Today, we're pleased to present the following title, now available at a special price courtesy of the publisher, The Witcherley Book Company …

Inspector Hobbes and the Blood by Wilkie Martin

A Comedy Crime Fantasy

Publisher: The Witcherley Book Company

Price: $3.99 (as of 01/16/2016 at 7:00 PM ET).

  

Set in a small Cotswold, Andy, an incompetent reporter, is reluctantly working with Inspector Hobbes, a police detective with a reputation. Andy soon finds himself immersed in a world where not everyone is human, and a late-night visit to a churchyard nearly results in grave consequences, and a ghoulish outcome. An accidental fire leads to Andy having to doss in Hobbes's spare room. Contending with a wave of murder, suicide and robbery, as well as Hobbes's weirdness, is the just the start; he must also get to grips with Mrs Goodfellow, Hobbes's housekeeper, who collects teeth. Although they are mostly from humans, she also claims to have some vampire specimens. However, Andy soon finds her wonderful cooking compensates for her eccentricities.

Despite Andy believing he is coping, he is nearly unhinged by horror when a stressed Hobbes's concealed nature reveals itself in an orgy of bone-crunching. Yet, coming through unscathed, Andy develops respect and admiration for his host, even when he uses weird, occasionally brutal, methods to begin unravelling the mystery, which would appear to link The Order of the Dragon and Vlad Tepes, the original Dracula, to the crime wave.

When Hobbes goes missing, Andy, with the dubious assistance of Dregs, Hobbes's big, bad dog, and armed with a leg of lamb, searches for him. Will he triumph over crazed blood lust and human sacrifice? Can Andy with Hobbes's friends, a binge-drinking dwarf and a troll who looks uncannily human, save the day? And can Andy catch vampirism from false teeth?

Flap Tucker thinks he's got it all worked out. A meditating private eye with curious cosmic talents, Flap prides himself on his ability to step back and put two and two together. But when threatening notes start to turn up at his dear friend Dalliance Oglethorpe's door — along with grisly packages promising worse to come — Flap suddenly finds himself caught up in a personal case he can't step back from. And with Dally acting strangely, Flap soon realizes there is a lot to this world he doesn't know. There's also a lot he needs to find out about himself and the woman he thought he knew best.

A body shows up in the middle of the night and moments later, a man is gunned down right outside the door. Dally assumes Flap has a hand in the murder. And Flap has equal reason to suspect Dally herself. In a frantic quest to resolve their strained relationship, Flap delves wildly into their past in which he recovers old flames, finds new clients and sees through the worst of disguises. If he and Dally are to make it through the long, dark night, Flap must find the real killer, the real motive, and the real truth behind Dally's lost years.

Will he be able to work it out in time before the deadly past catches up with them?

She settles into a beautiful old home with a tragic reputation. There are said to be sightings and sounds from the spirit of a young woman who hanged herself after all her children died there of illnesses in the 1900s.

But soon, Alice experiences firsthand encounters that convince her the spirit is not who people think. The truth is shocking, steeped in the town's distillery history and its legends of a local wizard and witchcraft. As she falls in love with a local farmer whose family legacy is as tangled in the magick and the mystery as her own, Alice's fear becomes not whether the past can be resolved … but whether it's waiting to claim new victims.

A Grace Church Mystery (2nd in series)

Publisher: Camel Press

Price: $4.95 (as of 01/16/2016 at 4:30 PM ET).

  

For many years Father Robert has called the old rectory at Seattle's Grace Church home. No longer. An enterprising volunteer has come up with a scheme to convert it into a thrift store. With great reluctance, the priest moves to a condo, realizing that the struggling Episcopal parish needs the revenue. As predicted, money is soon rolling in. That is, until disaster strikes: one of the employees, a charismatic young man named Nick, is killed execution-style. Though well loved, Nick had a criminal past. Did his past catch up with him, or was he simply in the wrong place at the wrong time?

Detective Joyce Hitchcock and Officer Raymond Chen are on the case, and once again their efforts are bolstered by the colorful staff and members of Grace Church — Father Robert himself, his fiancée Molly, Deacon Mary, manager of the food bank Terry, Lester the formerly homeless sexton, Daniel the organist, Arlis the church secretary, and senior volunteers Lucy and Mae. Other incidents follow — an explosion, vandalism. The already dwindling congregation is being scared away, and Grace Church may soon be history.

Meanwhile Nick's friends and colleagues can't help but wonder: will the killer strike again?

Mike Wingate, abandoned by his father at four and raised in foster care, is finally living the life he always dreamed of — he's happily married with a precocious 8-year-old daughter, and his construction company is about to finish a "green" housing development that will secure a solid future for them all. But then something from his own past, a past he doesn't even remember, comes back to visit terror upon him and his family.

Shady characters begin threatening Mike and, when he reports them, the police seem more interested in Mike's murky past than in protecting him.

Together they will do whatever it takes to protect Mike's family against the hidden men behind the terrifying warning, "You're Next."

Bad Country by C. B. McKenzie

A Rodeo Grace Garnet Mystery (1st in series)

Publisher: Blackstone Audio

Audible Daily Deal Price: $3.95

Winner of the 2013 Tony Hillerman Prize for Best First Novel.

Rodeo Grace Garnet lives with his old dog in a remote corner of Arizona known to locals as El Hoyo. He doesn't get many visitors in The Hole, but a body found near his home has drawn police attention to his front door. The victim is not one of the many undocumented immigrants who risk their lives to cross the border in Rodeo's harsh and deadly "backyard," but a member of a major Southwestern Indian tribe, whose death is part of a mysterious rompecabeza-a classic crime puzzler-that includes multiple murders, cold-blooded betrayals, and low-down scheming, with Rodeo caught in the middle.

Retired from the rodeo circuit and scraping by on piecework as a bounty hunter, warrant server, and divorce snoop, Rodeo doesn't have much choice but to say yes when offered an unusual case. An elderly Indian woman from his own Reservation has hired him to help discover who murdered her grandson, but she seems strangely uninterested in the results. Her attitude seems heartless, but as Rodeo pursues interrelated cases, he learns that the old woman's indifference is nothing compared to true hatred, and aligned against a variety of creative and cruel foes, the hard-pressed PI is about to discover just how far hate can go.
