into another. The money he embezzled is nothing compared the load of narcotics that fell into his lap.

And Skeeter? Well, Skeeter wants the drugs back, and he'll use any means necessary to get them.

When these four are let loose on a mad scramble to locate the drugs, they cut a path of mayhem and bloodshed across Virginia. Inept would-be criminals clash with ruthless drug dealers in a violent weekend where no one is safe.

The only certainty: Everyone is in over their heads.
