Media Reviews
"While BLACK MOUNTAIN is similar to 'Deliverance' in that its main characters are being stalked in a wilderness setting, Les Standiford does an excellent job of making this a character-driven story instead of a straight action piece." -- Chris Petrakos
-- Chicago Tribune Books
"Even the most contrived scenes-of hapless victims pitching off a cliff, tumbling into a gorge, disappearing in a blizzard-capture the treacherous beauty of the wilderness, defined here in the crisp lines and clear detail of an assured author's strong prose style." -- Marilyn Stasio
-- New York Times Book Review

God Is a Bullet
by Boston Teran
When his young daughter is abducted by a bloodthirsty, devil-worshiping cult called "The Left-Handed Path," a desperate father joins forces with a vengeful young woman, a survivor of the cult, on a quest through a brutal world of child pornography, murder, and drugs to save his daughter.

Once Too Often
by Dorothy Simpson
Just a week away from his only daughter's wedding, Inspector Luke Thanet gets a phone call that saves him from writing his speech for the reception, but presents him with an even more challenging problem. Jessica Dander, a journalist for the regional newspaper, has been found dead with a broken neck at the foot of her own staircase. Was it simply an accident, or, as evidence suggests, was she pushed? And investigation just yields more questions. Who left Jessica's front door open and why? Who called the police and disappeared before the authorities arrived? Why is her high-heeled shoe in an odd position on the third step from the top? Who was the mysterious prowler Jessica reported to the police? And who didn't have reason to hate Jessica, an angry, irascible woman who may have let loose her fury on those around her just once too often? The further Thanet and his partner, Detective Sergeant Mike Lineham, dig into the victim's relationships with family and acquaintances, the more their list of possible suspects grows. From her browbeaten husband, Desmond, to her lover to the prowler, it seems almost everyone had a reason to wish Jessica dead.
The Ghost
by Marc Olden

Shell Game
by Carol O'Connell
The recreation of a legendary magic trick goes horribly awry on live television--a terrible accident, everyone agrees. But two people know otherwise. One is an aged magician in a private hospital and the other is streetwise Kate Mallory, now a New York City policewoman.
Road Rage
by Ruth Rendell
The woods outside of Kingsmarkham were lovely, dark, and deep. And they were about to vanish forever when the new highway cut through them. While Chief Inspector Wexford privately despaired about the loss of his hiking grounds, local residents and outsiders were organizing a massive protest. Some of them were desperate enough to kidnap five hostages and threaten to kill them. One hostage was Wexfords wife, Dora. Now, combining high technology with his extraordinary detecting skills, Wexford and his team race to find the kidnappers whereabouts. Because someone has crossed from political belief to fanaticism, and as the first body is found, good intentions may become Wexford's personal path to hell.
