The Obituary Collector
Malice and brilliance make a deadly combination. Dignified, silver-haired Parsifal Snowe is an enigma even to his closest associates. He has an air of omniscience, tempered by a courteous, self-effacing demeanor. How did such a man end up the leader of a motley crew of psychic detectives? The Obituary Collector takes us back to 2006 and the founding of Snowe Agency. Mr. Snowe is asked for help in a series of deaths in a psychiatric hospital, where each is preceded by a note containing clues in the form of literary quotes. Very quickly he sees that the killings are the work of a highly intelligent—but profoundly disturbed—mind. Is it one of the psychiatric patients? One would think so, bu...
Forbidden Fruit
Forbidden Fruit is a collection of fascinating, largely untold tales of ordinary men and women who faced mobs, bloodhounds, bounty hunters, and bullets to be together—and defy a system that categorized blacks not only as servants, but as property.

A white woman who falls in love with her deceased husband's slave. A young slave girl w...

Slings & Arrows
Sometimes payback comes when you least expect it. When writer Kathy Rawls hires Snowe Agency to investigate the disappearance of her drunkard and ne’er-do-well husband, it seems that there’s really not much to investigate. John Rawls was last seen leaving the local bar after a typical bender, and no one is sure of his whereabouts. But something about the story doesn't sit right with Jeff Kolnikoff, the agency’s resident researcher and telekinetic. While typically reluctant to be actively engaged in the agency’s investigations due to his shy, awkward nature, the neatness of the scenario Mrs. Rawls paints bothers Jeff, and he starts looking into the missing man’s life. He quickly fin...
Land Use Scenarios
Any alteration of the natural processes occurring on a piece of land will have expected as well as unanticipated effects, and those effects have little regard for arbitrary human boundaries. Consequently, it is not enough for land managers to consider only how they might maintain the parcels for which they are responsible; they must also anticipate
