On an ordinary Friday evening at his favorite Boston tavern, George Foss's comfortable, predictable life is shattered when a beautiful woman sits down at the bar, a woman who vanished without a trace twenty years ago.

Liana Dector isn't just an ex-girlfriend, the first love George couldn't quite forget. She's also a dangerous enigma and quite possibly a cold-blooded killer wanted by the police. Suddenly, she's back — and she needs George's help. Ruthless men believe she stole some money … and they will do whatever it takes to get it back.

George knows Liana is trouble. But he can't say no — he never could — so he makes a choice that will plunge him into a terrifying whirlpool of lies, secrets, betrayal, and murder from which there is no sure escape.

Six months ago, Ellie was a newlywed, working the dry land in 1880s Texas. Then the desperados came. They raped her and killed her husband, leaving her for dead. But she hunted them down and, along the way, found an inner strength and relentless determination that no man can match. Ellie thought the killing was over … that she'd put her guns away for good to run a ranch that she'd inherited from a legendary Texas Ranger. She was wrong.

A prison wagon is on its way to Huntsville when one of the prisoners, ruthless killer Angel Ware, engineers a bold escape. Now free, and blaming his sister Sue for his arrest, Angel and a gang of three other escaped murderers track her and her family down to Ellie's ranch. Angel and his gang mount a bloody attack and take Sue's young child with them. There's a posse on its way, but Ellie Taine isn't going to wait. She saddles her horse and loads her guns, prepared to enforce the only justice she can rely on … her own.

The suspicious fire that destroyed the shed exposes a surprise corpse — not what ghostwriter Megan Scott and investigative reporter Michael Elliott expected when they reserved a cabin at their friends' lakeside resort in rural Ontario.

Fear overshadows their visit like a looming storm. Their friends are receiving anonymous threatening letters. An elderly resident is reported missing. Locals are wary. They aren't used to outsiders snooping around town, asking questions.

When Michael makes a connection to a cold case, evidence points to an ex-convict looking for revenge. He's had reconstructive surgery. He could be anyone.

Terror blankets the town as the body count mounts. The killer is playing dangerous mind games with everyone — especially with Megan. If she doesn't find him first, she could well become his next victim.

But the obnoxious quickly becomes threatening when the foundation the makeup artist uses burns Robin's face. It wasn't an accident — someone had deliberately doctored with the product.

An adversary with a dark agenda wants to hurt Robin, and the clues point to someone she works with every day. While she frantically tries to put the pieces together and unmask this hidden foe, it becomes terrifyingly clear that the person responsible isn't going to stop until Robin loses everything that matters to her … including her life.

A Spectacle of Corruption by David Liss

A Benjamin Weaver Mystery (2nd in series)

Publisher: Random House

Price: $1.99 (as of 11/08/2016 at 1:00 PM ET).

  

Moments after his conviction for a murder he did not commit, at a trial presided over by a judge determined to find him guilty, Benjamin Weaver is accosted by a stranger who cunningly slips a lockpick and a file into his hands. In an instant he understands two things: Someone had gone to a great deal of trouble to see him condemned to hang — and another equally mysterious agent is determined to see him free …

After a daring escape from eighteenth-century London's most notorious prison, Weaver must face another challenge: how to prove himself innocent of a crime when the corrupt courts have already shown they want only to see him hang. To discover the truth and clear his name, he will have to understand the motivations behind a secret scheme to extort a priest, uncover double-dealings in the unrest among London's dockworkers, and expose the conspiracy that links the plot against him to the looming national election — an election with the potential to spark a revolution and topple the monarchy.

Unable to show his face in public, Weaver pursues his inquiry in the guise of a wealthy merchant who seeks to involve himself in the political scene. But he soon finds that the world of polite society and politics is filled with schemers and plotters, men who pursue riches and power — and those who seek to return the son of the deposed king to the throne. Desperately navigating a labyrinth of politicians, crime lords, assassins, and spies, Weaver learns that, in an election year, little is what it seems and the truth comes at a staggeringly high cost.

An Excerpt from Murder, Curlers and Cream by Arlene McFarlane

We are delighted to welcome author Arlene McFarlane to Omnimystery News today.

Arlene's new first in series mystery is Murder, Curlers and Cream (ParadiseDeer Publishing; November 2016 ebook format) and we are thrilled that she has provided us with a short excerpt to share with our readers.

— ♦ —

YOU WOUND A PERM ROD AROUND a man's what?" Detective Romero stood in the middle of my Mediterranean-styled salon, hand on his gun hip, legs spread wide. His deep voice was laced with cynicism, and his blue eyes pierced me with a look that said now he'd heard everything.
  I know it sounded outrageous, but good lord. It'd been several years since "Local Beautician Valentine Beaumont Uses Perm Rod to Curl Murderer's Gonads" made front page headlines in the Rueland News. Was I ever going to live that down? It was an awful picture of me they'd run too, considering I was soaked in mud and covered in cuts and bruises.
  Besides, there was another crisis at hand. I mean, a dead body had just been removed from the facial bed in Ti Amo — one of my treatment rooms, not thirty feet down the hall. Didn't this detective, in his faded jeans and brown plaid shirt, think that was a little more important?
  I pulled at my tight-knit top, trying not to let him get under my skin. "For the record, that perm rod saved me from being knifed to death. Anyway, it sounds worse than it was."
  "Worse than it was! Lady, that's about as worse as it can get for a man." He blew out a sigh. "I'd love to hear the full story on that one day."
  I smiled sweetly. "If you're nice to me, maybe one day I'll tell it."
  He glared at me, probably not certain if I was being sarcastic or sincere. Frankly, I wasn't sure about that myself.
