Releasing in May: Trial by Twelve, A Murder in the Mountains Book #2

Soo…if you get the newsletter or follow my Facebook author page, you’ve already seen the cover for Trial by Twelve, the soon-to-release second mystery in the Murder in the Mountains series. It’s actually over in my sidebar on the right———>>>.

You can now add this book on Goodreads here if you enjoyed Miranda Warning! Planning on a May, 2015 release for this one.

Here’s a larger picture of the cover and the blurb:

TrialByTwelve_FC_2

Tess Spencer loves her low-key job at the Crystal Mountain Spa, which allows her plenty of down-time with her one-year old daughter and lawyer husband, Thomas. But when a pool installation turns up eight skeletons in the spa’s back yard, Tess becomes entangled in a sleuthing job destined to go awry.

As the investigation gets underway, someone dumps a fresh body near the excavated burial site, confirming unspeakable fears. A serial killer has returned to Buckneck, West Virginia…a skilled hunter with a unique taste in prey.

When Tess agrees to help the cunning Detective Tucker gather clues from the inside, she discovers the posh spa hides more than dead bodies. Even as she sifts through layers of deceit, Tess realizes too late that the killer’s sights have zeroed in on her.

Unpredictable psychological mystery replete with memorable characters, Trial by Twelve is Book Two in A Murder in the Mountains series.

Very excited about this!!!

I caution everyone against eating most wild berries that look like this, but I know right where to find these in my yard and love the taste. They’re #teaberries. I wish I knew more about foraging, since my #appalachian ancestors would’ve been great at it.
