The Vital Principle

Welcome to the witty, intriguing world of the Second Sons Inquiry Agency!

Writing mysteries set in the Regency period can be challenging. Forensics and medicine as we know it today were in their infancy and the thermometer used to take a person’s temperature wasn’t widely used until 1867 when Sir Thomas Allbutt invented the first practical medical thermometer. Even then, it took 5 minutes! So establishing the time of death in even so crude a way as taking the body’s temperature was nearly unknown, leaving investigators almost exclusively with their wits and the bits and pieces of circumstantial evidence they could collect.

But it was precisely those challenges that interested me and led to the creation of an Inquiry Agency where all those luckless second or third sons who would never inherit their family’s fortune could come to exercise their intelligence.

The Vital Principle is the first book featuring Knighton Gaunt, the founder of Second Sons.

Determined to maintain her independence and social status, Prudence Barnard stretches her small income by being little more than a professional, and entertaining, guest. If her hostess wishes to communicate with the spirit world then Pru is happy to oblige her, even if it is mostly a sham.  And it goes well until she discovers her host has hired an inquiry agent, Knighton Gaunt, to expose her as a fraud.  Unfortunately, her host is poisoned and suspicion soon falls on her. She is under investigation and that seems to be motive enough according the rest of the guests. The others unite to blame her and shield their own secrets.

Desperate to prove her innocence, Pru tries to persuade Knighton to let her help, but he refuses.  Anyone who claims to speak with THE VITAL PRINCIPLE of the dead cannot be trusted. However, nice men are rarely murdered and as Knighton digs into the pas, he finds that many of the guests have much stronger reasons for wanting their host dead. When a tragic, second murder is committed, Knighton gives Pru the benefit of the doubt in order to unveil the real murderer before she, or he, can strike again.

  

Can Spiritualism really be the motive for murder?

Rochelle’s Reviews says:

I usually figure out who did it at least halfway through the book. Ms. Corwin kept me guessing right up until the very end. I’m glad this is the first book in a series. I will be reading more of Ms. Corwin’s books. I’ve found a new favorite author, and a Regency mystery writer, at that!

The Pale Mansion - a Lovecraft tribute horror story

Welcome, Investigator! Please check your Elder Signs. If you are here,
you are probably interested in the strange house we have 'round here,
just down this road...


The Pale Mansion is a Cosmic Horror story intended as both a tribute to
Howard Philips Lovecraft and as a light polemic with his writing,
written by a professional translator and longtime Lovecraft fan.
It is available on Amazon online bookstore in kindle format.


The Story

Recounted from the first person perspective, The Pale Mansion tells the
story of one Arthur Bollingham, an heir to the eponymous estate. As the
young man will soon find out, the Pale Mansion is not just any old
house, and living there might not be as healthy as in other places of
the country.

The Characters

One of the reasons The Pale Mansion came into being in the first place
was dissatisfaction with H.P.L's protagonists. The story endeavours to
present characters with distinct personalities, who differ from each
other and have rather more depth than was a standard for Lovecraft. They
vary in temperament, knowledge and skills, a fact which might influence
their fates greatly :

Arthur Bollingham - an economist in his late twenties, Arthur is the
heir to the Pale Mansion and narrator of the story. He is a
level-headed, rather conventional young man, fond of symmetry and
observing proprieties.

Quincey Hartman - a physician and Arthur's best friend, Mr. Hartman is
much less strict in his demeanour. He likes a good laugh, long walks,
big glasses of port and dogs.

Sarah Noyes - Arthur's cousin, a young lady of impeccable if rather dull
upbringing. She is intent on providing her cousin with company, such as
she might offer.

The Place

Most of the recounted events take place in the eponymous house, the
building itself being placed somewhere in the "Lovecraft Country" we all
know and love. The estate is situated near Providence, Rhode Island, but
excessive landmarking and descriptions have been avoided, on purpose.
The real stage of events is, and has always been, the human mind.

Enjoy your stay around the Realm of R'lyeh, Investigator. You might want
to write us about your experiences, lest your knowledge dies with you...

