Could a rural Arkansas hotel have a hotel detective?

The bigger question is whether a hotel exists in rural Arkansas. Motels, yes, but hotels?

[Dr. Drib]

Bentonville is in rural Arkansas and there are hotels located there.

Shivaree by J.D. Horn is $0.99 at Amazon US.

As the Korean War ends, army nurse Corinne Ford returns stateside to live in the Mississippi town of Conroy with her new fiancé, Private First Class Elijah Dunne. She wonders if their love is strong enough to overshadow their differences, but upon her arrival to Elijah's backwoods stomping grounds, she understands that culture shock is the least of her worries.

After four good ol’ boys are attacked in the night while seeking to terrorize a local black family, decades of buried secrets begin to rise. From Conroy’s most powerful citizen—known as “the Judge”—to the man Corinne intends to marry, no one is innocent. Yet the deepest secret of all involves the beautiful, cruel, and dead Miss Ruby. The former belle of Conroy, and Elijah’s lost love, is neither forgotten nor truly gone. But her death is only the beginning of a slow vengeance that won’t stop until its hunger is satisfied.

It's nice sometimes to read those small slice-of-life books about an ordinary man going about his ordinary day.

Is a samurai bat anything like a ninja turtle?

Echoes of Violence by Glen Krisch
FREE


In a secret lab in the southern Illinois woodlands, scientists break through the barriers between universes. While trying to decode the mysteries of the multiverse, they unwittingly bring a deadly flu virus into their own world. At first, people die in great numbers. Then, the newly dead rise, preying upon the living like a plague of locusts.

Not only have the scientists unleashed a deadly plague, but they've changed the very fabric of time, causing those who remain to continue to re-live the same day.

The Upton family has lived and died through thousands of todays. A married couple with three kids, they run the Cherryhill Campground next to the lab. In a day of unending chaos and violence, the only thing they know for certain is they must fight to stay together no matter what.

[Dr. Drib]

^ Got it.

Thanks!

Remember: You can't keep a good zombie down, unless you bash its brains out. Oh, wait a minute: I'm confusing that with the Romance genre!
