Overcommitted committee member Abby McCree gets in a patch of trouble trying to solve the murder of a pumpkin farmer ... The small town of Snowberry Creek, Washington, is gearing up for the Halloween Festival, and naturally Abby is on the planning committee. As part of her duties, she's picking up a pumpkin order from ornery farmer Ronald Minter. But what she finds instead is the farmer in the middle of his corn maze with a knife in his back. The police suspect a homeless veteran named Kevin Montgomery, who was seen arguing with Minter when the farmer accused him of trespassing and stealing pumpkins. Abby's tenant Tripp Blackston, a veteran himself who's been helping Kevin, is sure he's innocent. Together, Abby and Tripp follow the twists and turns of the case to corner the corn maze killer--before someone else meets a dead end ...

    Rome, one evening in May. The streets are full of vehicles and pedestrians. Inside the Ministry of Defense, supervised by the carabinieri, everything appears calm, but during an inspection, the lifeless body of a general is found. Everything suggests that it was an illness, yet the story does not convince Marshal Licata, a great expert in homicides, who begins to investigate. Several twists and turns will impose a halt to the investigations and the skein will only unfold in the last chapter, thanks to Licata's logical shrewdness and investigative intuition. The novel is the first chapter of the series "The investigations of Marshal Licata". It is aimed at a public who loves the Yellow genre, but also to those who wear a uniform and who by reading it, will be able to breathe a "familiar" air.

    Kacey is the new girl in Broken Falls. When she moved in with her father, she stepped into a brand-new life. A life with a stepbrother, a stepmother, and strangest of all, an adoring younger half sister. Kacey s new life is eerily charming compared with the wild highs and lows of the old one she lived with her volatile mother. And everyone is so nice in Broken Falls she s even been welcomed into a tight new circle of friends. Bailey and Jade invite her to do everything with them. Which is why it s so odd when they start acting distant. And when they don t invite her to the biggest party of the year, it doesn t exactly feel like an accident. But Kacey will never be able to ask, because Bailey never makes it home from that party. Suddenly, Broken Falls doesn t seem so welcoming after all especially once everyone starts looking to the new girl for answers.
