Athena College’s new writer in residence is a famous native son, playwright Connor Lawton, known for his sharp writing—and sharper tongue. After an unpleasant encounter, librarian Charlie Harris heads home to a nice surprise: his daughter, Laura, is visiting and will be subbing for another professor this fall semester. It’s great news until he hears who got her the job: her old flame, Connor Lawton... Fearing competition for Connor’s affections, one of his admirers tries to drive Laura out of town.

Book excerpt: THE FIRST BOOK IN THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING CAT IN THE STACKS MYSTERY SERIES which Introduces the appealing, crime-solving duo: genial librarian Charlie Harris, and his rescue cat, gentle giant, Diesel. No good library is complete without a great cat...and an even better detective. Home for the first time in years, librarian Charlie Harris and his walking companion, Maine Coon cat, Diesel, have become familiar sights on the streets of small town Athena, Mississippi. All Charlie wants to do is devote himself to the books in his care, but those plans are shelved when he finds himself enmeshed in the claws of a true murder-mystery... Charlie’s absolutely dreadful old classmate-turned-celebrated author, Godfrey Priest, has also descended upon Athena. Fame certainly hasn’t changed Godfrey; if anything, he’s more obnoxious than he was when they were young. In one day, he’s put one man in the hospital; before the next dawn, he’s dead! Charlie and Diesel must investigate a seemingly endless supply of motivated suspects to trap the real killer before an innocent is falsely purr-secuted!

Book excerpt: Librarian Charlie Harris and his cat Diesel must content with some spirited southern ladies when a feud ends in murder in this mystery in the New York Times bestselling series. The Ducote sisters are in a tiff with Vera Cassity over the location of Athena, Mississippi's annual library fundraising gala, and Charlie would rather curl up in a corner than get into the fray. It seems everyone—even his housekeeper Azalea—has it in for Vera. And at the gala, she gives them good reason, with a public display of rancor aimed at anyone who gets in her way. But those bitter words wind up being her last. When Charlie discovers Azalea standing over Vera's dead body, it's up to him—with a little help from Diesel—to clear Azalea's name, and catch a killer before his last chapter is finished.

Before now, she would have considered them merely off-putting, never dangerous. Before now, she had never heard of any of them causing human beings to perish in agony. But that’s all changed. Micah’s estranged father lies dying, rotting away inside from some strange ailment that has his doctors whispering about “zombie disease.” Anita makes her living off of zombies—but these aren’t the kind she knows so well. These creatures hunt in daylight, and are as fast and strong as vampires. If they bite you, you become just like them. And round and round it goes… Where will it stop? Even Anita Blake doesn’t know.

Book excerpt: When a beloved mystery author’s visit causes a stir in their small Mississippi town, librarian Charlie Harris and his cat Diesel must outwit a fiction fanatic turned real-life killer. It’s National Library Week, and the Athena Public Library is planning an exhibit to honor the centenary of famous novelist Electra Barnes Cartwright—creator of the beloved Veronica Thane series. Charlie has a soft spot for Cartwright’s girl detective stories (not to mention an extensive collection of her books!). When the author agrees to make a rare public appearance, the news of her whereabouts goes viral overnight, and series devotees and book collectors converge on Athena. After all, it’s rumored that Cartwright penned Veronica Thane stories that remain under wraps, and one rabid fan will stop at nothing—not even murder—to get hold of the rare books...
