Murder, she wrote: Fit for murder (Murder, She Wrote #57)
Par Jessica Fletcher. 2024
Former editor of the Cabot Cove Gazette Evelyn Phillips is back in Cabot Cove. Evelyn tells Jessica and Seth that…
she got a couple of really weird notes from Bertha Mae Cormier, so she's come back to town to check on her old friend. She demands that Jessica come with her to see Bertha Mae, who is a bit dithery, but no more so than Jessica remembers her being in recent years. Jessica does become somewhat concerned when Bertha Mae starts to talk about her new neighbor, Martin Terranova. Quite charming and very health conscious, Terranova teaches yoga and meditation in his pool house. Maureen Metzger says that she and Bertha Mae became friends in Terranova's class and mentions how solicitous he is to his older clients. Jessica attends one of his classes and does notice that Terranova is flirtatious with several elderly clients, especially Bertha Mae. Evelyn becomes convinced that Bertha Mae is being mesmerized by Terranova and that he is after Bertha Mae's money. A short while later, Martin turns up dead in his weight room. What at first blush seems to be an accident soon proves to be murder, and Jessica must put her investigative skills to the test when Evelyn becomes the prime suspectBonne nuit les cocos!

Par Colin Higgins. 2023
Nineteen-year-old Harold Chasen is obsessed with death. He fakes suicides to shock his self-obsessed mother, drives a hearse, and attends…
funerals of complete strangers. Seventy-nine-year-old Maude Chardin, on the other hand, adores life. She liberates trees from city sidewalks and transplants them to the forest, paints smiles on the faces of church statues, and "borrows" cars to remind their owners that life is fleeting—here today, gone tomorrow! A chance meeting between the two turns into a madcap, whirlwind romance, and Harold learns that life is worth living, and how to play the banjo. Harold and Maude started as Colin Higgins's master's thesis at UCLA film school before being made into the 1971 film directed by Hal Ashby. The quirky, dark comedy gained a loyal cult following, and in 1997 it was selected for inclusion on the National Film Registry at the Library of Congress. Fans who have seen the movie dozens of times will find this a valuable companion, as it gives fresh elements to watch for and answers many of the film's unresolved questionsThe Perfect Sushi

Sprinkled with engaging onomatopoeia, this unique title is infused with Japanese culture and delivers a universal message about the value of intention.

Par Logan Macnair. 2023
"Logan Macnair's Troll showcases a bravura writing performance." ~ Vancouver SunWhen aspiring actor Peter Riley is given the assignment in…
his drama class to perform in a YouTube-style video, he creates the character of 'Petrol Riley,' a satire of a politically extreme right-wing conspiracy theorist. Peter is soon surprised to learn that the video he has uploaded has gone unexpectedly viral, with thousands of viewers misinterpreting his satirical performance as genuine. Seeing this as his path toward fame, Peter commits to portraying the hatemongering character of Petrol full-time, building a devout and rabid fanbase of online supporters that only grow more loyal and extreme the more hateful Petrol's rhetoric becomes. As his reach grows, Peter must reconcile with his notoriety and decide whether this newfound fame is worth the influence he is having on his legions of impressionable online admirers. Striking and timely, Troll offers a meditation and authentic critique on the unique conditions and occasional ugliness of modern online communication.Pour Laïka: La chienne qui a rencontré les étoiles

When Nelson Penzell, co-owner of a local art and treasure store in Cabot Cove, is murdered, the nail tech from…
Jessica Fletcher's favorite beauty parlor is the main suspect. After all, she's the one who ran out of the store screaming, covered in blood, and holding the murder weapon. Jessica is positive that despite the circumstances, Coreen can't possibly be guilty, and she's determined to prove it. When Michael Haggerty, handsome MI-6 agent and Jessica's old friend, is caught snooping around the victim's home, it's quickly apparent to her that she was right. Nelson has always had a bit of a reputation for being a rake, but Haggerty is sure his sins go far beyond what anyone in town imagined. If she wants to clear Coreen's name, Jessica will have to work alongside Michael to find out who killed Nelson—and maybe help bust a crime ring in the processJessica Fletcher has had plenty to worry about over her storied career, but she never had any reason to worry…
about her longtime publisher, Lane Barfield. So when mounting evidence of financial malfeasance leads to an FBI investigation of Lane, Jessica can't believe what she's reading. When Lane turns up dead, Jessica takes on the task of proving her innocence—she can't fathom someone she's known and trusted for so long cheating her. Sure enough, Jessica's lone-wolf investigation turns up several oddities and inconsistencies in the murder. Jessica knows something is being covered up, but what exactly? At the heart of Jessica's investigation lies a manuscript that Lane had intended to publish after all other publishers had turned it down. The problem is that the manuscript has disappeared. With her own life now in jeopardy, Jessica refuses to back off and sets her sights on learning the contents of that manuscript and what about it may have led to several murdersBrave Like the Buffalo
