My next Merry Wrath book comes out Sept. 20. I'm working on some Bombay, Merry Wrath and Aloha Lagoon novellas to put up before the end of the year. Thanks for asking! (less)

Not particularly sexy, but I could dress it up with something like the Illuminati took my keys because they know that once I get into my minivan...there's no stopping me!(less)

Goodreads Mystery Week 5-Sentence Mystery Challenge

I love a challenge - here goes:

Seven tourists wearing t-shirts that said King Family Reunion crowded around the strange little diorama of the room they were standing in, in the middle of the parlor in the Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast. A tiny clown doll with a hatchet sticking out of his head lay on a tiny floor that looked just like the floor beneath their feet.

A voice came over the loudspeaker, Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Leslie Langtry  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“A teenage boy with a Mohawk sat across from me, sneering. I’d seen that look before. Why was it a problem to knit in public?
“My grandma knits.”
I ignored him.
“So what are you making, Grandma?” Mohawk’s voice was ugly.
I arched my eyebrow. “A cashmere cock ring. Your grandma ever knit one of those?”
The kid’s eyes grew wide, and he suddenly became very interested in a four-year-old issue of Teen Vogue.”
Leslie Langtry, 'Scuse Me While I Kill This Guy

“Oh my God. I just got dumped by a red headed mortician in a funeral home named Crummy's, after pretending to be a circus freak at a visitation I had just crashed. I was pretty sure there'd be no bouncing back from this. -Dakota Bombay”
Leslie Langtry, Guns Will Keep Us Together

“The elevator turned out to be slower than the damned train at Disney World. And it played “The Girl from Ipanema” in Muzak. I looked at Paris and saw that he was mouthing the lyrics. That was it. I’d have to plan an intervention for him once we got home.”
