You Could Call It a Christmas Story
Short, short story about a car that slides off a road in the middle of the Storm of 2009 and the good part that follows.
The Janus Murder
Very pretty, very rich Diana Winter practically begged Casey Carmichael to find her father's murderer. A softball, like no PI ever got. Her very dumb fiance Tony Hiller had been recorded, over the phone, very much killing her father. And the fiance very conveniently confessed. Carmichael had the time and he needed the fee. The client wore big pleading eyes, had a ton of money and needed all the reassurance Carmichael could manage. Throw in Janice Simmons, a stunning reporter hot on the case, if he needed more convincing. All he had to do was go through the motions, check the octave of the recorded confession, go to the nearest bank and cash in on Diana's guilt. So, Carmichael did all the above. It went great. Diana didn't hate him much. Shrink-drugged Tony didn't much care. Janice? She wasn't much sure. But still, nice job. Only, a couple stray observations... okay, call them clues... bugged him. If errant clues meant anything at all, Carmichael had completely blown it, misreading one murder and leaving a two-faced killer free to kill some more."

The Body in the Bog
The Body in the Bog begins, appropriately, with an overdressed body stuck on a stump, floating in the murky heart of Ibis Creek Condominium. Since the victim, JJ Amos, was a bull-headed collections lawyer for Ibis Creek, his fatal dunking is sad but really good news for many an underwater owner. Normally, those happy folks would be called suspects, but Collier County's provisional line is death by misadventure, a slip and fall, relegating it to its back-burner.Decker doesn't buy the accident angle. Half the time, he wanted Amos dead himself. Hubble doesn't either and it was his call. Webster is ambivalent about any dead lawyer. Decker volunteers to be Hubble's virtual bloodhound, searching Amos' collection cases for clues that ultimately lead them to a face-to-face with an unexpectedly dangerous killer.
The Girl in the Coyote Coat
The Girl in the Coyote Coat is an epic character-driven novel, layered, witty, challenging.

Looking back at what happens after? History is not her thing. Yes, she affects others, but Adelaide is confident any damage will not outlive her very temporary stay.
