WHAT READERS SAID ABOUT STEPHEN'S OTHER MISS FORTUNE MYSTERIES Love anything to do with Fortune and friends! I was laughing out loud at some points. I am going to read some more of your books! -JL

What readers have said about Stephen John's other Miss Fortune books: Of the many other authors who contribute to this series Stephen John is one of my favorites. He continues with the main characters and weaves a series of intrigue and chaos into his story.

I have now read a few of these stories by this author and this one I enjoyed most of all. The regular characters are back, joining a couple of newbies who prove to be interesting as well. Once again, the crime solving aspect of the story proves intriguing. It left me fulfilled and more than ready to read the next chapter in this particular writer's Miss Fortune setting. Great stuff.

I absolutely love this series! Fortune has lost a dear friend which broke my heart, but she has also made some new friends as well. As always there is comedy, action, and a dash of love tossed in.

Definitely a must read!

While staying true to Ms. DeLeon's canon, Mr. Mayfield carves out a very nice niche for himself. I've come to really enjoy his stories featuring these characters and this one is a doozy.

A well-structured mystery, and probably the most literary of the Kindle Worlds Miss Fortune Mysteries I've read so far. I loved this book as much as I loved the original books by Janet DeLeon. I wish he would write more.

This book read as if it had been written by Jana Deleon. I thoroughly enjoyed the new characters and the usual characters were as much fun as always. -RS I loved this book! Between the colorful characters and the witty dialogue, I was sucked into the story by page 3. The mystery had suspense, twists, turns and many nail-biting moments. This is a fun read! -JM

I loved this book as much as MS Jana DeLeons' original series. The main characters were so well written and I read this book immediately following Fortune Funhouse it was as if this was book #20. Loved it. A must read! I hope more are written in this series. -KC

I just recently discovered this author. The title of the book is what grabbed me. This book drew me into the story right from the start. I found myself totally enjoying it and giggling too. While this book is part of a series, it can definitely be a standalone book. I highly recommend it. -SB

The author perfectly set the tone and locale, I could hear and feel the bayou all the way through it. While I haven't read any of the author's books prior to this, I loved the characters, especially Brennan. I had a very good friend in high school like him, fearless and fabulous. An excellent read. -DW

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.
