Coffin Corner
by Dell ShannonTo a man, the members of the LAPD homicide department were yawning with unaccustomed inactivity. Then everything happened at once - a cop killed by a hit-and-run driver; the questionable suicide of a young girl; and the victim (apparently) of a heart attack found in the clutter of her 'second-hand' shop. It was the last that led Lieutenant Luis Mendoza to the Celtic Hotel, where events moved swiftly and with about as much clarity as the Mad Hatter's Tea Party. But, in this case, the tea party was lethal.

Coffin Underground (John Coffin Mystery #20)
by Gwendoline ButlerScotland Yard Chief Superintendent John Coffin is properly skeptical of the evil reputation of the house at No. 22, Church Row. True, the house has seen violent death over the centuries. None of it suspicious. Until now. Malcolm Kincaid, student. Bill Egan, recidivist. Terry Place, villain. Edward, Irene and Nona Pitt, victims. Phyllis Henley, policewoman. Why have they died? Coffin suspects something more than a haunted house. He sees a human, complex web of relationships, interlocking and interacting in a way he can't yet fathom, and in which people get caught up and destroyed--as they play into the game of a very clever killer.

A former psychiatric patient, covered with blood, is picked up for questioning and subsequently let go. Soon thereafter, John Coffin, chief commander of the Docklands district, receives the first in a series of notes from an anonymous letter writer, calling himself "the Paper Man," who promises more bodies if Anna Mary's killer is not caught. As the case goes unsolved, more bodies turn up. Who is the Paper Man? What is his relationship to Anna Mary and the other victims? And how many times will he strike before Coffin discovers his identity, or Anna Mary's killer? “Butler has the light touch of a master and a beguiling hero in the somberly monikered Coffin.” —Booklist “Coffin... solves a complex puzzle in this richly textured police procedural.” —Kirkus Reviews
