New Release: MURDER AT HOTEL GLORIOSA by Victoria Zackheim - An Aria Nevins and Noah Roche Mystery

In the second of the Aria Nevins/Noah Roche mystery series, readers are transported to the high desert of New Mexico, near the Navajo Nation, and a remote hotel hosting an international conference for homicide investigators and forensic experts. Aria arrives to spend the weekend with Noah, who’s scheduled to teach a few courses, sit on a few panels. When they enter their suite and find the universally disliked Chicago detective Creighton Thornberry on their bed, naked and with a bullet hole in his forehead, the local police immediately zero in on Noah, who had argued with Thornberry the night before. Police Chief Dot Clearwater and her sidekick, Marty Palacios arrest Noah. Aria is frantic to find the real killer. Her hopes are buoyed when she discovers an old friend living in Santa Fe is married to an attorney, and buoyed even more with the unexpected arrival of Noah’s Paris team, Anuj Kumar and Tenna Berglof, and the appearance of Susan Wellber, an esteemed forensics expert who also happens to be Noah’s old flame. Together, the team sets out to find someone who hates Noah enough to frame him for murder. There’s a second arrest, but what possible link could there be between this new suspect, the dead cop from Chicago, and Noah, our homicide detective from Paris? Before the pieces of this puzzle are in place, another violent crime takes place, forcing the team to shift into high gear to uncover the identity of the killer before he kills again.

New Release: TO HAVE AND TO HOLD by Liz Milliron -A Laurel Highlands Mystery

The wedding countdown is ticking down, but defense attorney Sally Castle is focused on work—not dresses—much to the dismay of her mother. Castle & Parson’s latest client is afraid of illegal activities at the pharmacy where she works, although she admits her fears may be paranoia. As Sally digs into the facts, it seems certain the young woman is being set up to take the fall for the real culprit.

State Police Trooper Jim Duncan is used to responding to murders after the fact. When a man reports overhearing a threatening phone call from an unknown number, Duncan is intrigued, but without a dead body there’s nothing to be done. That is until two days later when he responds to a suspected suicide that has all the earmarks of a staged scene.

When drugs found at the dead man’s house are connected to the pharmacy in Sally’s case, the questions become even more complicated. Now the two must unravel the tangled web to find a murderer and keep a young woman from being convicted of a crime she didn’t commit. All before the killer interrupts their trip to the altar—permanently.

New Release: A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY FOR MURDER by Rebecca Saltzer

A gold mine.
An ex she never forgot.
And financials that point to murder.

When Wall Street fund manager Anne Scott makes a due diligence trip to a gold mine in the Rocky Mountains, she expects a relaxing break from the office. Instead, she finds her ex-boyfriend—now the mine’s lead geologist—and the unresolved chemistry she thought she’d left behind.

Determined to remain focused on the investment, she buries herself in the company’s spreadsheets. But the deeper she digs, the more the numbers don't add up.

And then a small plane crashes under suspicious circumstances.

In the thin mountain air where trust is scarce and deception runs deep, Anne must uncover the truth before her fund’s millions vanish and a killer gets away with the perfect murder. by @levelbestbooks
