Why is it that I am constantly trying to purge clutter out of my house, and spending equal time on Facebook Marketplace. I need to make up my mind. Am I purging or collecting? The problem is I spend too much time at home. I used to go places, but now we can’t, so I have way too much time to think about that one corner in the house that has too much stuff, but needs something. ERG!!! Soon though the baby bassets will be going back to school and things are opening back up. Will I be able to integrate back into society or will I fight it and just hide at home rearranging my garden gnomes? There are four of them and they don’t seem all that happy about where I put them. I swear I heard the crab statue complain that he doesn’t belong in a garden. I don’t have the heart to tell him he isn’t a real crab. Hubby doesn’t have the heart to tell me the crab doesn’t talk. It’s definitely time for me to go back out where the people are.
Campus Confidential: An Academic Thriller (Doctor Rowena Halley Book 1)
by Sid Stark
Genre: Mystery | Suspense
FREE for a limited time
Love Kinsey Millhone’s grit, Stephanie Plum’s humor, or Spenser’s wry take on academia? Check out the Doctor Rowena Halley series!
“Brilliantly-written and highly entertaining, a must read… ” The Prairies Book Review
Doctor Rowena Halley needs a job. But it may cost her more than she’s bargained for.
During one of the worst years on record in the academic job market, newly-minted PhD Rowena Halley has, against all odds, gotten a job. For one semester. At poverty wages. In New Jersey. But with so many of her fellow PhDs bagging groceries — or worse — instead of teaching Russian, this is the best chance she has.
New jobs come with a lot of stress, everyone knows that. But Rowena has more problems than just learning her way around a new campus and convincing all these Yankees that yes, she really is from Georgia. Tensions in the department are high, her family wants to know when she’s going to get a decent job and a decent man, and her ex-boyfriend is as usual persona non grata with the Russian government.
It’s when students start coming to her for help that she really gets into trouble, though. Rowena got where she is because she wants to help people and save the world, but if she’s not careful, her idealism may get her killed.
Witty and suspenseful in the vein of the Stephanie Plum novels, Campus Confidential is an insider’s look at the gritty underbelly of academia, where the struggles are so vicious because the stakes are so small. Only sometimes, they’re a matter of life and death.
*Content warning: We’ve got angsty adjunct professors, mouthy undergrads, a cynical Navy vet, and a career Marine all mixing it up in here. The level of adult language is significant.*

FREE for a limited time
The Wild West just got wilder. A band of eclectic characters pursue and are pursued by a psychotic, cannibalistic, and sexually deviant serial killer in remote 1867 Montana Territory. Among the pursuers are a beautiful blond paleontologist from Philadelphia, an exotic Arapaho princess, a transgender Pinkerton agent, and various circus performers. A mountain man and owner of a secret gold mine, a very short sheriff who doubles as a circus clown, a paraplegic Irish leprechaun, a sanctimonious fire and brimstone preacher, and the prodigal dog join the parade, among others. Tasked with keeping each other alive in harrowing situations, they are forced to endure the misogyny, racism, and homophobia of virtual strangers and develop a bond of loyalty despite the danger, disease, and death around every corner. They live by the motto: ‘Don’t give up; don’t ever give up,’ especially when one of them is in the death grip of a giant gator. The question becomes how many are going to die before justice is served. During the course of the adventure, the paleontologist Lady Hannah Monroe makes monumental scientific discoveries and one objective becomes to get dinosaur fossils Back East to her sponsor Professor Joseph Leidy at the Academy of Natural Sciences. She is a precursor to Othniel Charles Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope who waged Bone Wars a decade later in these same badlands that became known as the Hell Creek Formation.
