Om A Honky Tonk Night and Murder
I'm tone deaf, I have no sense of rhythm, and yet I'm allowed to sing karaoke, occasionally, while solving murders in Po'thole aka Pothole to anyone north of the Florida Georgia state line. Locals call it Po Ho.
My childhood friend and local politician is found murdered. In her living room where her family couch still has plastic covers on it as an homage to her late mother. She died back in the 60's.
I'm Parker Bell and I thought crazy only existed in large cities. I was wrong. Crazy oozed out of every pore of my old hometown. Why I thought I and the Lady Gatorettes, diehard University of Florida football fans who are hormonally challenged every day the sun comes up, could solve a murder or two is beyond me.
Did the Mafia come to town or was it just plain bad luck a politician or two is murdered or threatened? We need to figure it out quick before we meet our untimely demise.
PRAISE FOR A HONKY TONK NIGHT
A must read! Caution: read where you can LOL and it won't disturb others.
Parker and the Lady Gatorettes are at it again. Parker left {"escaped"} her small southern home town and has a successful security business in Atlanta, Ga. in addition to being a successful crime writer. She likes it in big city Atlanta and is not interested in going back to her old small southern hometown, but when a friend is found dead there, she is drawn back. Of course, even though she vows not to, she gets involved with the investigation. Per usual, right off the bat things get crazy. The Lady Gatorettes get involved and things really get interesting.
I loved the first book in this series and this one matches it. I laughed so much, my dog started laughing along with me {wagging her tail and prancing around}. Parker's senior {hard of hearing} next door neighbors are hilarious. There is one scene {I'm sure you'll know which one when you read it} that cracked me up...I was laughing so hard I dropped my kindle which hit my glass knocking it over, splashing pepsi all over the couch.. Didn't spill any on my laptop key board and cause it to fry/die though {you'll "get it" when you read the book}. - Beverly Smoak
Just Plain Fun to Read!
Parker Bell is a fantastic character. You can't help liking her or laughing along with her escapades. The next door neighbors are a hoot as are the rest of the supporting cast of characters. A plot you won't easily untwist and a setting that is as real as the people. - Skye-Writer, author
