The Jellie Chronicles Volume Two: PIRATES relates the continuing story of the brave crew of the salvage ship the Pequad, who have taken on the task of towing a yacht from Hawaii to Tahiti through pirate-infested waters. But something even more terrifying lurks in the ocean’s depths. The crew of the Pequad follows their captain to the bottom of the planet, where they encounter their greatest foe yet, a long-thought-extinct beast from the past. Straight from his nightmares, Captain Ron “Fearless” Wilson battles the elements in the Southern Pacific, where he meets the apex predator. The first book in the series is The Jellie Chronicles: STINGS. Says author Bryan Misuraca, “I really like the characters from the first book. I still have some adventures left to put them through.” The third book will be Jellie Chronicles FEARLESS.

Volume three of the Pequad’s odyssey takes the ship’s crew and its captain, “Fearless” Ron Wilson, through the South Pacific. No one is safe, as the Pequad battles through the South Sea Islands, dodging assassins and fighting mercenaries, a mission complicated by the battle going on in Ron’s mind. When he temporarily loses control of himself, the captain must discover what’s wrong, because not knowing is driving him crazy. Is he possessed by a demon, or does he have brain damage? He decides he needs help, from a specialist. “I actually thought the kid could help. What a dope, at least I can chalk this one up as another Captain Crazy episode,” Ron told Tracy. “What a waste, having your own witch doctor might of gave you some standing on these islands,” Tracy commented. “Even one that just wants to sit on his couch and play video games?” Ron asked. “Jane was right, they sure don’t make witch doctors like they used to,” he heard from the captain. “If they did, he probably wouldn’t of been so easy to snatch off that island,” Ron added. Demon or not, there are battles to be fought and monsters to be hunted. A small island in the Pacific is being terrorized by an unknown creature off its shores. When divers start disappearing, a call is sent out to the Son of the Monster Hunter. A call that turns their island into a battleground when a shady businessman sends his henchmen to take out the captain. When the crooked billionaire targets Ron’s pod, Ron counterattacks where it hurts most, in the pocketbook. This escalates the feud and ends in a no-holds barred battle for Jellie Island.

A set of intriguing British whodunits featuring Detective Inspector Sloan—from a CWA Diamond Dagger winner and “most ingenious” author (The New Yorker). Over the course of twenty-four crime novels set in the fictional County of Calleshire, England, and featuring the sleuthing team of shrewd Detective Inspector C. D. Sloan and his less-than-shrewd sidekick, Detective Constable William Crosby, award-winning author Catherine Aird maintained the perfect balance between cozy village mystery and police procedural. These three entertaining crime novels offer “the very best in British mystery” (The New Yorker). A Late Phoenix: In the quaint Victorian town of Berebury, England, a skeleton has been found in the crater of a World War II bomb site. But this corpse is no buried casualty of the Blitz. The cause of death, Detective Inspector Sloan discovers, is a bullet to the spine. His Burial Too: Detective Inspector Sloan puzzles over an industrialist crushed under the rubble of an old Saxon church tower. With no eyewitnesses and little evidence, the policeman doesn’t seem to have a prayer of solving the case. And then a second body turns up. Slight Mourning: Twelve friends sit down for supper at Strontfield Park—but only eleven survive the evening. After dinner, the host offers to drive one of his guests home, only to die in a violent accident. His autopsy shows that he ingested enough barbiturates to kill a horse, and now the guest list is Sloan’s roster of suspects.

As the oceans warm, a new species of medusa (jelly fish) invades the northern Pacific ocean. When the jellies begin hunting humans, Captain Percival Ronald Wilson and his crew are hired to hunt them. The story begins with the disappearance of boaters off the northern coast of America. The jellies, being a new predator, eat local fish. When that supply runs low, they turn to hunting human prey. Twenty-seven feet long and seven feet in diameter, adult jellies possess six strong arms and thirty-two poison-injecting tentacles. A ring of eyes surrounds the body and the stomach is filled with an acid that dissolves its prey, dead or alive. These new predators seek to continue their new species by mating, laying eggs and sperm that will turn into polyps or plant-like creatures. These future jellies live on the ocean floor until something triggers their transformation into thousands or millions of new predators. When a coast guard ship is lost, a salvage ship is hired to recover the sunken vessel. Enter Captain Wilson and his ship, The Pequad, a sea-going salvage tug named in honor of the ship The Pequot from Moby Dick. He and his crew hunt the jellies to the Bering Sea, then across the Pacific to Japan, as the jellies invade just as a massive hurricane bears down on them.

FBI Odyssey is the second riveting read in Mike Conti¿s ¿Jelly Bryce¿ trilogy. In part two we follow Detective Delf Bryce as he leaves the Oklahoma City Police Department to become a member of J. Edgar Hoover¿s Federal Bureau of Investigation. America at that time was in a restless, uneasy state. The devastating Great Depression had not yet ended and the world stood on the brink of total war. In addition to the threat posed by the Axis powers in Europe and Asia was the specter of the ¿Red Menace¿¿the Communist movement¿at home. Many Americans, including Hoover, the head of the country¿s fast-growing secret intelligence service, believed the Communists presented a ¿clear and present danger¿ to the United States and its way of life. Initially recruited into the FBI by none other than Hoover himself to battle the well-known gangsters of the era, Jelly soon found himself embroiled in missions with international implications. To do his job and keep himself alive, he would need to rely on both his legendary gunfighting skills as well as what author John Steinbeck referred to as ¿the final weapon¿¿his quick, analytical brain.
