I’m not exactly sure how to write this. I think you are all entitled to an update on the piggies. I’m just going to come out and say it. Henry might be a girl. Now I am not confirming he is a girl, but I have my suspicions. He has been acting kinda weird. Doing strange little dances that Coco seems to enjoy. I could just be reading the signs wrong, but if I find additional piggies popping up in that cage (beside any I sneak in) I am going to freak out! I’m not ready to be a grandma yet.

SOUND OF BLOOD: In this, the first Jake Scarne thriller, the rogue New York City cop turned private eye is sent to Florida by a grieving father to uncover the truth about his son’s death — only to be caught in a chain reaction of revenge involving a financial empire built on murder, sex and fraud. Bodies pile up as Scarne finds himself in the crosshairs of a powerful media baron, vicious mobsters, homicide cops, the F.B.I. – and a beautiful, amoral woman. This is the rare novel that has some critics praising it as a terrific financial thriller and others likening it to JAWS. But at the novel’s heart is a tragic love story that tests the boundaries of loyalty and loss. With crucial and colorful scenes set in New York, Florida, Georgia, Seattle, Argentina and the Caribbean, SOUND OF BLOOD will hook you right up to its last, stunning twist.

MADMAN’S THIRST: In his second outing, private eye Jake Scarne, haunted by his last case, has been letting himself go physically and mentally, content to cash easy paychecks. But then his best friend asks for a favor he can’t refuse. Seeking personal and professional redemption, Scarne sets out to find out who is behind the rape and murder of young girl. The police are convinced the brutal crime was random. But right from the start Jake knows better. The only problem: He can never reveal the source of his information. The one person, a stone killer who can prove what really happened, has disappeared. He may even be dead. The seemingly hopeless search pits Scarne against another killer, an assassin for the ages, whose billionaire employer, conspiring with a foreign power, cannot afford to have the girl’s murder solved.

Desperation drives Alexa to make a deal with the one person who can guide her, a man she loathes, Harley Kayson. He just so happens to be the sire of her vampire lover, Arys Knight. To say Arys is pissed about this would be putting it lightly.

When Arys teams up with his sire to revisit their sordid past, the pain he and Alexa inflict on one another rises to a scathing boil.

For Alexa’s vampire lover, Arys Knight, it takes a personal twist and soon becomes clear there’s something he’s not sharing. Something that could unlock the mystery of where their power comes from and why it is so deadly.
