? UNDER THE LAMPLIGHT-

Hobbies turn into danger in Death in the Ozarks: Written by Erik S. Meyers, the mystery novel follows Sally Witherspoon, an accountant-turned-biker-bar-owner in her 50s, who loves puzzles and is really good at solving them. Usually, she gets her fix by helping her fellow neighbors with little tasks like finding a lost pet or a necklace, but suddenly the stakes are higher than ever.

Sally the sleuth is determined: When her close friend and business partner Bill is found dead behind her bar, she will stop at nothing to figure out who did it. What ensues is no shortage of twists and turns and a refreshing mystery plot.

She can’t help but be nosy, and that’s why she’s a force to be reckoned with. There are a lot, and we mean a lot, of murders packed into this one, but the small-town conspiracy is a genre we can always get behind. Sally, being a likable main character for once, makes it all the easier to get into the book. We’d argue that the text could be the start of a riveting series and look forward to what else Meyers has up his sleeve.

You can get the book on Amazon.
