Keyhole is a humorous sci-fi novel for the adult market. People who enjoyed Spaceballs, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, or the Discworld series will delight in my book.When Nick, a short red biped from the planet Ghoul, loses his job as a gravity tech on a starship, the grifter Egrog asks him to join a caper promising to make them both rich. Nick has a gambling problem and is deep in debt to the vicious loan shark Urk. If he misses one more payment, Urk will make him an involuntary organ donor on the black market, so he agrees to Egrog's proposal.Aided by a poetry-obsessed AI unit, they bumble from one predicament to another, getting captured by cannibals and being pursued by a curmudgeonly dragon as they close in on their goal. But when the end of their quest is in sight, they stumble across the source of the galactic government's revenues-trade in a powerful narcotic, a secret that puts them in greater danger than anything Urk could devise.

Ghost of 22 Mountain is the story of a woman who met death under mysterious circumstances when she was still young. The story is set in the mountains of West Virginia where the victim was born and lived.Of the dozens of people who might have committed the crime of murder, only one paid the price. He was a young black who served as handyman in the urban estate where Mamie Thurman lived with her husband, the policeman on the downtown beat of Logan, West Virginia.It is not likely that Clarence Stephenson was the guilty party, even if he were involved in a most unlikely way in the disposition of the body of Mamie Thurman.There were many others who could have killed the lovely Mamie, all of them members of the urban elite of the small West Virginia town. Mamie was a promiscuous flapper known to all of those who ran things in the town of Logan.Who was the real killer? Ghost of 22 Mountain offers the enticing story of all the candidates, while leaving the decision with you.
