Parks Pat Cases 1-6

I love the blend of homicide investigation (the police procedural element), personal reflection (the personal element of the sole Indigenous detective who is also raising a teenage daughter on her own), and picturesque scenery (the nature element), all of which combine to yield a tantalizing mystery imbued with character, dimension, and authenticity which draws you into the narrative and irrevocably holds your attention right up to the last page.

Take a walk in a Calgary park with Parks Pat.

This collection includes cases 1-6:

OUT WITH THE SUNSET

Margie Patenaude is new in town and wasn’t expecting to get called to a murder scene on her daughter’s first day of school.

It’s an ugly murder in a beautiful setting. How can Calgary’s park-goers feel safe with a murderer still on the streets—or pathways? Margie and the team are on the case while at the same time she and her daughter try to acclimatize to the new city.

LONG CLIMB TO THE TOP

Detective Pat is called out to another park homicide scene with disturbing similarities to the Fish Creek murder. Digging more deeply into the evidence reveals something even more worrisome. If her instincts are right, this case may hit a little too close to home.

DARK WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE

Detective “Parks” Pat has made a name for herself in solving the Fish Creek and Glenbow Ranch murders, so she is the one they call when a body turns up in Ralph Klein Park. She would be happy for the confidence placed in her if it weren’t for the fact that the body is in the water.

IMMERSED IN THE VIEW

Detective “Parks” Pat is back. Now an established and accepted member of the homicide squad, she unexpectedly brings a new case to the table when she stumbles across a body as Canada Day dawns. While it was initially assumed to be an accidental drowning, the autopsy results say otherwise.

SKIMMING OVER THE LAKE

It’s Parade Day, and Margie would have thought that any trouble would have centered around drinking and motor vehicles. Or being trampled by horses. Or clowns. But the latest homicide investigation is nowhere near the parade route, but on the outskirts of town. And the culprit appears to be a tiny boat.

HAZARD OF THE HILLS

A woman is found at the bottom of a 70-meter drop. It is pretty clear from the beginning that she was killed in the fall.

But you can never be sure until the medical examiner’s report comes back. It would appear that there is a lot more to be investigated after all.

Investigate this new series today!

This promises to be a wonderful series with fantastic characters, interesting locations, and fascinating glimpses into different cultures. The story is of novella length and can easily be read in one sitting if so desired, there is no offensive language, no sex, no graphic violence – just a whopping good story everyone can enjoy.
—Kim, Goodreads

The writing is excellent, the plot is nice and twisty and the the characters and situations are believable. I enjoyed this book and am looking forward to seeing where she takes these new characters.
—Sandy, Goodreads

I am enjoying this new series. The first book was good and this one was even better. Love the characters and the storyline. Can’t wait to read book number three in this series.
—Kandy, Goodreads

I feel like I’m visiting Calgary, Canada and the parks where the murders are taking place in all three books so far. There are vivid descriptions of the park and the wetlands. Margie and her family are woven throughout along with their ancestry which adds a nice touch.
—Joanne, Goodreads

I love these stories. Short, exciting and not really predictable, as many short stories are. Plots are well-developed, characters are interesting, and there’s plenty of local lore and history. 
—Alice Hazelbaker, Goodreads

Author Notes may contain spoilers!

I was working on a collaborative project with another author when we came up with an idea for murders that took place in provincial parks. After my involvement with the creation of the Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park, I was quite excited about the idea. That project ended up not going anywhere, but I had already scheduled the time to write it, so I decided to take a run at murders that took place in Calgary area parks on my own.

I had been thinking about setting something locally for a while. Most of my stories are set in the USA, which always means doing extra research into those little details like weather and climate, foliage, animal life, and sunrise and sunset times, as well as cultural aspects such as speech/colloquialisms, dress, demographics, jobs/industry, government, and more.

Setting a series in Calgary, I could take advantage of my knowledge and experience living here. I walked through the parks with my husband, scouting out various places where bodies could be found and features of the park that might come into play. I took pictures and immersed myself in the settings. We tried to be careful not to talk too loudly about body dumps or murder around other park visitors, and luckily didn’t have any actual Calgary police officers coming to our door asking what we were up to!

