To complicate things, a pair of American cops are snooping around, asking questions about her missing father and a fellow detective they can't seem to locate …

When it becomes apparent that her father's secrets extend beyond the small safe in the bathroom wall, Kat races back to Greece, where she discovers the sexy, and very-very-bad-for-her, Detective Nikos Melas has been involved in a deadly stakeout. And Grandma has a new/old enemy who wouldn't mind getting cozy with Kat, especially now that Grandma's reign is growing shorter by the day.

It's a long, hot Greek summer and the bodies are stacking up … and exploding. Everyone on the dark side wants Kat to play on their team. Kat's just trying to find her dad. What's a mostly decent woman to do, and what are these green bits in Grandma's cookies?

Her hands sweating, Alison Shaw stared nervously into the giant seawater tank. One year ago, she and her team of marine biologists had stunned the world with their breakthrough.

Now they were about to do it again.

But an ocean away, something strange was unfolding. Along a lonely coast in South America, an experimental Russian submarine — long thought to have been dismantled — has suddenly resurfaced. And the U.S. Navy has taken notice, sending officers John Clay and Steve Caesare to investigate.

The sub has been studying a group of unmarked soldiers, disappearing into the jungle each night beneath the cover of darkness. Something has been discovered. Something big.

Unfortunately, the soldiers are about to learn that making the find of the century is one thing. Keeping it is another.

Suddenly Behr feels the two cases may be connected, but he is years removed from his life as a legitimate police officer and has few friends left on the force. His relentless focus has always been his greatest strength … and his deepest flaw.

As the death toll rises, it becomes clear Indianapolis has a serial killer in its midst … an invisible average Joe who passes beneath the radar but commits unspeakable acts. Frank Behr's pursuit will lead him to a dark place — and ultimately to a devastating decision from which he will not be able to turn back.

Mabel Wickles has just entered the computer age. And not a minute too soon. With strange lights emanating from the empty house next door, her dear friend Charlie Thompson accused of murdering a woman, and a new sheriff in town who seems totally unqualified, will this senior sleuth use her new little laptop to dig up some clues? After all, she is Parson's Cove's most highly decorated amateur detective. (She's Parson's Cove's only amateur detective.)

But with her best friend Flori Flanders and her computer mentor Nathan Horne to support her, maybe Mabel can solve these seemingly unrelated mysteries and not have to disturb the town's favorite Sheriff — — Reg Smee — — who is just starting to enjoy his retirement in Hawaii. That is, if she can figure out how to crack all the new-fangled computer jargon and save as murder.

The Golden Age of Murder, The Detection Club by Martin Edwards, Now Available at a Special Price

The Detection Club

Publisher: HarperCollins

Price: $1.99 (as of 10/17/2015 at 7:00 PM ET).

The Golden Age of Murder by Martin Edwards, Amazon Kindle format

A real-life detective story, investigating how Agatha Christie and colleagues in a mysterious literary club transformed crime fiction, writing books casting new light on unsolved murders whilst hiding clues to their authors' darkest secrets.

This is the first book about the Detection Club, the world's most famous and most mysterious social network of crime writers. Drawing on years of in-depth research, it reveals the astonishing story of how members such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers reinvented detective fiction.

Detective stories from the so-called "Golden Age" between the wars are often dismissed as cosily conventional. Nothing could be further from the truth: some explore forensic pathology and shocking serial murders, others delve into police brutality and miscarriages of justice; occasionally the innocent are hanged, or murderers get away scot-free. Their authors faced up to the Slump and the rise of Hitler during years of economic misery and political upheaval, and wrote books agonising over guilt and innocence, good and evil, and explored whether killing a fellow human being was ever justified. Though the stories included no graphic sex scenes, sexual passions of all kinds seethed just beneath the surface.

Attracting feminists, gay and lesbian writers, Socialists and Marxist sympathisers, the Detection Club authors were young, ambitious and at the cutting edge of popular culture — some had sex lives as bizarre as their mystery plots. Fascinated by real life crimes, they cracked unsolved cases and threw down challenges to Scotland Yard, using their fiction to take revenge on people who hurt them, to conduct covert relationships, and even as an outlet for homicidal fantasy. Their books anticipated not only CSI, Jack Reacher and Gone Girl, but also Lord of the Flies. The Club occupies a unique place in Britain's cultural history, and its influence on storytelling in fiction, film and television throughout the world continues to this day.

Detective Michael Ross, fresh from helping his old partner with a human trafficking case in Philadelphia, is happy to be back home just in time for Christmas.

Or rather, just in time for another murder — and this one is pretty grisly.

The morning of Christmas Eve, a dumpster has been found leaking dark blood all over the winter slush behind a local business. Lots and lots of blood … too much for the single arm that police discover within. Somebody must be missing more body parts. Police fear they've got a butcher on their hands.

Once again, Detective Ross finds himself wrapped up in an investigation that soon becomes far more complicated than he had expected, and it looks like this might just be a year without a Christmas. And if that doesn't make the case personal enough, the arm ends up pointing him down a winding road he never wanted to travel … straight into his recent past.
