Summer Camp is supposed to be fun. Especially if your family owns it.
Some said it was tragic what happened to the Hamiltons. Some said the Hamiltons deserved it with their attitude. That they never even thanked the searchers who stayed out several nights in the freezing forest trying to help find their missing son. Some said there was a reason it took the family so long to call for help. Rumor is . . . they knew what happened to the boy.
Now, fifteen years later, the daughter the Hamiltons had in their grief has gone missing in the same woods as her brother. (family drama/thriller)
I knew our family reunion wouldn't end well.
But I didn't expect murder. I'm Ernest Cunningham. I wish I'd killed whoever decided our family reunion should be at a ski resort, but it's a little more complicated than that. After all, everyone in my family is a killer. My parents, my siblings, my in-laws . . . even me. The deaths weren't all deliberate, of course. Accidents happen. So when a body is found in the snow, it's clearly the work of a Cunningham.
But which one? And why?I'll give you one clue: it wasn't me. But a piece of advice? Never trust a Cunningham . . . (comedy/thriller)
Sanity is Subjective. Meet Mad Mabel. She knows where the bodies are buried . . .
Elsie Mabel Fitzpatrick has lived on her picture-perfect street longer than anyone. Few would suspect that this eighty-one year old has a dark past, or was known by a very different name. Because when it comes to murder, no one ever suspects little girls or old ladies. And Elsie has kept her secret buried for decades.
Enter a new neighbor with a daughter. A relentless little chatterbox who has just moved in across the street (armed with stickers, questions, and no sense of personal boundaries) and desperate to be friends.
Elsie has a strange history of people in her life coming to a foul end. So when a neighbor turns up dead, whispers swirl around her. Who was Mad Mabel fifty years ago? Who is Elsie Fitzpatrick today? And if history repeats itself…
Well, Mabel does what she’s always done best, and takes matters into her own hands.
Is she a cantankerous old lady with a shady past? A cold-blooded killer with arthritis? Or just someone who's ready to tell her side of the story? (comedy/thriller)
