A Novel to Die For

Deanna Devlin, Desert Detective Cozy Mystery, Book 2

By: Bridget Bowman

Narrated by: Rachel Carr

"A page-turning cozy mystery with lovable characters, a quirky small town, an ice cream-loving sleuth, and a super cute dog!"

Newspaper reporter Deanna Devlin finally gets a promotion from writing puff pieces to covering more serious stories. Unfortunately, her next assignment hits a little too close to home when one of her friends is accused of murdering a local book store owner.

Deanna knows her friend couldn't have committed the crime, but the only way to prove it to the police is to find the real killer herself. There are no shortage of suspects in the case, including a tarot-card loving mistress, a jaded wife, a sleazy land developer, and a sassy mother-in-law.

With the clock ticking, Deanna scrambles to uncover the truth before it's too late.
