Music & Fiction - Crime Fiction Inspired by Barry Manilow and One-Hit Wonders
I'm a big music lover, always have something playing in the background, so it's not surprising that I've found it's even more fun to write stories based on, and inspired by, music!
My recent story, "Some Kind of Friend," is based on the song of the same name by that favorite singer, Barry Manilow! It appears in the just released anthology, A KILLING AT THE COPA: CRIME FICTION INSPIRED BY THE MUSIC Read more of this blog post »

| I'm on a 1920s kick and loving the time period! I spotted this book last year at a book sale and wish now I'd gotten the other two books with it. But I found two copies so I can't wait to continue the series! Besides the gorgeous cover, it's got grea ...more | |

| Fun series! I've always enjoyed reading about the '20s and Chicago's mob, so the fictional setting in a speakeasy was a bonus! Interesting settings and characters, plus real-life events added in made it more real. A quick read. I only wish there was ...more | |

| I like this series, especially the characters, the family, and the small Irish town. This was an interesting, if odd, murder. The problem I saw clearer in this one, however, is instead of just solving the murder and getting to the solution, the clues ...more | |

| Fun, fast read! Loving the closer look into a fictional 1920s but still chock full of real-life characters and events. Happened on this book and didn't realize it was book two (again!), so I'll be getting book one (Murder Knocks Twice) to read as wel ...more | |

| Wow. This is different, so different. Besides the amazing writing, it's a tale of medieval faith and religious fears come to life in horrific images of modern horror and monsters, and a supernatural fight for good vs. evil. In the end, its's trail th ...more | |

| This was a fun quick read. I've read many of these, so an enemies to lovers to enemies to.... plus zombies, the usual crazed survivors and a post-apoc compound fits just right. Nice relationship between the girl and her father, even if she is a brat ...more | |

| A quick, interesting read. Enjoy the family and residents of this little Irish village. And while I "kind of" guessed the suspect, I did not guess the reason - and the clever way a murderer could get in and out of a locked room. A fun series and I'll ...more | |

| I decided to go back to this series and of course I read this before the one that was next in order, but that's okay. Fun characters and family in this series. This book had an unusual story line with an odd local singer, mysterious gold, and the dra ...more | |