Shotgun Start

Greetings to my fellow GoodKindle readers out there. My name is Mike
Nettleton and I'm a retired broadcasting gypsy turned mystery author. I've
co-written 5 books with my wife, Carolyn Rose and Shotgun Start is my first
solo title. With this book I combined three things I loved, suspense and
mystery fiction, golf and the high desert around Albuquerque New Mexico.
Anyone who's live in New Mexico will testify to the unique character of the
place and the reviewer's have told me I've captured that. If you're not a
golfer, have no fear, the emphasis is on the mystery-suspense angle. Golf is
strictly a backdrop for nefarious goings on including: Biker gangs, The
Methamphetamine Trade, Internet Porn, sleazy television hosts, Ex wives in
trouble and the search for the meaning of true love. Please let me know if
you need more info. Here's the book cover.

Fourteen Days Later



A big hi to everyone in Goodkindles land! 
I'm Sibel Hodge and I haves 8 cats and 1 husband. In my spare time, I'm Wonder Woman! When I'm not out saving the world from dastardly demons, I writes quirky chick lit with a hefty dose of screwball comedy. 

If you like fun romantic comedies, you'll love my bestselling novel Fourteen Days Later...

Fourteen Days Later was short listed for the Harry Bowling Prize 2008 and received a Highly Commended by the Yeovil Literary Prize 2009. It is a romantic comedy with a unique infusion of British and Turkish Cypriot culture. Written in a similar style to Marian Keyes, it is My Big Fat Greek Wedding meets Bridget Jones.

When accident-prone Helen Grey finds a thong stuffed into the pocket of her boyfriend's best work trousers, it's time for her to move on. His excuse that he needed to dust the photocopier and just thought that it was a rag sounds like a lame excuse.

Helen's life is propelled in an unexpected direction after her best friend, Ayshe, sets her a fourteen-day, life-changing challenge. Helen receives a task everyday which she must complete without question. The tasks are designed to build her confidence and boost her self-esteem but all they seem to do is push her closer to Ayshe's brother, Kalem.

How will Kalem and Helen get together when she's too foolish to realize that she loves him? How can he fall for her when he is too busy falling prey to her mishaps and too in love with his own perfect girlfriend? How will Kalem's Turkish Cypriot family react when they find out?

Is it really possible to change your life in fourteen days?

"A hilarious romance! The storyline was entertaining and funny; the characters were unique, colorful,and relatable. I had a hard time putting this one down because I never knew what funny catastrophe or line would come next."
--The Cajun Book Lady

GRANDPA HATES THE BIRD: Six Short Stories of Exciting, Hilarious and Possibly Deadly Adventure

Hello Goodkindles Readers!

I’m the author of GRANDPA HATES THE BIRD, a collection of comic short stories for young readers. Do you enjoy watching old men trying to kill small animals? (No, not Charlotte’s Web – Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny!) Are you a child between the ages of 6 and 10 or an adult who reads to one? Then you’ll love GRANDPA HATES THE BIRD! Just think: the next time you’re stuck in a crowded waiting room, you can hand your cranky child your smartphone with a story about a funny bird instead of a video game about Angry Birds!

Here’s what one reviewer had to say on Amazon:

Stuck in endless traffic with my 8th and 4th grade kids, husband and mother - no problem! We read, "Grandpa Hates the Bird" aloud and were all riveted. When we arrived at our destination our 9 year old howled "Oh no! Keep reading." Bird, the main character, is a rare combination of astute and charming. His voice, wildly amusing, echoes the realities of domestic family life. And we don't particularly like birds. Well, we didn't.” - Susan Fried

Here’s a description:

“Alas, it’s true. Grandpa hates me. He has always hated me, even before I used his ear as a swing toy (his lobes are so long and flappy!). I can’t imagine why. I assume Grandpa hates me simply because I am the bird—and he is not.”

Everybody loves Bird. Joseph and Maya, Mother and Father, Humphrey the dog, Slick the snake. Everyone except Grandpa, who will stop at nothing to set Bird free. Forever.

• How does the battle begin when Bird and Grandpa are alone together for a whole week?
• See classroom chaos in Bring Your Pet to School Day!
• Exactly what are they hunting at the Aw Shoot archery range?

