Book Description
A murder on a quiet street in Albuquerque leads a psychic amateur sleuth and her FBI agent husband into an investigation of stolen government secrets. Trouble always seems to find Harrie McKinsey. From the darkness that haunts her dreams at night, to the morning she discovers a toddler sitting in the flower bed on her front porch, covered in blood. A search for the little girl’s parents leads Harrie and her husband, FBI agent DJ Scott, into a grisly murder investigation of the child’s father, a computer lab employee at Sandia National Labs with a security clearance at the highest government levels. Whatever Katie’s father knew, it led to his brutal death. And now with the child’s life at stake, Harrie won’t sit still until the killer is caught. Along with DJ, her best friend Ginger, and Ginger’s husband, Harrie is drawn into a world where there are those who would stop at nothing shy of theft, kidnapping, and murder to gain power. Harrie might just be in over her head this time. But that doesn’t stop her from pursuing a killer who intends to make her his final victim. “Filled with tension and suspense. . . . This is Patricia Wood’s best book yet.” —Joseph Badal, Hillerman Prize–winning author of Ultimate Betrayal

The Easter Egg Murder
Author: Patricia Smith Wood
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504090675
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
In a mystery inspired by a historical murder, best friends become amateur sleuths when a senator’s memoir reveals secrets someone would kill to keep quiet. Why was a US senator suddenly writing a book about an unsolved murder that happened fifty years ago? Dynamic duo Harrie McKinsey and Ginger Vaughn know the story is bound to stir up trouble, especially since the ruthless killing on Easter Sunday in 1950 led to the end of illegal casinos in New Mexico. Eager to tell the tale, the two ambitious editors take on the high profile project. But just moments after the Albuquerque press announces the news of the senator’s upcoming exposé, a person closely connected to the case is killed, and another narrowly escapes death. Suddenly Harrie and Ginger are not just editing the story but racing to get to the bottom of it. Uncovering the clues pits Ginger against her overprotective husband, and Harrie against an attractive FBI agent who would prefer she keep her pretty nose out of it. But Harrie is having mysterious dreams about the murder victims, so she feels an urgency to stay on the case, even if it means confronting a cold-blooded killer intent on silencing Harrie and Ginger forever. “Patricia Smith Wood deftly guides you through this thrilling tale to its surprise conclusion. You’ll love it!” —Sandi Ault, the Mary Higgins Clark Award–winning author of the Wild mystery series “Imaginative and compelling! A tantalizing plot and memorable characters combine to make this a spellbinding debut.” —Margaret Tessler, author of the Sharon Salazar mystery series

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the author of Into the Wild and Into Thin Air, this extraordinary work of investigative journalism takes readers inside America’s isolated Mormon Fundamentalist communities. • Now an acclaimed FX limited series streaming on HULU. “Fantastic.... Right up there with In Cold Blood and The Executioner’s Song.” —San Francisco Chronicle Defying both civil authorities and the Mormon establishment in Salt Lake City, the renegade leaders of these Taliban-like theocracies are zealots who answer only to God; some 40,000 people still practice polygamy in these communities. At the core of Krakauer’s book are brothers Ron and Dan Lafferty, who insist they received a commandment from God to kill a blameless woman and her baby girl. Beginning with a meticulously researched account of this appalling double murder, Krakauer constructs a multi-layered, bone-chilling narrative of messianic delusion, polygamy, savage violence, and unyielding faith. Along the way he uncovers a shadowy offshoot of America’s fastest growing religion, and raises provocative questions about the nature of religious belief.

Book Description
The cult-y pocket-size field guide to the strange and intriguing secrets of the Mojave—its myths and legends, outcasts and oddballs, flora, fauna, and UFOs—becomes the definitive, oracular book of the desert For the past five years, Desert Oracle has existed as a quasi-mythical, quarterly periodical available to the very determined only by subscription or at the odd desert-town gas station or the occasional hipster boutique, its canary-yellow-covered, forty-four-page issues handed from one curious desert zealot to the next, word spreading faster than the printers could keep up with. It became a radio show, a podcast, a live performance. Now, for the first time—and including both classic and new, never-before-seen revelations—Desert Oracle has been bound between two hard covers and is available to you. Straight out of Joshua Tree, California, Desert Oracle is “The Voice of the Desert”: a field guide to the strange tales, singing sand dunes, sagebrush trails, artists and aliens, authors and oddballs, ghost towns and modern legends, musicians and mystics, scorpions and saguaros, out there in the sand. Desert Oracle is your companion at a roadside diner, around a campfire, in your tent or cabin (or high-rise apartment or suburban living room) as the wind and the coyotes howl outside at night. From journal entries of long-deceased adventurers to stray railroad ad copy, and musings on everything from desert flora, rumored cryptid sightings, and other paranormal phenomena, Ken Layne's Desert Oracle collects the weird and the wonderful of the American Southwest into a single, essential volume.
