Produktbeschreibung

Join Jane for another quirky, humorous misadventure as she and Sheriff Rick lock horns in investigating another murder in See Jane Dance!, the third book of the cozy West River mysteries. It's New Year's Day in the small town of Little Missouri, South Dakota, and Jane's year is already off to an eventful start. She begins the day with the discovery of a body, setting off a murder investigation that will test the limits of her courage. Soon she's juggling not only murder, but also the addition of four squirmy kindergarteners to her lively country school classroom. Thanks to weekly square dance lessons paid for by her mother, the town switchboard operator, and the school janitor in an effort to kick-start her romantic life, she's also fending off eligible bachelors right and left. As the snow piles up and the town gossip hits a feverish pitch, Jane and the sheriff must race against time to find a killer who's dancing too close for comfort.¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ "Like a snowflake in a blizzard, See Jane Dance!, which is set in the midst of winter cold and chaos, finds a way to be both precious and unique. With wry humor, Jolene Stratton Philo offers readers the small South Dakota town of Little Missouri, populated by oddballs and lovables, who, when murder comes calling, find themselves dealing with a lot more than just their usual winter doldrums. I found myself smiling often at Philo's take on small town politics and social mores and laughing out loud at some of the outrageous shenanigans of the citizens of Little Missouri. This is a delightful read, perfect for those who like their mysteries on the soft-boiled side and who maybe wish that Agatha Christie had chosen to set at least one of her stories against the backdrop of the High Plains." William Kent Krueger New York Times bestselling author of This Tender Land, Ordinary Grace, and the Cork O'Connor mysteries.

Autorenporträt

Before I became an author, I taught elementary school for 25 years. 7 of those years were spent in northwestern South Dakota. Our first child was born while we lived there, and our experiences with him resulted in 6 books for the special needs community. My fiction series, West River Mysteries, draws heavily on my years as an Iowan who landed in cowboy country, who taught country school, and who was adopted and cared for by the locals in the tiny town where we lived.
