Artifact
Summary
Dealers in illicit artifacts, murderous pothunters, an amorous homicide detective, an enigmatic shaman, and two irregular aides-de-camp conspire to thwart the larcenous efforts of a young widow from California to recover her husband's body and get rich in the process.
Vicki never dreamed that she would turn to a life of crime. Neither did she dream that she would be running through the jungles of southern Mexico dodging a disparate group who variously want to rob her, kill her, and arrest her. She is, however, a resourceful and determined woman who weaves a web of lies and red herrings from Mexico's southern border to its northern one. Along the way, a new man slips into her life. Can she trust him? Can he trust her?

St. Anthony's Fire
Summary
Around the turn of the 15th century, a Dutch master called Hieronymus Bosch painted a very strange painting. According to modern thinking, it is, perhaps, psychedelic. It is a triptych depicting the Garden of Eden, earthly delights, and Hell. Virtually nothing is known about the man known as Hieronymus Bosch. St. Anthony’s Fire explores some possibilities to explain the man and what drove him to paint so bizarrely.

The Klansman's Wife
Summary
In the late 70s, a young Californian takes a job in South Carolina. On his first day, he is introduced to a stunningly beautiful, but married, woman, the black janitor, a hard-drinking electrical engineer, and a couple dozen assorted misfits. In the first week, the janitor is found hanging from a light pole, and the married woman begins paying attention to him. On his way to work on Monday morning, the vacant field that he thought was a farmers’ market contains the charred remains of three crosses. After his divorce, Mason is desperately in need of a job and equally in need of a woman, but what is Jill’s motive for coming onto him so blatantly? And where do the bruises come from that she tries to hide beneath makeup that her faultless face doesn’t need? It doesn’t take long for Mason to realize that leaving California was a major mistake. He is now in a world where he can buy a gun at a gas station, but can’t buy a broom on Sunday, and every other Saturday night, the field where the crosses are burned is full of police cars.
