Haunted Crime Scenes is the second book in the
"Haunted Crime Scenes" series, which is based on the premise that by
working together, Crime Scene Investigators (CSIs) and Paranormal Forensic
Investigators (PFIs) may someday solve crimes and resolve cold cases hitherto
thought unsolvable. This book focuses on the paranormal phenomena at crime
scenes. Forensics expert Katherine Ramsland and paranormal investigator Mark
Nesbitt examine murder implements, victims, killers and crime scenes that
reportedly have supernatural components. They include the results of their own
investigations and offer suggestions for those sites they have not
investigated. The first half of the book highlights haunted crime scenes and
their ghost stories grouped by state. The second half features crime scenes
that have been investigated by the authors, a local paranormal investigation
team, or have appeared in episodes of various TV programs. The list includes such
infamous crime sites as The Black Dahlia, Murder Swamp/Torso Killer, Lizzie
Borden, Starvation Heights, and Jack the Ripper, as well as sites that may be
less familiar to the reader. In the first book of the series, "Blood &
Ghosts," Ramsland and Nesbitt introduced the concept of a Paranormal
Forensic Investigator (PFI) and described how the tools of paranormal and
forensic investigations complement each other.

People have asked us whether all crime scenes are haunted. Our sense of this is that they probably are, but we’re concentrating on those where psychic or paranormal phenomena have been reported—especially by several unrelated people. In addition, not all haunted sites are crime scenes, so unless it there’s some indication that a natural, accidental, or suicidal death is something else, won’t be included.
An
example would be the death of Marilyn Monroe. A psychological autopsy was done
to fully investigate her death, but so much information has emerged in
subsequent years that there are plenty of questions about her death and it’s
worth revisiting. Maybe it was a murder, but maybe it wasn't. Since it’s
unclear that her death was a suicide, we’d consider this an appropriate case
for this book. Her former home could
be a haunted crime scene. Plus, her ghost has reportedly been seen in Hollywood
Westwood Memorial Cemetery, the Roosevelt Hotel, and the place where she died
in Brentwood.On Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Haunted-Crime-Scenes-Paranormal-Criminals/dp/0990536300/ref=sr_1_1_bnp_1_pap?ie=UTF8&qid=1407768589&sr=8-1&keywords=Haunted+Crime+Scenes

We
would want to find out 1) what are the ghost reports, and 2) was the
psychological autopsy correct and complete?

Sweet Misbehavin' - Book three in the McKenna Clan Series by Christine Young
Sweet Misbehavin' is a romantic, mystical tale packed with magic, action, and adventure. Romance blooms when Margo, a novice fire starter running from an evil demon meets Carr, a heroic shape shifter. Although Margo has an innate distrust in people, especially in men, Carr gains her trust and convinces her to let him and his clan protect her and her young daughter. Not only does Margo come to know Carr, but comes to know herself, grow her powers, and trust in love again. This is a beautiful story that I heartily recommend reading. Although short, it packs a mighty wallop.
BLURB
Cast adrift after fleeing the home of Jokul, the ice demon, Atantsi, a firestarter, grew to womanhood as she moved through time to keep the demon from finding her. Though stubborn and courageous, she was ill prepared to use powers she had not been taught. Her first sight of the intoxicating Carr McKenna left her breathless, and her second encounter gave her hope for a future she never thought she had.
A playboy, a second son and a shifter, a man who thought his life would be carefree, Carr McKenna was shocked to discover the woman he’d paid as an escort is a firestarter who is running for her life. He is the leader of all the McKennas around the world and that he has multiple powers. His passion for Margo and the need to defend her might cost him his life as well as hers.

If you have a new book or contest or free book next week, let me know.
Those are some interesting and varied books. I know that families of some cold cases would love closure and the first book gives readers a different look at crime scenes.
ReplyDeleteThe other two books have beautiful covers and sound like wonderfully sweeping romances. I wish you all the best!
