KIND WORDS FROM MY READERS

Superb Sedona!

Superb first mystery from the author, with an intriguing cast of characters whose multiple layers of interaction enrich and deepen the reader’s interest. But the real protagonist is Sedona itself, whose character and role in the unfolding narrative are never far from the surface. An excellent, well-written first effort in what promises to be a string of subsequent thrillers. —DL

A MUST read!

I LOVED this book! The characters are so well developed, you feel you know them or at least want to! As the story unfolds you find yourself rooting for them as individuals and as a collective. The author puts you right there in Sedona, sharing its beauty and community customs...I am so happy to hear this is just the first book of a series!! —SN
