Ashleigh Carmichael has it all: money, fame, expensive cars, a multi-million-pound London house and the adoration of millions of social media followers. Curtis Redding does not have it all: homeless, penniless, down on his luck and he doesn’t even own a phone. Plus, he’s wanted to kill Bryan Matthews since he was a child. Ashleigh (through no fault of her own) winds up getting dragged into the power-play between Curtis and Bryan, who clearly have ongoing issues with each other.

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.

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.

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.

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.
