Something Old and Other Stories
(2026)(A book in the Faye Longchamp Mystery series)
A collection of stories by Mary Anna Evans
Faye Longchamp is back, and she's bringing back all the mystery, archaeology, suspense, and romance that her fans have always loved.
She's also getting married. And she's terrified.
Days before the wedding, a letter comes in the mail and three photos drop out. One of them is a century-old photo of her family with a little boy she can't identify. The letter is from a woman named Annika who knows some old secrets that Faye's family kept from her. Annika will only talk to Faye face-to-face, so the smart thing to do would be to go after the wedding, but there's a problem. Annika's more than a hundred years old, and she won't be around much longer. Every day that Faye waits is a roll of the dice, so she and her fiancé Joe Wolf Mantooth hop on a plane to New York City, where they will find answers to questions Faye never thought to ask. They will also find that Annika's story is laced with poison, violence, and an evil that nobody but Faye can uncover.
Will they get home in time to get married? Will Faye even get around to buying a wedding dress? Will the ever-patient Joe survive the turmoil?
Something Old and Other Stories includes the novella-length Something Old, the fourteenth story in the Faye Longchamp Archeological Mystery Series, along with eight of award-winning author Mary Anna Evans' short stories:
"Love Lies Bleeding" inhabits the world of aging rock stars.
"Watching the Detectives" explores the psychological fallout after the death of a very bad man who leaves four children with nowhere to go.
"All Big Men are Dreamers" asks how the world would have been different if the most powerful man in the world had married a different woman.
"Mouse House" takes you above and beneath the most famous theme park in the world.
"A Singularly Unsuitable Word" pits a dangerously independent little girl against murderous Prohibition-era bootleggers.
"Land of the Flowers" pits a mild-mannered environmentalist against a swamp full of alligators.
Genre: Mystery
