Mark McNease Mysteries Podcast #76: A House in the Woods 2: The Devil's Due (Chapters 10-12)
Mark McNease Mysteries
Today’s episode continues ‘A House in the Woods 2: The Devil’s Due.’ This story was inspired by an old house along the road where we live. It’s since been torn down—too many ghosts hanging around, possibly—but every time we walked by it when it was empty I kept imagining something evil behind the old faded door. It helped that we live in the woods, providing a read-made title. We called it the spooky house. It soon became the center of two books: A House in the Woods, and A House in Woods 2. A House in the Woods 2 picks up where A House in the Woods left off....

Mark McNease Mysteries Podcast #74: Michael Connelly's 'Nightshade' Launches New Series with a Bang
Mark McNease Mysteries
Welcome to my newest recommendation. I won't call these reviews, at least not technically, because I won't be offering anything I didn't like! These are books I've read and think you'll enjoy, too. We're starting out with a brand new series and character from Michael Connelly, a maestro in the detective genre whose crime novels I've been devouring for thirty years. I couldn't put this one down, which is almost always true for me with a new Michael Connelly. Listen in and see what I think of the author, his writing, and his new must-read 'Nightshade.'

Mark McNease Mysteries Podcast: Fatal Mistake - A Harry Hell Novella (Chapter One)
Mark McNease Mysteries
I am so excited to bring back the Mark McNease Mysteries Podcast with one of my favorite stories ... a novella, actually, that had an incredibly long gestation in the recesses of my imagination. I'd put it off as an audio option because the voice technology I use wasn't quite good enough. Now I think it sounds terrific. Yes, it's AI/synthetic voice. I would never pretend otherwise. So fasten your headphones, and let's get this dark, dark party started. The year is closer than you think. The world has collapsed under the weight of its own insatiable needs, leaving shattered cities where those...

New year, new exciting announcements! The audiobook for 'I, Warlock: The Warlock Wars Book I' is now out.
