Download or read book The Definition of Crime written by Kari Kilgore and published by Spiral Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2021-03-18 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Appalachian Crime Story Private Investigator Helen Hartsock returns home to the Appalachian Mountains. Searching for a missing person hardly anyone misses. She finds Martha Phelps: a woman with a mysterious past and fiercely loyal friends. And a deep knowledge of the secrets the mountains hold. Will Helen get answers, or regret asking in the first place? Originally appeared in Mystery, Crime, and Mayhem: Private Eyes, Knotted Road Press, 2020. An excerpt from The Definition of Crime: A Mystery Almost No One Cares to Solve Helen was determined to follow the path to wherever Rodney Blevins ended his days, no matter how it twisted or turned. Almost as determined as his family, even if no one else seemed to care. She pretended to read and watched Martha load everything into one washer while everyone else was still busy sorting into two, sometimes three machines. All typical behavior for this crew. But instead of standing around and chatting with her friends, Martha stared right at Helen. Not good. Then she walked over and sat beside her, which was worse. “Figured I should introduce myself,” Martha said, her voice quiet but a bit rough, as if she’d shouted a lot in her life. “Since we seem to have noticed each other for several days in a row now.”

Also available in the collection Stepping Out of Reality An excerpt from Amy in Wonderland: Right On Time for A Most Important Date Amy stepped through the door the White Rabbit held, and she found herself bobbing down into a passable imitation of a curtsey for some bizarre reason. Up close, she couldn’t see a trace of makeup on his white face, or how his constantly twitching whiskers could possibly be attached. “Do be sure and enjoy your refreshments,” he purred. “We made them especially for you.” Even though Amy’s stomach loudly demanded popcorn now that the scent was thick in the air, she headed toward the burgundy velvet curtain leading to the auditorium. She had no desire to get too close to any of the other actors. Unfortunately Tweedledum and Tweedledee had relocated themselves to either side of the entrance, and they each held a silvery tray.

A group of seventeen-year-old girls, on the brink of their new lives as women. Only one resists, longing for another choice. A path to her own future. Can she break free from all who passed before her? An excerpt from In the Company of Women: Facing Down Fate After years of dreaming of this night, since she was old enough to understand the words spoken in the service the week before, it was all Cathy could do to stop herself from running out the door. The women would be waiting, of course. But maybe she could dart through. Brian had a car, a blue late Seventies Chevette in really good shape. They could go right now and never look back. Except Brian wouldn't. And even more so, Cathy wouldn't. She could only hope, and maybe even pray, that she would not be the one after all. That she'd walk out of here the same as she walked in. That she'd get the time she still needed to figure out all the rest. "Come on, Cathy," Rhonda said, her voice soft and shaky. "Time's up."

Also available in the collection Investigations Beyond Belief An excerpt from Finding the Tracks to the Past: When New Changes Stir Up Old Trouble "Did Gina tell you what's happening at the depot?" Deb said. Terri took another big swallow of her beer and scooted around on the couch until she sat cross-legged and facing forward. "Not until this afternoon. But she's been calling in reports of trespassing that don't make sense all week long. Things knocked off shelves or knocked over. Footprints all through the dust, inside and out. Tools moved around, doors either locked or unlocked, day and night. Same with windows. Got a few complaints of noise from people who live nearby, too, when no one was there working. Dead in the middle of the night." "Charming choice of words," Deb said. "Your deputies checked it out?" "Of course they did. Couldn't find a trace of anyone sneaking around, not outside of what Gina reported. I hate this for her, but apparently nothing happens when one of the patrol cars hangs around. That kind of thing can drive you crazy."

Book excerpt: Heavy Flavors covers the proceedings of the Third Topical Seminar on Heavy Flavors, held in San Miniato, Italy on June 17-21, 1991. The book focuses on the reactions, properties, characteristics, and transformations of heavy flavors. The publication first offers information on flavor factories and monochromatization as the way to maximum luminosity B-factories, as well as design strategies and parameters, requirements, luminosity limitations, and B-factory with monochromatization and vertical separation. The book then ponders on theoretical results in heavy quark hadroproduction; heavy flavor production at high energies; and leptonic decay constants of heavy mesons. The book examines heavy baryon transitions and the heavy quark effective theory; non universality of nucleon sea distributions probed by neutrinos and muons; and heavy flavor physics at hadron colliders. The publication is a dependable reference for readers interested in the study of heavy flavors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Strange Case in a Strange Place A chance to recapture past glory days gone awry.

Will Dana manage to crack the case before it goes from missing person to murder? A Dana Sanderson Short Mystery An excerpt from Glory Lane and the Humid Holiday Dana had always been more comfortable with codes and computers than people. "We got a missing persons report on Rich Walters a couple of days ago," Michelle said. "Only had a plane ticket to go on. We've had the word out, but he disappeared after he flew into Miami. Not a trace until right here, last night." Michelle held up one of those evidence bags with a scuffed brown leather wallet inside, with a loose driver's license pressed against the plastic. Dana glanced the alley where a few uniforms still lingered, heads down. "He's not... Is he over there?" Michelle looked over her shoulder, then turned back to Dana with a grin. "Don't worry, Dana. He's not dead, not that we know of. But Rich Walters isn't just missing. He's disappeared into thin air."
