Killer Coffee and a Batch of Cookies
Summary
In this collection, Donna Foley Mabry brings us a novella, a selection of seven short stories, and reminiscences of growing up in Detroit. In "Killer Coffee", four retired women gather daily on their patios in the 55-plus community where nothing exciting ever happens. They pass the time plotting imaginary murders. An unforeseen tragedy turns their murders into the real thing and reveals the one woman among them who might be capable of actually committing the crime. In “The Trade”, an aging actress will do anything to look younger. In “Trinkets”, a young woman discovers that the one material thing she treasures most isn’t at all what she expected. In “The Estate Sale”, an older man examines his life and marriage and ponders his future. Fans who have asked Donna to write her own memoirs will be thrilled to listen to the collection of her blog postings that reveal more about how she became the person she is today.

Deadly Ambition
Summary
President Tim Connors is slipping badly in the polls and doesn’t stand a chance of being re-elected. Chief of Staff Arthur Locke blames the First Lady, abrasive feminist Congresswoman Rachel Connors. Locke thinks he has the solution. Wouldn’t it be easier to re-elect a handsome, grieving widower? When his plan to assassinate the President’s wife goes terribly wrong, Locke sets in motion a chain of events that could allow him eventually to place himself in the presidency. Hired assassin Vincent Chambers tells Locke, “Killing a president is easy. Getting away with it is the hard part.” Locke’s wife, Elaine, discovers his plan to kill Rachel and vows to stop him, even if she has to kill the man she once loved with all her heart. Washington DC is crawling with ambitious characters. There’s the randy Vice-President Dennis Quinn, whose trysts with underage girls make plenty of copy for the tabloids, the slovenly head of the DNC, Arnold Combs, who doesn’t really care who wins, as long as it’s a Democrat, the Assistant Chief of Staff, Ralph Mason, who’s so head over heels in debt that murder for money seems a logical way out. Secret Service Special Agent Jason Hall, along with the FBI, the CIA, and Arlington Chief of Police Tom Reilly, all sort through the scarce clues, but will any of them find the solution in time to prevent another murder?
