Produktbeschreibung

Honorable Mention in genre fiction, Writer's Digest

"...a real gem of a novel...This book should be picked up and savored!" Writer's Digest Judge

Lauren Beck's friends, phone, home, credit, and credibility are gone, severed with surgical precision by an enemy intent on framing her for murder. Is it one of the insureds she was hired to investigate? The fellow employee she upstaged? Does the daughter of her landlady and dear friend, Corinne Wilder, hate her even more than she thought? An ex-cop who survived cancer knows how to fight for her life, but can she rely on her wits to outsmart this cunning criminal?

"Strong and feisty, Lauren also displays a tender side that is sweetly sentimental." Publisher's Weekly

"This book could easily sit on the shelf with traditionally published novels and beat them hands down. I was very impressed with this book." Judge #18, Writer's Digest

"Brave and determined, humorous despite it all...an admirable, down-to-earth heroine." Kirkus Review

"Murray's delightful Pennsylvania mystery pits tough but compassionate Lauren Beck, insurance investigator and ex-cop, against unknown adversaries following the death from cancer of her friend Corinne...Murray's characterization and resourcefulness create a consistent persona that supports the central narrative role...convincing, well-phrased detail sustains atmosphere and keeps the plotting vigorous." The BookLife Prize in Fiction

"The fascinating story line contains more than one villain and enough twists and turns to keep you guessing until its dazzling conclusion. An exemplary and intriguing sleuth novel...impossible to put down." 5* Susan Sewell for Readers' Favorite

Autorenporträt

Donna Huston Murray's cozy mystery series features a woman much like herself, a DIY headmaster's wife with a troubling interest in crime. Both novels in her new mystery/crime series won Honorable Mention in genre fiction from Writer's Digest. Her eighth cozy FOR BETTER OR WORSE was a Finalist for The National Indie Excellence Award in Mystery and was also shortlisted for the Chanticleer International Mystery & Mayhem Book Award. FINAL ARRANGEMENTS, set at Philadelphia's world famous flower show, achieved #1 on the Kindle-store list for Mysteries and Female Sleuths.

At home, Donna assumes she can fix anything until proven wrong, calls trash-picking recycling, and although she should probably know better by now, adores Irish setters.

Donna and husband, Hench, live in the greater Philadelphia, PA, area.
