Today joining #BerkleyMystery
in celebrating author
Lorna Barrett
and her paperback release of
A JUST CLAUSE
Book 11 in the Booktown Mysteries
Just when things are getting back to normal in Booktown, Tricia and Angelica have their lives turned upside down by a shocking visitor from their past in this latest entry in Lorna Barrett’s New York Times bestselling series.
Tricia Miles, mystery bookstore owner and amateur sleuth, is in for a surprise when her ne’er-do-well father, John, comes to town—and promptly becomes a prime suspect in the murder of a woman with her own scandalous past. Even Tricia’s faith in the old man is shaken when the Stoneham police break the news that her father is a known con man who has done jail time.
But what about bestselling thriller author Steven Richardson? Is it a coincidence that he arrived for a book signing just before the crime or that the victim was found with a signed copy of his latest bestseller?
From merlot to murder, Tricia is determined to clear the family name before another body shows up and ruins Stoneham’s first—and highly anticipated—wine and jazz festival.

MY REVIEW
Fans
of the Booktown Mysteries will fall in love with this series all over again!
With,
A JUST CLAUSE, author Lorna Barrett once again takes readers back to Booktown
for more mystery, mayhem, and some serious dysfunctional family drama.
I’ve
been following this series since the very first book, MURDER IS BINDING (My
sister was a fan and asked if I’d like to try it. Well, of course I did! What’s
not to love about a town that’s got bookstores everywhere). It’s been fun
watching the original cast of characters grow throughout the series, and just
as enjoyable to meet and learn more about the characters who have been added
throughout the series.
Ms.
Barrett certainly knows what it takes to keep her readers engaged. It very was
hard to put A JUST CLAUSE down for any length of time. Every aspect of the
story was wonderful. From the murder, to the investigation of looking for
whodunit and why, to the dynamics of the eclectic characters, it was a fast-paced
book that that left me a bit breathless. Add to that a satisfying conclusion,
and some tasty recipes, you’ve got a cozy mystery you won’t soon forget.
Available for pre-order
Release Date: June 5!
GOOD LUCK!
