RURAL INDIANA – A PLACE WITH ACRES AND ACRES OF FARMLAND TO HIDE DEAD BODIES
The rural Indiana landscape seems so bucolic, from the gently rolling hills of the south to the easy sway of cornfields in the north. Who knew those picturesque barns could hide criminal activity as well as livestock, or those rustic cemeteries be rife with murder victims as well as those who died of old-age? The members of the Speed City Sisters in Crime chapter, that’s who! In these seemingly peaceful rural settings, our authors uncover criminal deeds, unearth long dead secrets, provide justice for the wronged, and thwart the plans of the wicked. Sixteen tales testify that from the wide-open farmland to the small farming towns, the opportunity for mayhem and mischief is ever-present. Come along with authors Leanne Edelen, Roberta Barmore, Diana Catt, Joseph Walker, Andrea Smith, Ramona Henderson, Shari Held, Jon Burroughs, P.K. Richard, Mary Bischoff, Carol Paddock, Elizabeth San Miguel, Ross Carley, Norm Campbell, Stephen Terrell, and Elizabeth Perona as they explore the dark and deadly mysteries hidden within the fertile soil of rural Indiana.  Trick or Treats: Tales of All Hallow's Eve
Crumbling mansions and ancient cemeteries. Haunted houses and med school dissection rooms. All are terrible places to visit on the spookiest night of the year. So, of course the authors of Speed City Sisters in Crime go there—and you can go with them. From Halloween parties to autumn festivals to trick-or-treaters, Indiana is the home of ghosts, apparitions, and in-the-flesh evil ones, in this time and yesteryear. Sixteen tales for All Hallows’ Eve, when the veil between the afterlife and this life thins, and the night fills with wonder and dread.
Experience the season with exceptional stories by Speed City Crime Authors Teri Barnett, C.L. Shore, Stephen M. Terrell, Shari Held, Janet E. Williams, Joan Bruce, Ramona G. Henderson, Ross Carley and Karen Phillips, Elizabeth A. San Miguel, C. J. Nelson, C.A. Paddock, J. Paul Burroughs, Mary Ann Koontz, B.K. Hart, Elizabeth Perona, and Diana Catt. |
