Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My guiltiest pleasure is Harry Stephen Keeler. He may been the greatest bad writer America has ever produced. Or perhaps the worst great writer. I do not know. There are few faults you can accuse him of that he is not guilty of. But I love him." -- Neil Gaiman Ho hum. Another day; another corpse dredged up from the depths of Lake Michigan. This time it’s a body having the bottom half of a negro man and the top half of a Chinese woman joined together at the waist by some kind of greenish glue. But we don’t linger long at this unpleasant scene because Angus MacWhorter and his Mammoth Motorized Show are in another pickle. If Angus can’t pay back $3000 -- in $100 bills whose serial numbers must be evenly divisible by 13! -- he’ll lose the circus to the dastardly Geispitz Gmohling. But the needed bills are on the other side of Old Twistibus, the windingest road in the world, and Giff O’Dell, who has the bills, is obsessed with solving the Crazy Corpse murder. Now that is a pickle!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Her husband was stealing her money, while accusing her of a plot to poison him -- or so claims the frightened young Mrs. Myrna Davenport. She wants Perry Mason to find the incriminating note her husband left for the authorities accusing her of murder -- especially now that Davenport is dying. Perry finds the envelope, but it's filled with blank paper. Then Davenport does die, or so everyone thinks until his alleged corpse climbs out a window and drives away -- straight into a prepared open grave in another county. With Davenport finally dead, Perry could become a possible accessory to murder. And though the victim died twice, Perry gets only one clear shot at saving his client -- and himself.

Longworth’s Aix-en-Provence mysteries." —Booklist on Murder on Brittany Shores The Missing Corpse is internationally bestselling author, Jean-Luc Bannalec’s fourth novel in the Commissaire Dupin series. It’s picturesque, suspenseful, and the next best thing to a trip to Brittany. Along the picturesque Belon River, home of the world famous oyster beds, between steep cliffs, ominous forests and the Atlantic Ocean, a stubborn elderly film actress discovers a corpse. By the time Commissaire Dupin arrives at the scene, the body has disappeared. A little while later, he receives a phone call from the mystical hills of Monts d'Arree, where legends of fairies and the devil abound: another unidentified body has turned up. Dupin quickly realizes this may be his most difficult and confounding case yet, with links to celtic myths, a sand theft operation, and mysterious ancient druid cults.

Download or read book The Crimson Query TPB written by Arlton Eadie and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-12-11 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade paperback. Arlton Eadie wrote this mystery novel in 1929, just before he began writing his horror stories for Weird Tales and other pulps. The subtitle (How the Squid Got Besuckered) hints at a playful story, but don't be shocked to find a few elements of weirdness in the tale. When Detective-Inspector Lee Norton gets a coded message to report to the local police station, then gets an anonymous note warning him off, he finds himself imbedded in diabolic intrigue that even he can't tell is supernatural or not. This is a wonderful introduction to the world of Arlton Eadie before it really gets too strange. Arlton Eadie was the byline used by Leopold Leonard Eadie. His eerie thriller The Trail of the Cloven Hoof is also available under Ramble House's Dancing Tuatara Press imprint edited by John Pelan.
