Quick Cases for Clever Minds: Cache, Code & Confessions Thirteen cyber-age mysteries from the neon-lit booths of a small-town diner. Dottie Mack isn't your average sleuth. She's a waitress with a sharp eye, a warmer heart, and a knack for finding the truth in the places people least expect it-especially when the clues are encrypted, digitized, or deleted. In this second volume of Quick Cases for Clever Minds, Dottie navigates a labyrinth of high-tech crimes and low-key heartbreaks in a world where memory is stored in the cloud, identities glitch, and even ghosts can send emails. From a haunted smart speaker to a rogue AI guarding a dying developer's last message, each bite-sized case blends modern intrigue with classic detective flair. A murder staged with greenscreen footage A drone drop gone wrong A chatbot pretending to be the dead And the final shutdown of an app that promised digital immortality These are mysteries for the age of algorithms-but the heart of each case is timeless. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Black Mirror, and Only Murders in the Building, this collection delivers cozy noir, clever clues, and human insight in equal measure. Thirteen stories. One waitress. Zero firewalls she won't breach.