In the spirit of Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd, and Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote, here come Bird and Grandpa. So fasten your feathers, warm up your wings, and buy GRANDPA HATES THE BIRD here: http://www.amazon.com/GRANDPA-HATES-BIRD-Hilarious-ebook/dp/B005MTBDLO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1321541955&sr=8-1

Venture Untamed

Hello, Goodkindles readers! I'm R.H. Russell, the author of Venture Untamed, probably the only MMA (mixed martial arts) fantasy out there. Though technically a fantasy because it takes place in a made-up world, the only magic in Venture Untamed is the power of the fighter in all of us—and the power of love, both of which young Venture Delving, a bonded servant with impossible dreams, discovers in this novel.

Venture Delving is a bonded servant, a member of the lowest class in the world. Already fatherless, when he loses his mother, he veers from energetic to out of control. But when Venture's rage saves the life of Jade, his best friend and his master's daughter, Venture finds himself in the last place he ever expected—a center renowned for training young boys to be professional fighters.

When Venture realizes he's fallen in love with Jade, he knows that the only way he'll ever have her, the only way he'll ever be free to live the life he's meant to live, is to defy convention, common sense, the trust of those he cares about most—and sometimes the law—and become the best fighter in the world, the Champion of All Richland. Venture must battle not only rival fighters, but the ghosts of his past and the members of a privileged warrior class who stand between him and his dream.

Hazardous Choices

Greetings, GoodKindles readers! I am proud to announce the release of
my second ebook, Hazardous Choices. Darnell Jackson is a young
African-American man living in a gang-infested area of Chicago. To
save his life, he joins a gang and is forced to do things he abhors.
When an opportunity to escape this deadly world is offered to him, he
accepts gladly. A football scholarship to a small rural Kentucky
college could be his ticket out and a life free of violence and fear.
But will his gang let him go, and worse, when they find out he lied to
them to break away, will they retaliate?

Book Description: After surviving life in a violent Chicago street
gang through his high school years, Darnell Jackson's future appears
promising. A football scholarship gives him the chance to escape the
thug lifestyle.

During his first year in college, Darnell safely resides in a small
Kentucky town, playing Division Two college football and trying to
make something of himself. Adjusting to the new surroundings proves
tough, but a teammate and a girl give him hope that his future will be
better than his past.

In the summer after his freshman year, he returns to the old
neighborhood to be with his mother. The gang reasserts its hold on
him, and the leader orders Darnell to kill a member of a rival gang.
Nearly dying in a gang fight, Darnell shoots an enemy gangbanger. This
forces Darnell to re-evaluate his future. As a result, he lies to the
mercurial leader of his gang, claiming he completed his assignment.
After "doing work" for his gang, Darnell receives permission to head
back to school and the security of small-town life.

When the head gangbanger learns of Darnell's lie, the small Kentucky
town isn't so safe any more.

Thus The Order came to be, having banded all mankind together into unity. The Order created a monarchy to rule the land, relegating itself to the interest of the gods. From The Order sprang Justices – divine warriors whose purpose was to maintain good and law in the land, doing the will of the gods.

While attempting to keep her safe and grow into his new abilities, he becomes tangled in the plans of a man in possession of unholy magic, never before seen in the realm, who is bent on opening the eyes of humanity to a dark truth.

Daron struggles to fit into a world he doesn't fully understand and fight to keep humanity safe, while delving into Leah's difficult past. With the fate of the kingdom at stake, he has to trust in the gods, but not is all as it seems.

Arctic bush pilot Harry McNills is minding his own business and dreaming of retiring to the Caribbean--when two scientists from Cryolabs Corporation charter his plane for a scientific expedition. The beautiful young biologist Amy Tyler and her boss, the avaricious Hayden Lockwood, want to explore for freeze-tolerant organisms. Harry gets more than he bargained for when he falls for Amy and discovers an ancient terror entombed in an iceberg. A Navy team is assembled to exhume the remarkable find. But before the job is completed, something goes horribly wrong...and Harry and Amy find themselves trapped in a desperate struggle for survival.

 

Creepers

Eat your heart out, Roger Corman!

 

This is a "creature feature" that's big fun with a cool B-movie vibe.

 

Think Tremors when a zany group of characters struggle to save their home after a genetically altered creeper vine invades a small desert town with an insatiable thirst… and a taste for human blood.

