In Where the Dead Sleep by Joshua Moehling, Packard is the law in this small town. Not that he wants to be, but somebody has to do it. Now a murder takes place and he has to figure out who did it and why. There is no shortage of people who could have done it; but one thing is certain. Whoever did it wants it to stay unsolved. This has good action and kept me turning pages. There is a cliff-hanger ending though, but there will be a next book. (Gerard's review, 5 stars)

"Destroy the Day" by Brigid Kemmerer (Defy the Night #3)
Destroy the Day by Brigid Kemmerer is the third and final book of the Defy the Night series. The second book was Defend the Dawn. This is a great ending to a great series. I absolutely loved most of the characters and all the adventure and action that was in this one. I enjoyed following the romance between Corrick and Tessa and how Corrick matured and changed along the way. The characters in this series were so well developed and I loved the interactions among them all (except for Harristan and Quint--I could do without the gay storyline). This is one I had a hard time putting down and loved the ending and how everything was explained and brought to an end. I highly recommend this series! (Karen's review, 5 stars)
In this book, Harristan is trying to regain his leadership as King, but he will need help! Can he get it in time? This book is narrated by Harristan, Corrick and Tessa. I enjoyed the parts by Corrick and Tessa most. This one was okay but needed a bit more action for my taste. I liked the first two books in this series better, although this one does have a good ending. (Gerard's review 2/5/24, 4 stars)

"First Lie Wins" by Ashley Elston
First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston is about a young girl who can change her looks and her name to get the goods on people. Then her boss can get them to give up their money before their secrets get out. Later in the book, who is conning who? This was an interesting read to say the least and, as usual, I got it wrong. See if you can figure out how this all turns out. Maybe you can do better.

"Till Murder Do Us Part" & "Ramp Up to Murder" by James Patterson
Till Murder Do Us Part by James Patterson actually is two good stories with the other being Ramp up to Murder. In the first story, Katie has been married for 12 years and one day finds out that she really does not know her husband at all.
The second story is about Brandi who moves to Tucson and soon makes a new best friend and a boyfriend. However, things go from bad to worse.
I liked both stories. I flew through this book! (Gerard's review, 5 stars)

"ANNA" by Matthew Blake
In ANNA by Matthew Blake, Anna Ogily is a budding writer. One night while asleep, she stabs to death two people! How can this be? Dr. Benedict Prince is an expert in sleep-related homicides. It will be up to him to figure all this out. This book is wild, but in a good way! It has a great storyline that kept me turning pages quickly. I tried to figure it out, but was all wrong. The last 100 pages or so will leave you breathless! This is a must read--do not miss this one! (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)
