Bareback
Lola Galley is used to doing things she doesn't want. She certainly doesn't want to be assigned the case of Richard Ellaway, the man who, under a cold full moon, mutilated a good friend of hers. But being a bareback, what she wants and what she gets are seldom the same. For those born feet-first, life is comfortable, and one night a month they lock themselves in a secure room to fur up in peace. Barebacks, trapped in their human skin and drafted at eighteen into the Department for the Ongoing Regulation of Lycanthropic Activity, don't have it so easy. A full moon means patrolling the silent night in search of transformed citizens breaking the curfew. The rest of the month, DORLA agents mop up the after-effects of the trespasses, the fights and the maulings. Resignedly, she takes the case - but before Ellaway can be tried, her maimed friend is murdered. Lola wants justice. She'll settle for the truth. But in a divided world, asking for the truth may bring answers that you don't want to hear.
Murder by the Bottle
Noir master Jim Thompson meets mistress of suspense Patricia Highsmith in a scintillating debut set in the world of art, wine, and provincial retail Keir Rothwell is an angry young man. Spurned by his lover and mentor and ejected from his art school, he is lost - but determined this will not be the end of his artistic endeavors. A new job in a local wine shop gives Keir a creative outlet - a chance to turn shop floor drudgery into an original work of art. But his wine critiques mock the shop's clientele and tension builds on both sides of the counter. When his new project is threatened, conflict becomes murder and long buried secrets threaten to destroy the artist. But Keir Rothwell will not be undone. Tautly written and threaded with dark humor, Murder by the Bottle is a compelling study in character, criminality and truth.
