Book Basset

A killer pie, a tight-knit squad, an ex who won’t quit, and one sassy cat.

Maddie never expected to find her best friend’s body — let alone be accused of the crime. Now, she’s in a race against time to clear her name before she ends up behind bars… or the real killer strikes again.

With her ride-or-die gal pals by her side — and a feisty feline with a nose for trouble — Maddie dives into the case. But things get complicated when her ex, the town sheriff, keeps getting in the way. He may be as confused as she is, but the real question is: does he believe she’s innocent?

Baking may be Maddie’s specialty, but solving a murder isn’t as easy as pie.

Wisdom is the reward for surviving our own stupidity…
In the years since the end of The Herald War, the world has become complacent despite Catrin Volker’s warnings. When the darkness of her visions comes to pass, no one is prepared, and the fate of humanity will rest in her hands.

Humanity is not alone.

When all of the lower orbital satellites stop working, everyone is plunged into an apocalyptic world. Isolated in the small Texas town of Alpine, the Chihuahuan desert provides a natural buffer against a world gone mad. But some see the collapse as a chance to grab power, allies, and resources. Those people, left unchecked, could usher in the destruction of the place Keme calls home.

He’s the hottest country rock star in the country whose reputation needs repaired.

Maria Del Camino grew up in Washington Heights- where the music’s loud, love cuts deep, and corner bodegas feel like home- until her brother is gunned down and the fog comes.

One moment she’s crossing the George Washington Bridge, the next she’s spinning through time. With every jump, it brings her closer to the hand that pulled the trigger — and the truth waiting in the fog may be more dangerous than the bullet that killed him.

He wasn’t supposed to fall for her.
She wasn’t supposed to need him.
But sometimes love shows up when you least expect it.

Claire Kaminski teaches spin with grit and passion, pushing her riders harder than she pushes herself. She’s worked hard to rebuild her life — staying grounded, avoiding risk, and never, ever getting involved at work.

Gavin Briggs is the future of his family’s nationwide fitness club franchise. He plays by the rules, including the one that says no dating employees.

But when a late-night emergency forces Claire into his guest room and into his heart, they’re both in for the ride of a lifetime.

What is Butterball the Poodle up to now?

She helps to prepare for Christmas and sees shiny balls on the Christmas tree but Butterball cannot stop thinking about those shiny balls.

Will she make a mistake? Will Butterball get her surprise?

A retired school teacher, Mildred Budge just wants to live a quiet life in her hometown of Cloverdale. But retirement does not mean she can say no to a friend–not a friend in trouble. Mildred Budge knows how. A disciplined woman, Mildred can breathe the word “no” to a second cup of ice cream. Can resist drinking too much champagne. But when it comes right down to a friend needing a favor, she may say no first, but if someone really needs her — really needs her! — she always said yes.

That’s how Mildred ended up with strangers camped out in her spare bedroom while helping her friend Fran to start a new business at the antique emporium.

The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 had dealt a catastrophic blow to the United States Navy, but it had not knocked out all of the U.S. carriers. That was an omission that Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, Japan’s fleet commander, intended to rectify by invading a site close to Pearl Harbor. The surprise attack on Pearl Harbor had worked out well for the Japanese — why not try another one on Midway Island? What Yamamoto didn’t know was that Japanese fleet codes had been broken and Pacific Fleet Commander Admiral Chester Nimitz, privy to what the Japanese planned to do, was able to place the American carriers where they would catch the Japanese off guard as they prepared to launch air strikes on Midway Island.

After the Battle of Midway, the Japanese were forced into the position of trying to defend the territory that they had previously taken; their dreams of expanding their acquisitions and becoming the dominant power in the Pacific were gone. The tide of war in the Pacific had shifted.
