Uncharted Territory by Carolyn Ridder Aspenson, Amazon Kindle format

Suburban housewife Angela Panther didn't want to communicate with the dead, but the universe had other plans …

When an unidentified fourteen-year-old boy takes a dive off an interstate overpass, to solve the case, Atlanta area detective Aaron Banner calls on some unlikely help — from psychic medium Angela Panther. Banner knows she's legit, and knows she'll get to the truth about his junior John Doe — was the boy's death suicide, or murder? The problem is, the spirit can't remember who he was or the night he died, and to make matters worse, he doesn't care. Instead, he convinces Angela to focus on another spirit, one different from Angela's usual, garden-variety ghost.

To complicate matters, Angela's best friend Mel, newly single and on the prowl, has her sights set on the sexy Detective Banner, and Angela's mother drives her even more crazy dead than alive.

To solve the dead duo's dilemmas, armed with little more than their double lattés and a tiny pink bottle of wannabe pepper spray, Angela and her sex-starved sidekick Mel must venture into the dark underbelly of Atlanta and come face-to-face with a gang of saggy-pantsed hoodlums ready to take them out. Will they make it out alive, or end up pushing up daisies alongside the spirits they're trying to help?

The Chocolate Falcon Fraud by JoAnna Carl, Amazon Kindle formatThe Chocolate Falcon Fraud by JoAnna Carl, Nook formatThe Chocolate Falcon Fraud by JoAnna Carl, iTune iBook formatThe Chocolate Falcon Fraud by JoAnna Carl, Kobo format

The Warner Pier tourism board is kicking off its Tough Guys and Private Eyes film festival with The Maltese Falcon, and Lee Woodyard and her Aunt Nettie are preparing a delicious chocolate noir tie-in at TenHuis Chocolade. What Lee isn't prepared for is a face from the past: Jeff Godfrey, her former stepson. The last time Jeff showed up in town, he wound up being accused of murder. Now he says he's only in Warner Pier to see Bogart on the big screen. Honest.

Jeff may now be a college grad, but that doesn't mean he's any less naïve than the kid Lee had to bail out of trouble earlier. There are all those strange phone calls, a girlfriend who's secretly on Jeff's tail, and a pack of suspicious-sounding acquaintances right out of Dashiell Hammett. Then Jeff goes missing, the Falcon theme is haunting everyone, and a body falls at Lee's feet when she opens the front door — just like in the movie.

Now Lee is under deadline to rewrite the ending of a cunning killer's increasingly convincing murder plot …

Gone to Sea in a Bucket by David Black, Amazon Kindle format

Like all young men of a certain age, Harry Gilmour had his own notion of how a naval battle should be. This wasn't it …

Norway, 1940: Sub Lieutenant Harry Gilmour's first encounter with battleship action is not the adventure he had hoped for. Faced with a thankless task and ill equipped to handle it, Gilmour's inexperience leads to a damning allegation. His future hangs in the balance.

But then Lieutenant Peter Dumaresq steps in to offer him a lifeline — an advanced navigation course that will take him aboard a crack submarine, HMS Pelorus, under the command of a Royal Navy hero. Faced with a possible court martial, Harry chooses life underwater. Once aboard, however, Harry is confronted for the first time by the full horror of submarine warfare. If he can just overcome his fears, it will be the making of him.

Because survival itself is the challenge now. For Harry and the rest of the crew, the next depth charge could be the one that sinks them.

When Eva and Dan respond to a call for help from the island's oldest oyster company, they expect a simple case finally allowing them a much needed break in the sun. But nothing stays simple for long …

Old oyster farmer John Musset proves to be a very awkward client with more enemies than friends, accusing his competitor Dennis Hartman of sabotaging his business. Much-loved environmental campaigner Alf Craddock disappears and Eva and Dan discover they are being watched. They soon become embroiled in something much more than sinister than sabotage …

From the moment Craddock disappears two lines of inquiry emerge. One they will get paid for. The other is their moral duty. Why has the old man disappeared? What is killing Mersea Island's centuries-old oyster business? Who is watching Dan and Eva's every move?

They must discover and eliminate the source of the danger before any more damage is done. Because this kind of crime can kill — and go on killing …

And all the while trouble is brewing back at home …
