Four ambitious women risk losing it all when they play to win… but the husband dies trying.  It’s all fun and dominoes at the vintage game shop until Amy’s best friend wants her husband gone and then he’s found dead. Has an innocent game of dominoes turned into premeditated murder? Scrambled evidence and sketchy alibis compel Amy to uncover the truth before the four friends land in jail for murder. Who killed the husband? Amy risks everything to hunt down the truth, unravel the facts and the fibbery, and survive a misadventure on the back roads of Arkansas. She finds the courage to face her doubts and discovers the true meaning of friendship. All while hunting a killer on the run.

Word on the Street

“The main characters in this series may be your new best friends. Good mystery, with enough twists and turns to keep the smart reader guessing and characters you want to know better. Witty, with an edge. The author paints a vivid picture without every other word being a bog of adjectives. Imagine! Less sugary than the ‘typical’ cozy, and the story moves along, which I prefer. Think Evanovitch with a southern drawl. Follow this author, because you’ll want to read the next book as soon as it comes out.“

“This was one of the best books I read in a while! I absolutely loved the eclectic mix of characters and the love and bond between them. Having a a couple friends of my own I would go to the ends of the earth for, I actually laughed out loud at some of the predicaments Amy, Genna, Rian and Zelda got into. But the love they share is unbreakable- car wrecks, ruined Jimmy Choos, and murder be damned. I can’t wait to read more!“

“What a great story! Four friends work to solve a mystery while bringing you along for the journey. What a wild journey it is too! I waited to read this book when I knew I wouldn’t have to put it down for long.“

“As far as cozy mysteries go, this is one of the best ones I have read, and I’ve quite a few now from various authors. Quite an achievement for the first book from a new author. I especially enjoyed the banter between the group of ladies the book is based around, and the author introduced unexpected events which ended up testing the friendships within the group at times. Overall, a very enjoyable read and it’s going to be very interesting to see where their next adventures take them.“
