Detective Errol Coutinho of the Hawaii County Police faces the most difficult case of his career, when his wife's best friend is murdered. Eleanor Swieczak's current boyfriend is a man without a past, but Eleanor's own history turns up other suspects, and someone is trying to put Coutinho among them. And what do a legendary marijuana dealer, a rightwing militia, and the coldest murder case in Hawaii history have to do with the case? Must blood fall like rain before Coutinho finds out? Praise for BLOOD LIKE RAIN: "Another mysterious, bloody puzzle led by Hawaiian homicide detective Eric Coutinho. It's old-school stripped-down mystery, subtle and nuanced. Author Albert Tucher puts his library of crime-tale know-how to good use in Blood Like Rain. If you love mysteries that unfold like a game of chess, this one will satisfy." -Elaine Ash, inventor of the Bestseller Metrics novel-editing system "Albert Tucher's Blood Like Rain brings old-school sleuthing and thoroughly modern problems into sharp focus against the lush backdrop of some of Hawaii's most beautiful vistas. Intense, fast-paced, twisty, and ultimately satisfying, this is what crime fiction is all about." -Jamie Mason, author of The Hidden Things "Blood Like Rain is a terrific book! Set amidst the lush beauty of Hawaii, Albert Tucher takes us for a non-stop, white-knuckle roller coaster ride filled with twists and murder and betrayal. Homicide Detective Eric Coutinho must find the killer terrorizing this island paradise before he becomes the next victim. Think Hawaii Five-O on steroids. Highly recommended." -R.G. Belsky, author of the award-winning Clare Carlson series "Tense, taut, and thrilling, Blood Like Rain moves like a getaway car. Albert Tucher takes the conventions of classic police procedurals and remixes them with Hawaiian culture and settings to create a gripping mystery." -Hilary Davidson, bestselling author of Her Last Breath

Blood Like Rain: A Big Island Mystery

Shotgun Honey

Three months back there was a suicide bomb in Tunisia, a prison riot in Colombia, and Australia was on fire. Italy fought a losing battle with an insidious virus, which went on to engulf the planet in a worldwide pandemic. The first world shut down. Then we watched a public execution, by a so-called peace-keeper. Then the rioting and looting began—and you know what came next, because you’re living it. The world in 2020 isn’t what it once was. The west is on fire with revolution and unrest. Violent crime and lawlessness are on the rise. Which is good news if crime is your business. And whether the world bounces back or burns down to ashes, there will always be storytelling. For Switchblade, storytelling is our business, and business is good. This is the twelfth issue of the world’s only no-limit noir digest magazine. Featuring 13 reality-check, hard luck tales of the human condition, before and after Covid-19.

Elm Books is proud to resent the fourth book in our mystery collection, with eight stories featuring a female sleuth and tea. Choose your brew carefully... some are comforting, others are deadly. But whether your style is English, Jasmine, Chai, Green, or Vanilla Cream there's bound to be a cup for everyone! The fourth mystery collection from Elm Books features female sleuths and protagonists from Elm Books veterans along with a few exciting newcomers. In these eight stories you'll find eight wide range of lovable characters. In "A Cup of Chai" Robert D. Hughes proves that detective work is more exciting than biology homework as a college student solves the mysterious murder of a local tea house owner. Professional sleuths in Lee Mullins' "Edith Jones Just Got Game" and Lynn Finger's "Fear on Eight Legs" solve crimes from Philadelphia to the far reaches of the galaxy. Tea is a civilizing influence and a key to answers both for the prim and proper Miss Wisner of Albert Tucher's "Miss Wisner Will Pour" and for a team of psychological researchers investigating an escaped mouse Sharon Nelson's "Civility: Worth a Try When All Else Fails." And justice is on the menu in Stephanie Rico's "Extraordinary Happenstance", Wendy Worthington's "A nice cup of Homicide", and Cheryl Korte's "A Garden of Simples as their heroines dish out boiling hot revenge with two lumps of sugar.

Office Jessie Hokoana of the Honolulu P.D. has an undercover assignment that tests her loyalties and takes her to the brink of death. When their cases collide in the rainforest of the Big Island, family ties turn deadly, and there may be no pu’uhonua—no place of refuge—for anyone.

Criminal defense attorney Agnes Rodrigues got her client Hank Alves acquitted of a murder in the rainforest of the Big Island, but the victim was a cop's wife, and a case like this doesn't end with "not guilty." When someone takes a shot at her client, and that someone looks like a cop, Agnes knows no one in Hawaii will take on the job of protecting Hank. Agnes travels to New Jersey to hire ex-prostitute Diana Andrews and her crew of bodyguards, who have a reputation as the toughest in the business. But Diana refuses the job. The Jersey girl has been to the Big Island before, and it almost killed her. Diana's own people persuade her, but her decision puts her in the crosshairs with Agnes. The bodyguards are soon earning their payday, but nobody can be protected forever. Keeping Hank alive means finding the real killer, and Diana might know the answer from first career. And what Agnes has to do outside the courtroom will make her an honorary Jersey girl, if it doesn't kill her first. Praise for THE HONORARY JERSEY GIRL: "A lean, mean confluence of complicated women and the seedier side of paradise, The Honorary Jersey Girl is suspenseful and plenty of fun." --Kristen Lepionka, Shamus Award-winning author of the Roxane Weary mystery series "The Honorary Jersey Girl has the kick-assiest cast of women--badass bodyguards, wily hookers, and a fierce attorney--who power this taut, relentlessly-paced novella that rips through the gritty underworld of Hawaii like a stray bullet, searching for flesh to pierce. This is deeply satisfying noir from a master of the craft." --Kevin Catalano, author of Where the Sun Shines Out
