Read to Death: Countdown

readtodeath

I am so excited that everyone will soon be able to read the third installment of the Read ’Em and Eat series, Read to Death. Sassy is worried to the point of frazzle when it looks like Bridgy might be the suspect in a murder investigation, so Sassy’s run-ins with the always handsome but sometimes officious Lieutenant Frank Anthony intensify.

Everybody’s favorite residents of Fort Myers Beach are back: Aunt Ophie, Skully, Chef Extraordinaire Miguel Guerra, and the many book club members and cafe patrons that wander in and out of the Read ’Em and Eat Cafe and Bookstore. The Teen Book Club has upped their game and may drive Sassy to distraction but Fort Myers Beach News reporter Cady Stanton is surprisingly adept at communicating with teenagers. Who knew?

And as circumstances get murkier for Bridgy, her mother, Emelia, flies down from Brooklyn to help and brings a surprise guest. I have to say that the interaction between Emelia and her sister, Aunt Ophie, is sometimes cringe worthy but always interesting.

Read to Death will grace bookshelves everywhere on July 5, 2016 but is available for pre-order now at all the usual places. Click through to my Where to Buy page for direct links and a search engine to find the Independent Book Store near you.

I can’t wait to hear what you think about Read to Death.

This time they are nominated for Best Short Story in the delightful tale of how they managed to find a bit of trouble on their very first day in Fort Myers Beach. You can click through to my short story page to read “A Killing at the Beausoleil“.

Read to Death, July 2016

ReadtoDeathc

I am delighted to introduce the cover art of Read to Death,  the third book in the Read ‘Em and Eat cozy mystery series. By now you’ve met a lot of the folks who frequent the Read ‘Em and Eat bookstore/cafe in Fort Myers Beach, Florida. Be prepared to meet a few more, and a couple of imports from Brooklyn as well.

When the Cool Reads/Warm Climate book club trip to the Edison and Ford Winter Estates ends in murder, Sassy and Bridgy’s moms feel compelled to leave Brooklyn and fly to Florida to keep their daughters safe.

All I can say is that these are two interesting women. I cannot wait for you to have a chance to meet the moms!
