It’s Christmas Eve’s Eve and the panic is setting in. I have finished all my Christmas shopping, but now I am second guessing my gift choice ideas. The Ooompa Loompa Statue and the Chia pet of Scoopy Doo’s Head are starting to feel like a bad idea. I might have been riding the high of just getting my shopping done that I might not have been as picky about my gift choices as I should have been. It’s too late now. I don’t think I am strong enough to go back out there and shop with the last minute shoppers. They are a whole different breed of shopper. They are strong, powerful, and a tad bit crazy. You can’t go out shopping this close to Christmas without a few mad skills….or a shield.

MURDER, MARDI GRAS–AND MORE SECRETS THAN BEADS…

It’s Mardi Gras in New Orleans, and civic leader and socialite Chauncy St. Amant has been crowned Rex, King of Carnival. But his day of glory comes to an abrupt and bloody end when a parade-goer dressed as Dolly Parton guns him down. Is the killer his aimless, promiscuous daughter Marcelle? Homosexual, mistreated son Henry? Helpless, alcoholic wife Bitty? Or some unknown player? Turns out the king had enemies… Enter resourceful heroine Skip Langdon, a rookie police officer and former debutante turned cynic of the Uptown crowd. Scouring the streets for clues, interviewing revelers and street people with names like Jo Jo, Hinky, and Cookie, and using her white glove contacts, the post-deb rebel cop encounters a tangled web of brooding clues and ancient secrets that could mean danger for her — and doom for the St. Amants.

Langdon, with her weight worries, insecurities, and yet overall toughness has long been a favorite of those who like their female sleuths bold, smart, and refreshingly human.

Wilson Abby’s life as a carefree programmer has reached a crossroads. Since birth, Wilson has known unconditional comfort and security in a global super-community.

There, far from the probing gaze of the NEXUS, a beautiful scientist is busy playing God — with monstrous consequences. The Pedestal is a thrilling glimpse into a society madly infatuated with integration and endless consumer upgrades. Wilson must battle gangsters, conspiring politicians and hordes of flesh-eating creations before civilization is toppled from its pedestal.

In a time long before history as we know it, the earth was divided into The Four Quadrants.