 

Doc Fletcher, an eccentric biologist in the remote Mojave Desert, has finally created the ultimate drought-tolerant plant: a genetically engineered creeper vine. It's destined to change the world, but not according to Doc's plans. Instead, this vine has a mind of its own. Mayhem ensues as the residents of Furnace Valley (pop. 16), along with campers at the nearby hot springs, run for their lives – led by wannabe date rancher Sam Rainsford and the nerdy yet gorgeous botanist Laura Beecham, who has come to the desert for a reunion with the father she has never known…

Thicker Than Water (Blood Brothers)

Hi, I'm Greg. I love the mythology surrounding vampires, but I have a tendency to loathe vampire fiction. Too often they're a bunch of tofu-sucking day-walking Goth kids who whine about monotony of eternity because after a thousand years they still haven't learned to enjoy life. I wrote 'Thicker Than Water' because I thought I could do better, because I thought the vampire ought to be a hedonistic sadist who views himself as more important than humanity. The story shows readers the world through the eyes of two two god-like antiheroes who feud with one another as they seduce women, rob trains, burn down buildings, and otherwise wage war against all things wholesome from the wild west up to present day Las Vegas.

As a word of warning, this is a book for mature audiences, and preferably audiences who hate the human race and it's notions of decency.

The Impressionists

Hello Goodkindles Readers,

 

I'd like to introduce you to my short story collection The Impressionists.

 

They say never judge a book by its cover but it's something many of us are guilty of at some point or another. Of course, judging a person by their appearance is equally foolhardy, as none of us can know the personal turmoil behind the public façade of a perfect stranger. But what if we could…

 

The Impressionists is collection of six poignant, sometimes heart-wrenching, sometimes heart-warming and frequently witty first person short stories from award-winning author Andrew Biss.

 

Each of these stories juxtaposes the public face with the private, conflicted person behind it.

 

BIG GIRL:

 

An overweight young woman named Peggy appraises her recently purchased self-help book, "The Bigger the Better."

 

THE REPLICA:

 

An abused wife reflects on her past and deconstructs the emergence of the replica that now haunts her present.

 

A SMALL ACT OF VANDALISM:

 

Malcolm, a gentle, middle-aged soul with a troubled mind, keeps his mother's remains sealed in a small porcelain box. What he keeps hidden among his memories, however, isn't so easily contained.

 

ONE NIGHT ONLY:

 

Denny, a prisoner on death row in an Alabama State Penitentiary spends his final moments reviewing his career as a serial killer in an interview with himself.

 

ORGAN FAILURE:

 

A woman in the viewing room of a funeral home addresses the body of her lover in the coffin before her.

 

WYWH:

 

Eileen, a reclusive, middle-aged divorcee, still haunted by the loss of her son, discovers a new life in the virtual world.

One Pink Line

Greetings Goodkindles readers! I have just released my debut novel, One Pink Line, and am thrilled to finally have it available on Kindle. And although my eight-year old son told me it was the worst book title he's ever heard, I am pretty darn proud to be able to share it with you. Thanks so much for your interest. Enjoy!

Book Description:
Can the love of a lifetime be forever changed by one pink line? Dina Silver's tender, absorbing novel, One Pink Line, is the warmhearted, wry story of love, loss and family, as seen through the prism of one singular, spirited young couple who find themselves in a predicament that changes the course of their lives, and those closest to them. With heart, humor and compassion, this debut work of women's fiction is certain to stir anyone who relishes a good laugh, can stand a good cry, and, above all believes in the redemptive power of love. This unique, contemporary story gives readers a dual perspective. Sydney Shephard, a sweet-tempered, strong-natured college senior is young, in love with an exceptional man, and unexpectedly pregnant. Faced with a child she never planned for, she is forced to relay this news to her neurotic mother, relinquish her youth, and risk losing the love of her life. Then there's Grace, a daughter, who believed she was a product of this great love, grows to realize her existence is not what she assumed, and is left with profound and puzzling questions about who she really is. Spanning generations and every imaginable emotion, One Pink Line reveals how two points of view can be dramatically at odds, and perhaps ultimately reconciled. Simultaneously deeply felt and lighthearted, One Pink Line deftly mines how the choices we make are able to alter so many lives, and how doing the right thing and living honestly can bring unexpected, hard-won happiness. It's a must-read for anyone who craves a great love story, absorbing characters, and plenty of laughs along the way.
