Genesis According to Methuselah
Methuselah, the oldest person who has ever lived, goes on a quest for truth, expanding the Bible with humor. He writes, My best marriage was to Sheilabenautumn, a living doll. I called her She. She called me Meth Honey. But I suffered from the neighbors evil gossip. I was 603, and She was a mere 133. The neighbors said I had robbed the cradle. The author, with tongue in cheek, traces the world of Adam and Eve, Noah, and the patriarchs through Methuselahs eyes and ears in a style that is a mock modernization of the terminology in the Bible. For example, God named the first man Adam and said, Live long and prosper. When Eve became overweight, Adam couldnt understand why. She explained, I think theres a person inside of me because I feel kicking in my stomach. I dont know from which orifice he will come out. This is a new version of the Bible that will cause readers to laugh aloud.
Exodus According to Methuselah
Methuselah, the recording angel of history, is correcting the mistakes in Exodus that the dyslexic and nearsighted scribe who copied the Bible first made. For instance, Moses’s mother takes an entire month to make the basket for the baby since Macy’s has not yet come into existence. The infant’s sister, Miriam, places the basket in the bulrushes of Nile to save the Hebrew baby from being killed. Pharaoh’s daughter, who has severe psoriasis, rescues the infant and raises him in the palace. When Moses is ten, he is taught how to box. At the age of sixteen, he learns how to drive a chariot. That gives him the inspiration to initiate chariot races when he’s seventeen—long before the Roman ones as depicted in Ben-Hur. Moses is placed in an anger management class that he hates. He becomes an unquestionably great leader but never fully controls his temper for the rest of his eventful life.

After the Wedding
The wedding that takes place in the ballroom of the 5-star Palm Tree Hotel in Key West is upended when Flora, the bride, is murdered in the bridal suite. The groom, Mark Morris, a physical therapist, is arrested by the sheriff. Meanwhile, Lloyd, the bartender, and Lori, his wife and concierge, set out to clear Mark, who is in deeper trouble than he’s ever known. Lloyd and Lori suspect that the killer may be one of the people who visited Flora after the wedding—maybe the stepmother, or one or both of her twin sisters, or her first cousin, or, possibly, the chambermaid. Mark is prosecuted in a lengthy courtroom trial for the murder of his wife. Lloyd and Lori race against time to identify the killer before the jury would render a guilty decision for a crime the defendant didn’t commit.

Sadie prevails upon her reluctant spouse to help her entrap the murderer while they are on a much-needed vacation. She also contacts Rhajmah, her psychic, pickle-eating customer and friend to help her unravel the enigma and keep her out of jail. She needs all her skill, energy, ingenuity, eccentricity, and Poirot-like grey cells to unravel the mystery. The Beauty School Murder is an expansion of an earlier version of the cozy mystery story, Curl Up and Die.
