Featured Today at Books and Bevies: In the Crosshairs: the Body on Leffis Key

 Featured Today at Books and Bevies is my new cozy mystery/romantic suspense, which releases May 27. : In the Crosshairs: the Body on Leffis Key


https://www.kerryfryarfreeman.com/booksandbevies

Palmer Lind, recovering from the sudden death of her husband, embarks on a bird-watching trek to the Gulf Coast of Florida. One hot day on Leffis Key she comes upon—not the life bird she was hoping for—but a floating corpse. The handsome beach bum who appears on the scene at the same time seems to have even more secrets than the dead man.

His story begins to unravel as the pair search for answers to a growing pile of dead bodies. Spies, radical environmentalists, and wealthy businessmen circle around each other in a complex dance. Which one is lying? What do a seemingly random group of individuals have in common, other than being targeted by a crossbow?

Kerry has asked me to pair my book with an appropriate beverage, and since the book is set in sunny Florida, I naturally chose a planter’s punch.

Here’s a tease:

Drink?” He held up a tall glass filled with pink liquid. “My own version of planter’s punch.” He dropped a paper umbrella in it and handed it to her.

She took a sip. “Very tasty. Not too sweet.” She put the glass down. “I can’t stay long.”

“I know. Just let me tee up some more tidbits. Then we’ll talk. I wanted to tell you about the death threats.”

Interviewed by ShoutOut LA!

 


Interviewed by ShoutoutLA—a part of the Voyage group of magazines dedicated to encouraging people to spend more of their money with mom-and-pops, small businesses, independent artists and creatives. We think one of the most powerful ways to do that is by putting small business owners and creatives at the center of discussions designed to spark conversation within the community.

Here's a link to my interview with them, on balancing work and life and on my writing: https://shoutoutla.com/meet-m-s-spencer-author-of-mystery-romantic-suspense/