“[P.D. Workman’s] stories are so believable and you can’t help but feel like you know these people. You find yourself crying, laughing and feeling the characters emotions. Now if an author can make you cry and feel every emotion in a story, she is one hell of an author.”

“P. D. Workman, does not shy from probing the deep psychological scars of childhood trauma, mental illness, and addiction. Also characteristic of this author, these extremely sensitive issues are explored with extensive empathy, described with incredible clarity, and portrayed with profound insight.”

“Once again P.D.Workman has created an intense psychological mystery that impacts a wallop of thought induction. The writing is so well developed and draws you into the characters story.”

Unleash the Magic of Ink and Shadows

Posed for Death, the sixth book in the Kenzie Kirsch Medical Thriller series has been released!

Join Kenzie Kirsch as she uncovers mysteries, conspiracies, and thrills in Posed for Death — a must-read for fans of medical thrillers and mystery novels alike!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

Ink and Shadows is the fourth book in Ellery Adams’ Secret, Book, and Scone Society series, and the first one I have read. The protagonist is not the innocent, law-abiding citizen that usually stands in as the protagonist in a cozy mystery series. She has weathered a number of mistakes in the past, and she and her close group of friends in the society are of the opinion that everyone deserves a second chance.

They welcome newcomer Celeste and her daughter Bren to the small town of Mystic Springs. But avoid getting too attached to them.

As the story unfolds, we’re treated to a world of books, backstories, and best friends. There’s something truly special about the bond between Nora and her friends, and it’s a joy to watch them work together to solve the mystery at the heart of the story.

And I am impressed with the way that the author handled alpha-gal allergy. It’s a topic that is rarely explored in fiction, but Ellery Adams does an excellent job of weaving it into the story.

Overall, Ink and Shadows is a must-read for fans of cozy mysteries. With its engaging characters, intricate plot, and expertly crafted world, it’s a book that will leave you wanting more. There is enough information to read Ink and Shadows as a standalone and to intrigue me enough to want to go back to the beginning and explore this series further.


“I know. Wasn’t it awesome?” Her smile didn’t reach her eyes. “I mean, who wants to be an angel? They don’t have any fun.”

Ellery Adams, Ink and Shadows
Summary

Known for her window displays, Nora Pennington decides to showcase fictional heroines like Roald Dahl’s Matilda and Madeline Miller’s Circe for Halloween. But a family-values group disapproves of the magical themes and wastes no time launching a modern-day witch hunt. Suddenly, former friends and customers are targeting not only Nora and Miracle Books, but a new shopkeeper, Celeste, who’s been selling CBD oil products.
 
Nora and her friends in the Secret, Book, and Scone Society are doing their best to put an end to the strife—but then someone puts an end to a life. Declared an accident, the ruling can’t explain the old book page covered with strange symbols and disturbing drawings left under Nora’s doormat. It’s up to Nora and the Secret, Book, and Scone Society to sort out the clues before more bodies turn up and the secrets from Celeste’s past come back to haunt them all . . .

The streets of Washington, D.C. have never been the safest, but now they run red. After the murder of a high-profile political figure, the public is demanding answers. All signs point to a single killer stalking the citizens. But the facts don’t align, and the good doctor isn’t convinced.

With help from FBI agent Andre Winters, Giselle must excise the truth no matter how bloody. In their pursuit for answers, the duo soon realize they are in over their heads. As the case heats up, Andre and Giselle can’t deny their growing affection for each other despite the obvious risks.

With time running out and a killer on their heels, they will be forced to make unimaginable decisions. But will they make the right ones? Catching the murderer may cost them what they value most—each other.

Dr. Vince DeLuca would normally take a Tito’s straight up with two olives after a ruptured ectopic pregnancy nearly flatlined a patient. Maybe follow it up with a one-night stand to chase away memories of the trauma that’s kept his life stagnant for so long.

But when he overhears one of his recovering patients—married to the CEO of a defense contractor—mumbling about “stingers,” “revenge,” and her affair with a mysterious man named Salaam, Vince’s PTSD alights. Sure, it could just be the ramblings of a woman on too much morphine, or she could be talking about the missing anti‑aircraft weapons he read about and a highly sought-after terrorist.

