When evolutionary biologists Roberta and Victor Morland relocate to a cozy hamlet in rural America, it's not long before the neighbors begin knocking on their door with invitations to join into community life. What starts out as a seemingly benign interest in their affairs gradually turns sinister. As the somewhat too friendly pillars of the community press for conformity, Roberta and Victor's initial annoyance turns into genuine fear. With nothing to guide them except their own intuitions and some help from their quirky but lethally intelligent family members, they attempt to expose a dark...

Whoops! All I wanted to do was have one hot night with a stranger... And now everything is going wrong! Okay, so I kind-of-sort-of accidentally ended up in bed with my brother’s best friend. How did I manage this? Well, I was traveling out of town when I met a tall, smokin’ guy with a devilish grin. That’s when I decided I was going to do something I had never done before— Have earth-shattering, mind-blowing sex with someone who's totally out of my league! I mean, how often does a regular girl like me get this kind of shot anyway? And it was so worth it, because, for the first time ...

Jonny Hollywood is living the dream. As the king of late-night television, his charm and charisma light up screens across America, masking a past of razor-sharp comedy now dulled by fame's golden sheen. From adoring fans to endless luxury, Jonny has it all—or so he thinks.

Just hours after setting foot on a new planet, Cal and the crew find themselves caught up in an interplanetary kidnapping plot. Reuniting the suspiciously silent young victim with her parents on their far-off home world will make Cal rich beyond his wildest dreams. Unfortunately, half the pirates and bounty hunters in the galaxy have the same idea, and they're more than happy to take the girl by force.

A biting satire about a young man's isolated upbringing and the race trial that sends him to the Supreme Court, Paul Beatty's The Sellout showcases a comic genius at the top of his game. It challenges the sacred tenets of the United States Constitution, urban life, the civil rights movement, the father-son relationship, and the holy grail of racial equality—the black Chinese restaurant.

He got the girl, saved the day, and settled in for a comfortable career at Devil Co. That means it’s the perfect time for God to have other plans for him–and guess who shows up to try and poach Nick for Their organization? Why have one complicated job working for a personified deity, when you can have two?

How to Dodge a Cannonball is funnier than the Civil War should ever be. It follows Anders, a teenage idealist who enlists and reenlists to shape the American Future—as soon as he figures out what that is, who it includes, and why everyone wants him to die for it. Escaping his violently insane mother is a bonus. Anders finds honor as a proud Union flag twirler—until he’s captured. Then he tries life as a diehard Confederate—until fate asks him to die hard for the Confederacy at Gettysburg. Barely alive, Anders limps into a Black Union regiment in a stolen uniform.

With everyone at the resort hiding secrets of their own, she’ll have to solve this real-life mystery before she becomes the next target.

Heaven's Queens is a satirical fantasy, derived from the Bible, archaeological findings from the Ancient Near East, Roman Catholic doctrine, and American Evangelical Protestant Christian teaching. In antiquity, the Israelites worshiped Asherah, as the Queen of Heaven and YHWH’s wife, together with YHWH. Judah’s King Josiah put a violent end to the worship of Asherah, and to the worship of (and belief in) any divinity besides YHWH. This caused YHWH to experience considerable loneliness. One day, following Satan’s advice, YHWH decided to find a virgin with whom to copulate.

Maverick political journalist Paul Ryder has become the press secretary of the Minister for the Arts. It is a lowly job in a lowly portfolio. That is fine with him.

He could look the other way, but that is not his style. Another fast-paced comic romp through Canberra politics.

Here we bring you pleasant narratives described with stories sandwiched in between and about visits to places of interest, whether tourist or educational. They include pictures of the environment within the narrative next to sympathetic and likable occurrences. In between 'cabbage and cabbage' the author added stories where he writes something that has happened to him and his canine friends, or anyone else, including the recent misfortune when the Monkey Buttocks-Eater is involved, who gives the Roman explorers a fatal and bad taste for adventure; however, the whole story teaches us the ...

Problem. I didn’t recognize my ex-girlfriend when she died in my arms. Now I have to explain to the police (and my girlfriend) why I didn’t recognize my ex. Funny how ex-boyfriends make great suspects. It’s been years since I’ve seen my ex. Still, you’d think I’d recognize her. I can’t even have a long weekend in a Washington vineyard without trouble. Even worse, my sister invited my new girlfriend’s family to tag along. If I solve the murder, will this whole mess go away? There’s a reason why I like to stay in Seattle. Holt Jacobs isn’t for everyone. He’s a sarcastic ...

If there’s one thing more dangerous than fireworks, it’s dating. Note to self: Lying facedown on the floor while my vacation home gets ransacked isn’t romantic. That break-in wrecked our simple lunch. Definitely not the date I had in mind. My only reason for spending the Fourth of July in Idaho was to try dating Brittany Asato. And now I can’t relax while expecting trouble behind every tree. I have to know who did this. But how do you juggle dating with crime-solving? There’s a reason I’ve stayed single. Holt Jacobs isn’t for everyone. He’s a sarcastic introvert who can ...

In the genteel depths of Southern society—where gossip is currency, calamity wears lace gloves, and bourbon flows before brunch—Colonel Cedric Beauregard Fitzhugh the Third stumbles through a trilogy of misadventures. From scandalous garden brunches and matchmaking misfires to a murder-mystery club’s deadly encounter (and one goat with political aspirations), chaos simmers beneath the genteel surface. Standing as the last bastion of order is Arora Palindrome, his razor-sharp majordomo armed with cold ceviche, a clipboard, and a plan for every catastrophe. With biting wit, bourbon-...

Buffalo is melting. The sidewalks squirm. The cats have formed a militia. Max Noir—sarcastic detective, caffeine addict, and reluctant hero—just wanted his coffee. Instead, he finds himself ankle-deep in sentient goo, guilt-fueled hallucinations, and a grotesque game masterminded by a sourdough-born intelligence. As Buffalo oozes into madness, Max is forced to investigate a mystery that smells like burnt soup, features a psychic yeast tantrum, and may be targeting him personally. From a cheese-curd confession to a feline urine offensive, Max Noir is a genre-bending, noir-splattered ...

Crossing swords on the cyber-battlefield of online auctions, curmudgeons Alexia and Ross each win rare collectibles the other needs to escape financial doom. Each recruits a young neighbor (Kylie and Robin) to coax the key collectible from the other. Their schemes go awry and the resulting complications push all four to the brink of financial and romantic ruin. Set in San Francisco, this is a deliciously distracting escapist romantic romp in the comic tradition of Wodehouse.

Someone wants me dead. It’s a little rude. Mandatory work trips are bad enough. Someone trying to kill me is even worse. Good news, an ancient stage light didn’t crash on top of me. Bad news, someone else died. If flying into Phoenix wasn’t bad enough, now I’m stuck in a hotel with my co-workers, and one of them wants me dead. This should be an easy case to solve. How many people could hate me? Holt Jacobs isn’t for everyone. He’s a sarcastic introvert who can never get quite enough coffee. Becoming a sarcastic sleuth was unexpected, but as an engineer, Holt is used to solving ...
