Book Buzz: Authors Gregg Olsen, Bernadette Pajer, and Kathleen O'Brien, dazzle with electric mysteries, paranormal young adult, and a journey through loss into love.

Best-selling Gregg Olsen kicks off his eerily paranormal young adult Empty Coffin series with Envy, a hard-hitting look at cyber-bullying. Bernadette Pajer takes us back to the early days of electricity with another electrifying whodunit featuring savvy professor Bradshaw, as Fatal Induction follows A Spark of Death. Kathleen M. O'Brien debuts A Light in the Heart, an inspirational story of a shattered woman rebuilding her life, struggling through pain and loss to find purpose and love. And Billy Mays shares the true story of his decades in the eastern European underworld in a sometimes irreverent and shocking look into the dark and dangerous Soviet Bloc before and after the fall of the Berlin Wall in On the Job Training: Berlin to Vladivostok.

In Port Gamble (aka "Empty Coffin"), Washington, truth is about as hard to come by as a sunny day. One minute Katelyn is a depressed teen with a loser life. The next, she's lying on a stainless steel slab, eyes glassy, skin frosted over, and very, very dead. New York Times bestselling Gregg Olsen's YA debut Envy exposes cyber-bullying in this ripped-from-the-headlines story...with a paranormal touch.

Bernadette Pajer

Fatal Induction by Bernadette Pajer - $14.95

Professor Bradshaw fans delight: the professor is back in an electric new mystery. Pajer's fast-paced whodunit series once more bring the Seattle Police—and murder—to Bradshaw's doorstep during the social and scientific turmoil of the early twentieth century.

In book one, A Spark of Death, set in 1901 Seattle, a puzzling electrocution points to murder. Electrical Engineering professor Benjamin Bradshaw is the chief suspect. To protect himself and his son, Bradshaw hunts for the true killer. Death lurks everywhere—disguised as accidents. Before it's too late, will Bradshaw discover the circuit path that led to a spark of death?

Fatal Induction

In book two, Fatal Induction, the race to win an electrical competition incites Professor Bradshaw's obsession for invention. But before he can enter the contest, Bradshaw discovers an abandoned gypsy wagon behind his house. What happened to the father and child who lived in this cart? Following the trail, Bradshaw plunges into a seedy underworld. Frustrated by the police department's apathy and caught between power struggles, he doesn't know whom to trust. Each step of his investigation entangles him deeper in crime and corruption until he realizes that to save the child, he must transform his contest entry into a trap to catch a killer.

"crackles with mystery, romance, and expert, evocative explanation of electricity at the dawn of the 20th Century in vibrant frontier Seattle. Bernadette Pajer's splendid debut promises dogged Professor Benjamin Bradshaw will be solving crimes in many books to come." — William Dietrich, New York Times Bestselling Author

"a well-crafted historical mystery novel, posing and answering intriguing questions ... at a time when technology was propelling America into the future." — David Marshall, Thinking About Books Blog (read the entire review here.) Thinking About Books

"shines brightly, bringing a real sense of scientific inquiry and wonder to the turn-of-the-20th-century historical. [Pajer's] ability to weave together technology and emotion ... makes for an engaging series." — Library Journal

A Light in the Heart

"A Light in the Heart bursts with humanity, exploring the pitfalls of the pursuit of personal perfection, while reminding every reader that a rich life comprises luck, both kinds. Perhaps most poignantly, it is a story that reminds us that the places of our human lives are not scenery and that the uphill roads lead home." — Jacquelyn Mitchard, best-selling author of The Deep End of the Ocean

"Kathleen O'Brien's debut novel is stunning... The story shows the strength of women, the unexpected nature of life and the central need we all have for acceptance and love. Light in the Heart is a novel full of well-developed characters, charming settings and positive messages.  I recommend it to those looking for an uplifting and wonderful story. Highly recommended." — A Cozy Reader's Corner Reviews Read the full review here: http://www.acozyreaderscorner.com/2012/02/light-in-heart.html
