This is the first Fortune book I've read that wasn't Janice Deleon written. I'm surprised it was so good. You can tell the difference but still enjoyable reading.

Autorenporträt

About the Author

Steve is a retired business executive and freelance sports journalist who now spends his days chasing fictional criminals and real guitar strings. He writes cozy mysteries with a Miss Fortune twist, inspired by the delightfully chaotic world of Jana DeLeonwhere the suspects are slippery, the sidekicks are snarky, and the body count is strictly literary.

Before turning to mystery and mayhem, Steve interviewed thirty of the world's top poker players for Phil Hellmuth's book Deal Me In. He's also co-authored two Dane Maddock thrillers with David Wood (Devil's Face and Gray Ghost) and teamed up with Jesse Jacobson on Rainhorse, a novel that gallops between grit and grace.

When he's not writing, Steve performs with his two-piece acoustic band, Latitude 47, in and around the Seattle areaincluding senior homes, where the crowd knows every lyric and occasionally requests a plot twist. His guitar has been known to solve more story problems than his outline software, and his groupies (mostly retired librarians and one very enthusiastic bingo caller) are fiercely loyal.

Steve has been married for 49 yearsa record even his fictional detectives would envyand enjoys time with his two children and two grandchildren, who keep him young and occasionally ask him to turn the amp down.

He's currently working on his first Western novel, White Bone Prairie, where the horses are fast, the justice is frontier-style, and the moral compass spins like a poker chip in a hurricane.
