Rigors of Murder
When five women get together to carry out the perfect murder, things go terribly astray.

The last thing Liesl Alan needs in her life is a man. She tried them before and wasn’t impressed. What she needs is a metabolism that works overtime, a rewarding career, a dependable car, a place of her own, and an alibi.
Murder Points North
On the brink of turning 40, geology professor Liesl Alan is depressed, overweight, hardly in the Christmas spirit and cursed. Street lights go out as she drives by, stray cats stalk her, fortune cookies mock her, and Cupid—well let’s just say they haven’t been on speaking turns in years, and then there’s the murder thing.

Darcey and Rand McClain find that buying a new home can come with hidden surprises. Not just of the home repair variety. Sometimes, critters can find their way in. And when it turns out that the creatures are from a species not yet identified, maybe it is time to put the for sale signs back up.
