PIERCED
ENGER, THOMAS
Oslo’s top investigative crime reporter Henning Juul is still haunted by the death of his son. Every time he looks
in the mirror, he sees the scars from the horrible fire that killed his six-year-old boy. So when he receives a
message from convicted murderer Tore Pulli, he can’t stop himself from following up: “If you find out who set me
up, I’ll tell you what happened the day your son died.” Pierced follows Henning Juul to Tore Pulli’s prison cell,
where the felon sends the reporter on a quest to find the real killer behind his false conviction. Juul knows the
murders pinned to Pulli don’t bear his signature, but when Pulli is found dead of an apparent suicide, Juul begins
to realize there’s much more at stake.

THE PIGEON PIE MYSTERY
STUART, JULIA
When Indian Princess Alexandrina is left penniless by the sudden death of her father, the Maharaja of Brindor,
Queen Victoria grants her a grace-and-favor home in Hampton Court Palace. Though it is rumored to be
haunted, Alexandrina and her lady's maid, Pooki, have no choice but to take the Queen up on her offer. Aside
from the ghost sightings, Hampton Court doesn't seem so bad. The princess is soon befriended by three
eccentric widows who invite her to a picnic with all the palace's inhabitants, for which Pooki bakes a pigeon pie.
But when General-Major Bagshot dies after eating said pie, and the Coroner finds traces of arsenic in his body,
Pooki becomes the #1 suspect in a murder investigation.
