Produktbeschreibung

"Humorous police procedural with a touch of romance and biting social criticism of small town life in a remote California mountain village." Caution: Cats yes, cozy no. Murder in a cat rescue sanctuary splinters animal lovers and animal haters in a serene California mountain village. A village patrol officer, and animal activist, intrudes herself in the investigation to clear the name of the founder, a heroine among the animal rescue community. Hotshot homicide investigator, Dex Stafford, battles a cat allergy and a dislike for a place without a Starbucks-or even streetlights. She does barking dogs. He does murder. An unlikely alliance: a murder cop from Bakersfield and a village patrol officer whose usual day is calls about snakes, fistfights, barking dogs and checking up on old people. That's the way she likes it. And she doesn't like the Bakersfield city slicker cop. The second novel in Sierra Mountain Village furthers the story in a semi-hardboiled series with more odd human relationships than explosions and car chases. Told with humor and a sharp observation of village life, the reader follows an unlikely pair of investigators in a prickly alliance through a case with a disturbing psychological twist.

Autorenporträt

Mar Preston is the author of five police procedurals set in the Santa Monica Police Department against the backdrop of a glitzy beach city bristling with celebrity, international, and homeless crime. Her books are semi-hardboiled, with more odd human relationships than explosions and car chases and The debut of a second series takes place in a tranquil California mountain town, somewhat like the village where she lives. They feature a Kern County Sheriff's detective from Bakersfield. Following Payback, The Most Dangerous Species is the second book in the series. She has distilled what she has learned writing whodunits into a series of four eBooks on "Writing Your First Mystery." Preston is a co-founder of the local SPCA, a dog park, and picks up road kill for her wildlife rehab buddies to feed the big raptors. She would like to tell you that she has a writing and blogging schedule that she adheres to rigidly, is tall and leggy and speaks four languages, but this is not true. http: //marpreston.com, YesMarPreston on Twitter
