2015 KINDLE BOOK AWARD FINALIST! It’s murder in paradise. Who killed local debutante Delores Fogel in the sleepy, Central Texas town of Elysium? Benjamin LeFren was exonerated for the crime and released from jail thirty years after the fact, thanks in part to Shane Robeling, former FBI Agent and now Elysium’s Chief of Police. But now Shane is not so sure of LeFren’s innocence. When LeFren shows up in Elysium, Shane must now guard LeFren from the townspeople he has sworn to protect, and the only way to do that is to hire him as his ranch foreman, thus—in theory—keeping him out of harm’s way. But then the psychological warfare begins. As the local death toll begins to mount, Shane must discover whether it is LeFren carrying out the killings, or someone else from thirty years dead and gone. ACCOLADES for Murder In Elysium: "George Wier has done it again! Murder in Elysium is the multi-layered, dark tale of a decades old murder in this small, picturesque Texas town. Police Chief Shane Robeling still searches for the killer, and his association with Elysium is…complicated. Razor sharp, distinctive characters and a wicked, twisting storyline; these are Wier’s forte, and he is at the top of his game in this tale of murder, secrets, and lies in a town whose surface beauty hides both violence and depravity underneath." —Billy Kring, author of the Hunter Kincaid Mysteries “There’s a reason George Wier ranks among my favorite authors. The man is a first class storyteller who never fails to entertain me with his captivating tales of Texas intrigue and mystery. He’s done it again with Murder in Elysium, the story of an old murder in a small town where secrets and betrayal lurk just below the calm surface, and you never know what skeletons hang in the closets of the folks you nod to on Main Street or sit next to at the counter of the diner. Don’t start this book until you have time to read it all the way through because like all of Wier’s books, you won’t be able to put it down!” —Nick Russell, Author of the Big Lake mystery series. “George Wier writes the kind of mysteries that make you skip the chores or forget what's on TV, because you just want to read one more chapter. Then another. Add Murder in Elysium to that list. If you haven't discovered Wier yet, you’re in luck, because he has more than a dozen novels waiting to keep you entertained.” —Ben Rehder, Author of the Blanco County mystery series. “The rot that lies beneath the veneer of small-town friendliness is George Wier’s fodder in his masterful Murder In Elysium. In Shane Robeling, he has a detective that should be the replacement on the sad day that Bill Travis (of The Bill Travis Mysteries) finally has his last adventure. With enough clues to point to any and everyone, this mystery will keep you guessing until the final chilling reveal.” —Robert A. Taylor, Author of Warp and The Lascaux Nightmare, and the creator of Today In Alternate History.

It's 1975, two years before the murder of Delores Fogel shocked the Central Texas town of Elysium, setting up the chain of events that would lead to the post-millennium conclusion to the mystery in Murder In Elysium. Michael Lee "Mucho Love" Harper, Elysium's Chief of Police, has a double-murder on his hands, and this is the strangest killing of his career. The Childresses were wealthy and they had their fingers in every slice of local pie. They were, however, hermits, hoarders, and the owners of a chain of funeral parlors that stretched from the Gulf Coast to El Paso. Mucho Love, Elysium's sentinel, must delve deeply into the dark secrets of his own town in order to catch the killer and hold onto his job-a monumental task, because the powers-that-be want anything but a resolution.

The protagonist of this tale is Ed Lane, a retired Army officer, widower, and father of a twenty-one year old daughter about to leave for law school. A few years ago, he embarrassed a congressman and was fired from his job as a Federal Police Inspector. Lately, he's been working at odd jobs-bail agent, pizza deliveryman, private investigator, and, most recently, bartender at Keiko's, a small jazz club. A Keiko's regular, the president of Elysium Analytics, hires Ed Lane to identify the person who hacked into his company's computer network and posted damaging information on the Internet. Lane interviews company founders, managers, employees, ex-employees, and others. All are dissatisfied and want something-managers, more power; employees, better working conditions and job security. All want company stock and more say in executive decisions, but the powers that be won't sell. When an Elysium co-founder is murdered, his wife hires Lane to find the killer. Two other co-founders have died recently, possibly murdered. Lane uncovers an old case of hacking followed by a murder. He theorizes that Elysium's hacking and murders were linked and follows up with an investigation that takes him to a computer chip manufacturer, marriage and family counselor, country club, decrepit RV, tank gunnery range, fanciful Oz, popular surfing spot, Elysium competitor, and lemon grove. Along the way, a suspect initiates a love affair, he tracks a killer, gets in tight spots, endures obstructive cops, applies creative interrogation techniques, unravels a twisted narrative of who did what to whom and why, and gains a greater appreciation of mom, apple pie, and the American flag.

Elysium Fire is a smoldering tale of murderers, secret cultists, tampered memories, and unthinkable power, of bottomless corruption and overpowering idealism from the king of modern space opera. Ten thousand city-state habitats orbit the planet Yellowstone, forming a near-perfect democratic human paradise. But even utopia needs a police force. For the citizens of the Glitter Band that organization is Panoply, and the prefects are its operatives. Prefect Tom Dreyfus has a new emergency on his hands. Across the habitats and their hundred million citizens, people are dying suddenly and randomly, victims of a bizarre and unprecedented malfunction of their neural implants. And these "melters" leave no clues behind as to the cause of their deaths... As panic rises in the populace, a charismatic figure is sowing insurrection, convincing a small but growing number of habitats to break away from the Glitter Band and form their own independent colonies.
