Murder Faux Paws


Book Description

Firebird Award Winner! Dead men tell no tales, but in the riveting new Nick and Nora Mystery, they sure leave a lot of clues . . . “Take my word for it—this tricky whodunit will grab you with its quirky (but believable!) characters, inventive plot, and whopping payoff.” —New York Times bestselling author Laura Childs When a local PI’s untimely death is ruled a suicide by the police, budding sleuth Nora Charles has no intention of letting sleeping dogs lie—or sleeping cats, for that matter. Certain it was a case of foul play, Nora rouses her trusty sidekick Nick and launches an investigation of her own. Then a second PI is murdered, and Nora knows the two men were on to something—and that she’s on to something too. Following the enigmatic clues left by her late predecessors, Nora soon uncovers a plot that involves a local politician, missing campaign funds, and what could be a bogus real estate deal. But when hints of treason surface, what started as small-time thievery soon balloons into a matter of national security. With the uncanny Nick sniffing out—and spelling out—leads, Nora follows a trail that will take her to the heart of a shadowy conspiracy, and into a trap set by a conniving culprit that will have her wishing she had Nick’s nine lives . . . Praise for the Nick and Nora Mysteries: “Hiss H for Homicide packs all the trimmings into its classic cozy structure in smooth, silky fashion. William Powell and Myrna Loy played the original Nick and Nora Charles in the classic Thin Man films, and LoTempio does them great justice in this masterpiece of the genre that leaves no stone, or cat treat, unturned.” —Jon Land, Providence Journal “If you like hard-boiled old crime fiction, you will find parts here to scratch your itch. If you are looking for a cozy mystery with elements of romance (whose team will you be on?), get comfy and prepare to be intrigued.” —Laura’s Interests “Ms. LoTempio has crafted a superior mystery for this series return.” —Escape With Dollycas “With its wonderful characters, perfectly paced plot, and perplexing mystery, Hiss H for Homicide is a must-read for cozy mystery lovers.” —Christy’s Cozy Corners “Excellently plotted and executed—five paws and a tail up for this tale.” —Open Book Society




Murder on a Small Island


Book Description

The second rambunctious book in this series of erotic thrillers finds Kate Hickok back in Seattle where one of the candidates for Mayor is in favor of a law that would take most of the fun and money away from the strippers who work in her clubs. Kate calls on Angus, to catch him in a 'Honey Trap' that will bring his misogamist actions and hypocrisy into the light of day, but things go four kinds of sideways. Seattle Homicide detectives Bill Brownwen and Tina Lo are frustrated and disgusted by the grisly corpses someone is leaving around their city and Angus tries to give them some help without telling them too much about his extra-legal machinations or admitting he has been out smarted, out gunned and out manne. Gritty realism, dialogue and sex scenes along with real Puget Sound locations and complex three dimensional characters of both sexes make this book very hard to put down.
