1. No Laughing Matter:
When a naked woman flashes past Nick Madrid’s hotel window, it’s quite a surprise. For Nick’s room is on the 14th floor, and the hotel doesn’t have an outside elevator. The management is horrified when Cissie Parker lands in the swimming pool-not only is she killed, but she makes a real mess of the shallow end. In Montreal for the Just For Laughs festival, Nick, a journalist who prefers practicing yoga to interviewing the stars, turns gumshoe to answer the question: did she fall or was she pushed? The trail leads first to the mean streets of Edinburgh and then to Los Angeles, where the truth lurks among the dark secrets of Hollywood.
2. A Ghost of a Chance:
Nick Madrid isn’t exactly thrilled when his best friend in journalism-OK, his only friend in journalism-the Bitch of the Broadsheets, Bridget Frost, commissions him to spend a night in a haunted place on the Sussex Downs and live to tell the tale. Especially as living to tell the tale isn’t made an urgent priority. But Nick stumbles on a hotter story when he discovers a dead man hanging upside down from an ancient oak. Why was he killed? Is there a connection to the nearby New Age conference centre? Or to The Great Beast, the Hollywood movie about Aleister Crowley, filming down in Brighton?
3. Two to Tango:
Nick Madrid is sent to South America to report on a Rock Against Drugs tour. As if big spiders, piranhas and tiny, spiky fish that lodge where they’re not wanted aren’t bad enough, Madrid’s drawn into the mystery of who is trying to kill rock megastar Otis Barnes.
4. The Once and Future Con:
When the grave of King Arthur is discovered Nick Madrid and Bridget Frost go in search of Camelot. But instead of chivalrous knights they find rival Heritage Industry marketing men, and when Nick does some digging it’s not relics he finds but murder victims.
