A Mystery Science Fiction Triple Play
If you love cozy mysteries or science fiction you will find something to love about the Dark Side of the Moon mystery series from The Wordmaster 99 Cent Mystery Library. For the science fiction fan there is a glimpse at the near future of life in a colony on the moon. For the mystery fan there are all the familiar trappings of a small town, reluctant sleuths and eccentric characters. There's even a cat, but he's a robot.
Many mystery fans have said they don't generally like science fiction but loved these stories and science fiction fans who didn't think mysteries and science fiction mixed (as if Asimov's Elijah Bailey stories never existed) have gotten hooked on the world of History Professor (and former FBI profiler) Carolyn Masters and the blunt and sometimes obnoxious Michael Cheravik, professor of criminology and former Dallas homicide detective.
This collection includes the first three novels in the series.
Dark Side of the Moon
This is the book that began the phenomenon. Following the death of her mother, Carolyn Masters needed a change. Leaving her position at University of California, Merced for Armstrong University on the moon was supposed to be a new life and an escape from the demons of her past. However, she isn't on the moon long before her colleague and Lunar Independence advocate John Martinez is murdered. Being the first official murder on the moon, the local police are out of their depth and call in her curmudgeonly adversary Michael Cheravik to lead the investigation, and he calls her.
Together they must unravel the mystery of the professor's death, stop a terrorist attack on Earth and maybe fight a few demons of their own.
Forecast: Murder
Weather forecasts on the moon are 100 percent accurate because the undergound towns in the newly independent Luna Republic make their own weather. So, when the weather report on the news was wrong, Carolyn knew something was wrong. The phone call from Micheal confirmed it. Someone was sabotaging the weather. Before long their investigation uncovers the dark side of sports wrestling, cigarette smuggling, steroids for the brain and a serial killer.
Murder is a Family Affair
Dexter Harrington III's passion for dressing up like a vampire and hanging out in goth bars was an embarrassment for his family. The Harrington's were one of the moon's old money families. But when Dexter's body is found with a stake through his heart, Carolyn and Mike must enter the dark world of vampire play and the even darker worlds of corporate secrets and old family money. Unraveling the mystery of Dexter's death uncovers family rivalries going back generations and a terrorist plot which could kill thousands.
Also included in the collection are three mini-mysteries and excerpts from two soon to be released novels in the series.

Terri Main is a fabulous writer. I have loved her 99-cent Bible studies and now love this mystery series. This book includes three full-length mysteries, three mini-mysteries and two excerpts from upcoming books. I loved everything in the package. I will have to read more of her fiction.
