Geared for the Grave
<p>288 pages Advance Reader's Copy trade paperback format of what will be a mass market paperback in the regular edition. First in a new series by the author of _Pearls and Poison_. jc100914</p><p><b>Synopsis</b> Mackinac Island is a peaceful summer resort town where everyone coasts through the streets on bicycles. But after someone sends a prominent local on her final ride it's up to one resourceful visitor to get things running again. Hoping to shift her chances of a promotion in her favor Evie Bloomfield heads to Mackinac Island to assist her boss's father. Rudy Randolph has broken his leg and operating his bike shop Rudy's Rides is too much to handle by himself. But Evie's good turn only leads to more trouble. After Evie's arrival wealthy resident Bunny Harrington dies in what looks like a freak bike accident. Upon closer inspection Bunny's brakes were tampered with and now the prime suspect in her murder is also Bunny's number one enemy: Rudy. So if Evie hopes to stay on her boss's good side she'll need to steer Rudy clear of jail. Now she must quickly solve this mystery so she can put the brakes on the real killer's plan.</p><p><b>Reviews </b>"A charming setting a determined heroine and a love interest worthy of hunk status. Geared for the Grave speeds along and never puts on the brakes!"Kylie Logan author of The Legend of Sleepy Harlow and Death by Devil's Breath<br /><br />Praise for Duffy Brown's Consignment Shop Mysteries: "A rip-roaring hijinks-filled cozy mystery.likely to appeal to fans of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series." The Poisoned Martini "Southern sass and eccentric characters populate this fun fast-paced mystery which has plenty of twists and turns. Sexy attorney ramps up the sexual tension and leaves Reagan and readers breathless." </p><p>Book Reviews "Brown deftly spins the tale of Reagan's many misadventures while sleuthing fills her story with Southern eccentrics and offers up a magnolia-laced munificence of Savannah color." Richmond Times-Dispatch " Killer in Crinolines is a fast-paced cozy with lots of twists and turns. Brown has a knack for writing dialogue and readers will find themselves so engrossed in the story it's hard to concentrate on anything else." Debbie's Book Bag</p> Berkley Prime Crime paperback
