Book excerpt: Within a sordid history full of deadly secrets, no one can be trusted—not even family. No one is more mysterious than the reclusive Brannon family, descended from the town founders. When Claire, the eldest daughter and driven lawyer, is found dead from an apparent suicide, her free-spirited sister Kenzi rushes home determined to uncover the truth about this shocking act. Still haunted by their fraught relationship, Kenzi must now care for Claire’s brooding teenage daughter Ember, who believes the family's abandoned mansion hides sinister secrets. Strange occurrences in the home lead them to question whether someone—or something—wanted Claire dead and covered up the crime. With the help of handsome, relentless detective Graham Felton, Kenzi and Ember begin unraveling the family's hidden legacy and disturbing history of violence to uncover the chilling truth behind Claire's demise. But will digging into the cryptic clues put them directly in the path of Claire's killer and make them the next victims? As they untangle twisted bonds of family loyalty and obsession, Kenzi and Ember, once strangers, forge new family connections. Together, they plunge into the chilling secrets hidden within the shadows of the neighborhood's most tragic home.

Book excerpt: FACE IT. WE CAN GO ANYTIME. BUT IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS! Death becomes you, and it's just another fact of life explored in Cause of Death, a revealing abundance of startling data, false perceptions, bizarre fallacies, and some totally unexpected statistics about how, why, when, and where we all bite the dust, check out, buy the farm, kick the bucket, and all those other euphemisms for perishing after falling out of bed (roughly 1,800 fitful sleepers a year). It also answers questions most people never even consider (but should): Do crocodiles kill more people than alligators? Are we more prone to commit suicide or murder? How many still die from leprosy? Does salmonella have anything to do with salmon? Can the condition of your toenails predict your mortality? What's the connection between kitty litter and brain damage? Has irony ever killed anyone?* Disease, accidents, occupational hazards, poisons, plagues, infections, murder, fauna and fungi, insect bites, war, and even bison. What's the most popular killer of the decade? The rarest? How many deaths per year by age? Gender? Location? Time of day? Stupidity? All this and more in a book you really shouldn't be living without. * Yes! While experimenting with the safe preservation of food in snow, Sir Francis Bacon caught a cold and died.
