Book Description
A twisted and intricate mystery with secrets that will leave you stunned. Kate Fox, a sheriff with something to prove, must dig through the private lives of the people in her town, including her own brother, to solve her most shocking mystery yet. "...Baker's writing is crisp and delightfully descriptive, her plots intricate, and--best of all--Kate Fox is a wonderful mix of boot-leather toughness and latent vulnerability..." --James Chandler, author of Misjudged With her ex-husband, Ted, working nearby in an adjoining county, Kate Fox is eager to prove she's the better sheriff. And when the less-than-popular ex-foreman of a local ranch is found dead, Kate gets the opportunity she's been looking for. But as it turns out, the case hits a little too close to home. The dead man's body is discovered in Kate's brother Jeremy's truck--and her brother is missing. Evidence left at the crime scene leads Ted to suspect the ranch's new foreman, but Kate isn't convinced he's responsible for the crime. Kate dives into her own investigation. But the mystery only deepens when strange events start taking place and it seems like everyone close to the ex-foreman has secrets to hide and reasons to kill--including Jeremy. As Kate races to eliminate suspects, a shocking realization leads her to the truth. You won't want to miss the secrets that she uncovers. ____________________ Praise for Shannon Baker and EASY MARK: "...Baker knocks the wind out of you...Easy Mark is a stay-up-all-night thriller." --Carolyn Ridder Aspenson, USA Today bestselling author of Damaging Secrets "With a sweep as broad as the sky over the sandhills and a puzzle as knotty as the Fox family tree, Easy Mark takes an already terrific series to a new high." --Catriona McPherson, multi-award-winning author of A Gingerbread House "A non-stop and action-packed drama where the pacing ratcheted up a notch with each chapter read." --Dru's Book Musings "I love reading police procedurals featuring strong, witty women who get the dang job done, especially if the story also gives me a sense of place. Shannon Baker's new novel, Easy Mark, kicks butt in that regard." --LaVonne Griffin-Valade, author of Dead Point "Shannon Baker gets better with every book. A superb read." --Amazon Charts bestselling author Jess Lourey ____________________ What readers are saying: ★★★★★ "...keeps you in suspense!" ★★★★★ "...the best of the series so far." ★★★★★ "...wonderfully complex tale has many plot twists..." ★★★★★ "...an exciting plot with humor and love sprinkled in..." ★★★★★ "Shannon Baker knows how to weave a tale while keeping the suspense high, the characters totally feel like your friends and a story line that will leave you waiting to see what happens next!"

A Spent Bullet
Author: Curt Iles
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1449722326
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Late summer 1941. Louisianas piney woods are engulfed by a tidal wave of soldiers engaged in the largest army maneuvers ever undertaken on American soil. For many of these young men, as well as the isolated Southern communities, life will never be the same. Although no one knows it, our nation will be at war in three months. Elizabeth Reed is a young Louisiana schoolteacher who dislikes soldiers. Harry Miller is a Wisconsin soldier who hates Louisiana. It only makes sense that they should meet and fall in love. Their story begins with a bulletan empty cartridge tossed from a truckload of soldiers. The note inside it will change the destinies of these two young people. In the midst of large-scale battles between the red and blue armies, Harry and Elizabeth are each fighting their own war with dark secrets from their pasts. They have nothing in common except mutual desires to escape these pasts. In spite of clashing at every turn, they run right into each others arms as they jointly learn that the hardest person to forgive is yourself. Within this clash of cultures lies the core message of A Spent Bullet. Rural Louisiana is never the same, and neither are the soldiers who learn about Louisiana mud, mosquitoes, and misery mixed with memorable Southern hospitality. More than a love story, A Spent Bullet recreates a memorable but largely forgotten time in Louisiana and our nations history. Told in the warm and touching style loved by readers of his previous eight books, Curt Iles weaves a story of love, history, and redemption.

Beloved Dog
Author: Maira Kalman
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 014310988X
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
Maira Kalman, with wit and great sensitivity, reveals why dogs bring out the best in us Maira Kalman + Dogs = Bliss Dogs have lessons for us all. In Beloved Dog, renowned artist and author Maira Kalman illuminates our cherished companions as only she can. From the dogs lovingly illustrated in her acclaimed children’s books to the real-life pets who inspire her still, Kalman’s Beloved Dog is joyful, beautifully illustrated, and, as always, deeply philosophical. Here is Max Stravinsky, the dog poet of Oh-La-La (Max in Love)-fame, and her own Irish Wheaton Pete (almost named Einstein, until he revealed himself to be “clearly no Einstein”), who also made an appearance in the delightful What Pete Ate: From A to Z. And of course, there is Boganch, Kalman’s in-laws’ “big black slobbering Hungarian Beast.” And that’s just the beginning. With humor and intelligence, Kalman gives voice to the dogs she adores, noting that they are constant reminders that life reveals the best of itself when we live fully in the moment and extend unconditional love. “And it is very true,” she writes, “that the most tender, complicated, most generous part of our being blossoms without any effort, when it comes to the love of a dog.”

Book Description
Every year, millions of students pay enormous sums to pursue a college education. Most have no idea how easily a single false cheating accusation can derail their dreams. Shocked, shamed, and silenced, they watch their futures crumble in the university kangaroo courts of "academic integrity." Catherine Wagner was an enthusiastic, top-performing student when she unwittingly walked into a trap. She provided authorized aid to a classmate on one part of one homework question, as her professors specifically encouraged. A grader later flagged their answers as "similar," and both students were accused of cheating. Innocent, and certain that she would be exonerated, Catherine had no idea that one professor's reputation for convicting "cheaters" would supersede a fair hearing. Despite the support of eight PhD experts from across the U.S., she was dragged through her university's academic integrity machine on so-called "evidence" of similarities-even something as absurd as simply using "H2O" to abbreviate water. Under threat of expulsion, Catherine was forced to defend her reputation and career prospects. Along the way, she discovered that the University seemed to repeatedly break federal law, spy on her, and reject science in favor of fallacies and falsehoods. Using statistics and behavioral science to scrutinize audio recordings and university emails, Catherine systematically unmasked the unthinkable: a confidence scheme fueling clandestine research on more than 2,000 unsuspecting students for over a decade.