Vince decides to leave it to the FBI, not suspecting that they would send him Carolyn, a drop-dead gorgeous, slightly insane CIA agent who needs his help. Vince is soon thrown into the fray and finds himself both utterly in love and using everything he ever learned in his medical career—including how to clamp a subclavian artery with a zip tie—to help home in on the terrorists’ plot, but not before they discover him and come looking for blood.

Determined to stop the slaughter, Emma follows her gut to track the killer. But nabbing one man out of thousands is like finding a needle in a moving haystack, and she fears that her crew doomed. Can the willful doc outsmart a ruthless assassin to save her people, or will she rot in a watery grave?

Surgeon Richard Kurtz has recently accepted the position of Chief of the Division of General Surgery at Easton Medical Center, and is not surprised to find himself dealing with a new set of problems. Still, he had been expecting those problems to be professional, not personal, and so he is taken aback when Joanna Levinson, the wife of Peter Levinson, a surgeon, asks Kurtz to speak with her husband.

Peter Levinson is disturbed. He’s not sleeping at night. He’s going out at all hours. He’s visibly distressed.

Levinson, it turns out, has reasons to be distressed. An old friend, lawyer Richie Capaldi, has suffered a traumatic brain injury. Two other old friends have vanished…and then Peter Levinson is given an ultimatum by mobster Leo Berlusconi to pay back money that Berlusconi claims Levinson owes him.

Lew Barent and Harry Moran are investigating the assault on Richie Capaldi and Kurtz has information that might help them solve the case.

Kurtz is not a cop, as his cop friends keep reminding him, and he has no desire to interfere with a police investigation, but Kurtz has never run from a fight, and when the threats against Peter Levinson escalate, Kurtz, Barent and Moran find themselves embroiled in a conspiracy involving prostitution, fraud, blackmail and long-simmering revenge.

Booked to Die: A Page-Turner with a Unique Twist

Last week was Living Donor Day! Find out more about organ donation in last week’s blog post and Unlawful Harvest, the first book in the Kenzie Kirsch Medical Thriller series.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

Booked to Die by John Dunning is the first book in the Cliff Janeway series. Janeway is a homicide cop with a personal vendetta against a man he knows to be a serial killer, but who keeps slipping through his fingers. He is on the hunt for the person responsible for the death of a book scout, who initially appeared to be another victim of the serial killer but was not. Janeway is a book collector himself and knows a lot of the players in the book sale business in the town, and he starts to make his rounds. But things happen and he ends up out of the police force and setting up shop as a bookseller.

What makes Booked to Die a compelling read is the author’s attention to detail when it comes to the rare book industry. Dunning’s experience as a Denver Post police reporter in the 1970s and his ongoing involvement in the used and rare book trade served as the inspiration for the Cliff Janeway novels. As a result, readers get a glimpse into the inner workings of the book sale business, which adds an extra layer of intrigue to the murder mystery.

I am still unwinding this mystery, but I would not hesitate to pick up another in the series.


This is the story of a dead man, how he got that way, and what happened to some other people because of his death.

John Dunning, Booked to Die
Summary

Denver homicide detective Cliff Janeway may not always play by the book, but he’s an avid collector of rare and first editions. Bobby Westfall is a local bookscout, a gentle and quiet man who has sold enough valuable books to keep himself and his cats fed and housed. When Bobby is murdered, Janeway would like nothing better than to rearrange the suspect’s spine. But the suspect, local lowlife Jackie Newton, is a master at eluding the law, and Janeway’s wrathful brand of off-duty justice costs him his badge.

Turning to his lifelong passion, Janeway opens a small bookshop—all the while searching for evidence to put Newton away. When prized volumes in a highly sought-after collection begin to appear, so do dead bodies. Now Janeway’s life is about to change in profound and shocking ways as he attempts to find out who’s dealing death along with vintage Chandlers and Twains.

Unlawful Harvest and Living Donor Day

April 11 this week was Living Donor Day to raise awareness for living organ donor transplants.

