It’s always a surprise when my giveaways end up going to the same state. Mary Kay Andrews’ The Weekenders is heading to Texas. Jane R. from Driftwood, TX won one copy, and Karen R. from Katy, TX won the other.
Arizona is the setting for this week’s crime novels. CB McKenzie’s Bad Country was the winner of the Tony Hillerman Prize. Rodeo Grace Garnet is retired from the rodeo circuit, just scraping by as a bounty hunter, warrant server, and divorce snoop. So, he reluctantly says yes when he’s hired to solve the murder of an Indian teenager. It’s a noir novel that captures the rough-and-tumble Southwest.
Becky Masterman’s thriller, Fear the Darkness, is about ex-FBI agent Brigid Quinn, trying to settle down in a new life with a husband, friends, and a nice, quiet job as a private investigator. But, the death of her sister-in-law brings her troubled niece into her quiet life. And, her investigation of the death of a local couple’s son makes her wonder if there’s anyone she can trust, “or if the devil has simply moved closer to home”.
