A witch ends up in court – not as the defendant, but as the plaintiff!  (The Litigating Witch Case) *** As you may have heard, nothing sells like sex and death.  A Louisville brothel combined the two when someone dropped dead from poisoning.  And the media absolutely loved it. (The Brothel Poisoning) *** While out jogging, Sherri Papini inexplicably disappeared.  Twenty-two days later she returned home with a story so incredible it was hard to believe.  In fact, some people still don’t believe her after all these years. (The Sherri Papini Mystery) *** When groups of sinister drones began hovering over homes in America’s Midwest, the FBI, US Air Force and 16 police forces set up a task force. But the drones vanished. And some wonder if they ever existed at all.  (Attack of the Drones)
