The martial arts world is rife with tales of ancient masters who could cause instant or delayed death or illness by attacking secret points on the human body. But to the Western mind, the concept of striking acupuncture points to disrupt the internal energy, or chi, seems like hocus-pocus. Thus, many serious martial artists dismiss the ancient art of dim-mak (also known as kyusho jitsu), which is literally translated as "death touch," as nothing more than fiction. However, if one can accept the idea that a dim-mak point is an avenue for attacking the nervous system, then it becomes easier to understand how striking specific points or groups of points can devastate the organs and the cardiovascular system. In this book, Dr. Michael Kelly, an osteopathic physician and experienced dim-mak practitioner, explains dim-mak's effects based on medical science. In layman's terms, Dr. Kelly reveals the physiological basis for what is clearly a very real and dangerous method of fighting. In the process of unraveling the mystery of this legendary art, Dr. Kelly makes the true genius of its founders brutally, and painfully, apparent.

When American golfer Barry Vinson turns up dead at the British Open, golf writer John Morris and his companion, Julia Sullivan, search for clues, but when an antique golf ball is stuffed down a second murder victim's throat, they uncover a bizarre mystery as old as the game itself. Vinson could pulverize his tee shots and dazzle with his short game. But when it came to personality, the brilliant young American was strictly a duffer -- until someone took him off the course. With an antique golf ball -- a 'feathery' -- stuffed down his throat. For sportswriter John Morris and the high-spirited Julia Sullivan, it is nearly a matter of even par ... until that second savage murder is committed. Now, through all the pomp and cutthroat competition of the British Open, Morris and Sullivan desperately try to solve the bizarre mystery, taking them back through the history of Scotland itself, where golf and bloody murder are all just part of the game. Published previously in paperback by Dell, this Morris & Sullivan Mystery is at last digitally available from QP Books -- an authorized and unabridged republication, and part of the complete, acclaimed series by master mystery writer John Logue.

Death is permanent. Even if it hasn’t happened yet. With just a touch, George experiences a person's future death. High school is hard enough, but sixteen-year-old death witch Georgiana “George” Colburn can’t seem to catch a break. Even Jen’s ghost, the recently deceased popular girl who ignored George in life, won’t leave her alone. George is convinced her life can’t get any worse. That is until she bumps into the new student and experiences his death at her hand. When a coven mate, Trixie, offers to help her with her magic, George finds herself with a new friend and crush, but she knows even if she found the courage to ask her out, a relationship is impossible: she’d never be able to touch her. With the help of her friends, George must face her fears and learn to embrace her powers to unlock the secrets of her magic before blood stains her hands. For readers who enjoy These Witches Don’t Burn by Isabel Sterling, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, and Legendborn by Tracy Deonn.

I never imagined I'd end up making a deal with the King of the Dead to save my own neck, but this is what my life has come to. The good news is that I wasn't arrested by the Order of the Elements for using spirit magic. The bad news is that I still don't remember my lessons. And if people keep trying to kill me, I'm going to need those skills. When the Death King hires me to investigate a spate of mysterious killings, I'm inclined to say no. The Order has me running around chasing enough magical criminals as it is, and Brant, the fire mage I'm dating, is less than thrilled at the idea of playing nice with the Death King. But when the killings are revealed to be linked to the spirit mages, I have no choice but to get involved if I want to keep my newly reawakened talents hidden from the world at large. As if hunting a killer wasn't enough, the vampires are up to no good, my sidekick has run away, and at this rate, I'll end up missing gaming night. Again.
