The first Dragonetti Mystery
by Margaret Moore
Who butchered the fabulously wealthy Ursula? On the night socialite Ursula von Bachmann was murdered in her fabulous villa in Tuscany, her three adult children and Piero and Marta, the couple who ran the house for her, were all present and all had the motive to want her dead. Jacopo Dragonetti, investigating magistrate and State Prosecutor, in charge of the case, also finds out that Guido della Rocca, Ursula’s gigolo boyfriend, is also in the frame. ‘Feels like a grown up, intense and grisly version of Cluedo, you suspect everyone and trust no one…a gripping story.’ Liz Loves Books

January 2014Dead in Boca
by Miriam Auerbach
Boca Raton. South Florida’s wealthy enclave of sand, surf, martinis, and murder . . . From high society “Boca Babe” to Harley-riding private eye, Harriet Horowitz has established her rep as a kick-ass P.I. with an insider’s connection to both the high life and the low life of Florida’s Palm Beach coast. Like “Junior” Castellano, a big-time land developer who hires Harriet to find the silver-haired gigolo who broke Mama Castellano’s heart, Harriet is practical when it comes to solving problems. Simple enough, until the Boca police find Junior bulldozed at one of his construction sites. Was Junior killed by his mother’s con man? Or by a bitter ex-wife or spurned ex-girlfriend? Maybe by his estranged sons? And what about the bartender at Hog Heaven, who was about to lose her home in a trailer park because of Junior’s latest land development deal? Harriet will do whatever it takes to protect others. Even if Junior Castellano’s enemy list is longer than the reservations at a Boca cocktail bar, and the scheme he was hatching was big enough to destroy the whole city. A hurricane is heading toward Boca. It should be named Harriet.