Kidneys are one of the most common living organ donations. Believe it or not, the first successful kidney transplant performed on humans was done in 1954. (Animal donations go back as far as 1902!) In the US, annual kidney donations top 25,000 per year, but this is far below the number actually needed.

Other tissue and organ donations that can be made by living donors include lungs, part of the liver, bone marrow, skin, bone, and blood components.

WAYS TO SUPPORT NATIONAL LIVING DONOR DAYVisit with your physician to begin the steps to becoming a living donor.Support organizations that help find matches for those on the national donor list.Help out a family who is recovering from a donor surgery.Hold a fundraiser to alleviate costs for a living donor or recipient of a donor surgery.Learn about the different types of organs and tissue a living donor can give.Honor and support the transplant medical professionals and health systems that make living organ donation possible.Share your story about becoming a living donor or receiving an organ donation on social media using #NationalLivingDonorDay.

NATIONAL LIVING DONOR DAY | April 11 – National Day Calendar

In honor of Living Donor Day, I am putting Unlawful Harvest on sale for one day only at $2.99 at Google Play and my estore. Grab it today, because tomorrow it will be back to full price!

Unlawful Harvest is the first book in the A Kenzie Kirsch Medical Thriller series. I have just release book #5 in the series, Rushin’ Death, and book #6 and 7 are available for preorder.

Kenzie Kirsch started out as a secondary character in the Zachary Goldman Mysteries series, and Unlawful Harvest is her origin story.

@media screen and (min-width:768px){.stk-8fd7e47{flex:1 1 calc(66.7% - var(--stk-column-gap,0px) * 1 / 2 ) !important}}Unlawful Harvest

Unlawful Harvest is a Kenzie Kirsch Medical Thriller. If you have been reading the Zachary Goldman Mysteries, then you have met Kenzie Kirsch, who works in the medical examiner’s office. 

This story will take you back to before Kenzie started medical school, to the case that first attracted her to medical investigation. 

When an Urban Legend becomes reality

Kenzie Kirsch had led a sheltered life; daughter of a wealthy lobbyist, her way had been paved for her, and she wasn’t really required to do much in life. There were events to make an appearance at, boards to sit on, fundraisers to support, but she could pick and choose what she wanted to do and how busy she wanted to be. 

When she set out to find out why her sister Amanda was so ill, she had no idea where her amateur investigation would take her. Amanda’s illness had never been discussed. Amanda deserved her privacy. 

As Kenzie’s questions take her deeper and deeper into the murky world of transplant tourism, Kenzie starts to wonder just what her parents have been covering up, and who else’s life might hang in the balance.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I enjoyed the fast pace of the story which kept me flipping pages late into the night. It is one of those books you just don’t want to put down until you have read the very last word. If you enjoy suspense, intrigue, family drama, spell-binding imagery and great character development, you will absolutely enjoy reading this book.

If you are a reader of the Zachary Goldman Mysteries series, you have already met Kenzie Kirsch. This series is a spinoff from Zachary Goldman Mysteries, giving Kenzie a front-and-center position in solving medical mysteries.

Μην ξεχνάς τον Στίβεν

by P.D. Workman


Translator: Catherine Zouganeli
Genres: Greek




Retailers Μην ξεχνάς τον Στίβεν

Ποτέ δεν αποκάλυπτε τι συνέβαινε πίσω από τις κλειστές πόρτες. Αλλά αυτή τη φορά, του είναι αδύνατον να θυμηθεί.

Τα πράγματα δεν ήταν ποτέ εύκολα για τον Στίβεν. Αυτό το αποδέχεται και κάνει ό,τι καλύτερο μπορεί. Μπορεί να μην έχει γονείς ή ένα ευτυχισμένο σπίτι ή αρκετά για να φάει τις περισσότερες μέρες. Αλλά τουλάχιστον έχει μερικούς πιστούς φίλους που του συμπαραστέκονται και τον βοηθούν όταν μπορούν. Και τουλάχιστον έχει σχολείο, ένα μέρος όπου μπορεί να πηγαίνει για να ξεφεύγει από την κακοποίηση.

Αλλά εκεί που νόμιζε ότι τα πράγματα δεν μπορούσαν να γίνουν χειρότερα, έγιναν.

