In Episode 6, Hoo Hung Wu, you have received an invitation to join the Family Hoo at their summer home on Hoo-Hung-Wu Islands to celebrate the Festival of the Autumn Moon. Suspense and intrigue abound as the 8 guests try to learn who murdered Hoo. Come in costume and assume the role of one of the suspects; Hoo Li-Gan (head of the prominent large Hoo family -- 3 wives, 6 concubines and at least 11 children), General Shang Hai-Shek (fearsome warrior, noted swordsman and close friend of Hoo Li-Gan), Hao Dee-Doo (a man of impeccable moral character, favored by the emperor), Pen Ta-Gon (nationally reputed scholar and author of the philosophical treatise The Way To Con Fu-shun), Wee Ping (beautiful well-provided for young widow of Wu Wun), Wu Pi (well educated, beautiful eldest daughter of Wu family), Hoo Ting (young second wife of Hoo Li-Gan, competent and efficient manager of the Hoo households), or Ding Ling (niece of the famous General of the Empire, beautiful young poetess). Imagine your home is an eighth-century Chinese mansion, as you and your guests enjoy hours of suspense and intrigue -- but mainly humor -- as you solve the crime over hot tea, spring rolls, wonton soup, Hoo House marinated pork roast...with plum wine and Chinese beer.

A page-turning narrative, Heaven's Ditch offers an excitingly fresh look at a heady, foundational moment in American history. The technological marvel of its age, the Erie Canal grew out of a sudden fit of inspiration. Proponents didn't just dream; they built a 360-mile waterway entirely by hand and largely through wilderness. As excitement crackled down its length, the canal became the scene of the most striking outburst of imagination in American history. Zealots invented new religions and new modes of living. The Erie Canal made New York the financial capital of America and brought the modern world crashing into the frontier. Men and women saw God face to face, gained and lost fortunes, and reveled in a period of intense spiritual creativity. Heaven's Ditch by Jack Kelly illuminates the spiritual and political upheavals along this "psychic highway" from its opening in 1825 through 1844. "Wage slave" Sam Patch became America's first celebrity daredevil. William Miller envisioned the apocalypse. Farm boy Joseph Smith gave birth to Mormonism, a new and distinctly American religion. Along the way, the reader encounters America's very first "crime of the century," a treasure hunt, searing acts of violence, a visionary cross-dresser, and a panoply of fanatics, mystics, and hoaxers.

A beautiful victim. An elusive criminal. A part time policeman. Three pieces of the mystery that is Jim Doherty's AN OBSCURE GRAVE. Dan Sullivan, UC Berkeley undergrad and part-time cop, is working the tip-line for a missing-persons case that is getting national attention. DeeDee Merryweather, beautiful Cal co-ed, has disappeared. The prevailing theory is that she's been abducted. But one of the tipsters, an anonymous caller claiming psychic powers, believes it's a murder, because, she says, she's sensed DeeDee's corpse buried in a makeshift tomb. If she's right, the Berkeley Police and the FBI are on the wrong track. But will a part-time reservist be able to put them on the right one that leads to DeeDee's obscure grave? And, from there, to her killer? Jim Doherty, author of JUST THE FACTS: TRUE TALES OF COPS AND CRIMINALS, crafts a challenging mystery within this spot on police procedural. AN OBSCURE GRAVE, his first novel, was a finalist for a CWA Debut Dagger Award, competing with hundreds of entries from all over the world.

My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?
