This month, you enjoy two fun short stories with strong female leads–one murder mystery, and a fantasy adventure featuring a dwarf and her demon sidekick:
Tale of the Tape: A Kira Brightwell Short Novel (Mystery)
A bootleg Nine Inch Nails cassette tape.
Weird thing for Kira to find abandoned by a sewer grate on her way to school.
The hand-drawn NIN logo in marker catches Kira’s eye. Who tossed the tape? And why?
Kira pockets it, of course. Seems a shame to leave it in the gutter. Who knows what kind of extra tracks she might find on it?
…Now she only needs to figure out a way to play the thing.
A twisting, short novel of Kira’s high school past from the Kira Brightwell mystery series by Jacquelyn Smith.

Merchants peddle fear in Belierumar.
Mothers cling to their children as they walk through the crowded marketplace. Eyes dart as people hurry to make their dubious purchases.
Demon-warding amulets. Herbs guaranteed to help victims of possession. Paige inspects them all with a jaundiced eye.
The young dwarf woman knows how to deal with demons. Probably better than anyone else in Lasniniar.
…With good reason.
In the aftermath of war, a new era begins in this stand-alone story from the World of Lasniniar epic fantasy series by Jacquelyn Smith.