Ο Στίβεν κατηγορείται για φόνο. Αλλά αυτό δεν είναι το χειρότερο. Το πραγματικά κακό είναι ότι δεν ξέρει καν αν τον έκανε αυτό το φόνο.

Perseguido por el Pasado

by P.D. Workman


Translator: Cristina García
Genres: Spanish




Retailers Perseguido por el Pasado
Perseguido por el pasado es un libro lleno de drama y suspenso. Envía un fuerte mensaje sobre la importancia de confiar en tus instintos y lo que puede pasar si no lo haces

Vanna tuvo una buena vida. Tenía sus desafíos, como las altas expectativas que su madre tenía de ella, pero en general, tenía un trabajo que disfrutaba, un pasatiempo divertido y amigos. Ella no necesitaba ninguna complicación.

Pero todo eso cambió poco después de intentar romper con Tino. El teléfono llama sin nadie al otro lado. Regalos anónimos. Alguien moviendo cosas en su dormitorio.

Una orden de restricción no cambió nada. En todo caso, hizo que las cosas se intensificaran. Si Vanna quiere recuperar su vida, tendrá que tomar las cosas en sus propias manos. Perseguidos por el pasado es un apasionante thriller psicológico en el que el villano no es un vampiro ni monstruo, sino una sombra oscura del pasado. Es una pesadilla que te puede pasar a ti. ¿Cómo te adaptarías y sobrevivirías?

Elogio de Perseguidos Por El Pasado

“¿Qué haces cuando te enfrentas a un acosador maníaco? ¿Alguien a quien no querías conocer o con quien no querías tener nada que ver? Perseguido por el pasado es una historia maravillosa, intensa y al borde de tu asiento sobre eso”. Ser perseguido por tu pasado…”

“Disfruté mucho leyendo Perseguido por el pasado y descubrí que no quería dejarlo”.

Elogio Para P. D. Workman

“Cada uno de libros de P.D. Workman me han hablado de una manera que nadie o casi nada más lo ha hecho. Y he encontrado fuerza en los libros que he leído”.

“La forma en que escribe P.D. Workman fluye asombrosamente y permite que el lector se involucre realmente en un libro”.

Unraveling Secrets in I Shall Not Want

In case you have not yet read last week’s blog post: check out Celebrating Autistic Identity and observe Autism Acceptance Month by embracing neurodiversity and promoting inclusion for individuals with ASD. Shift perspectives and advocate for autistic rights. Read some autism/neurodiversity positive books!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

I Shall Not Want is book number six in Julia Spencer-Fleming’s Clare Fergusson and Russ Van Alstyne mysteries series. I have not read the other books in the series, but have had enough information in this episode to read it as a stand alone. It is a good thriller and I would be inclined to read any of the other books in the series.

The characters are unique and well-developed. The mystery has been suspenseful and twisty, and they are getting close to solving it. And there is a strong romantic subplot for those who are looking for it.

Three—well, four, now—murders is certainly enough to grab anyone’s attention. What is going on in this small community that they have not figured out until now?

I have to confess, I am not fond of a flash-forward prologue. The book starts with a high-octane shootout scene, but it’s unclear what is happening or how the characters got there. Then, with a man dying on the ground, the reader is thrown back into the “six months previous” main storyline, with no explanation of how the gunfight ties into the larger narrative.


Thank you … For calling it decisiveness instead of ‘jumping in without thinking things through!’

Julia Spencer-Fleming, I Shall Not Want
Summary

In the searing conclusion to All Mortal Flesh, Police Chief Russ Van Alstyne’s precarious balance between duty and desire was broken by his wife’s tragic death. Now, Russ and Episcopal priest Clare Fergusson are separated by a wall of guilt and grief. When a farmhand stumbles over a body, Clare is reluctantly drawn into the investigation through her involvement with the migrant community. The discovery of two more bodies could mean a serial killer is on the loose. As spring turns into summer, Russ is plagued by media hysteria, conflict within the police department, and a series of baffling assaults.

Throughout the escalating tensions, emotions are fueled as Russ and Clare find themselves seeking each other out, even as they intend to keep distant.
