National bestselling northern California author Cindy Sample returns with her soccer
mom protagonist in Dying
for a Dude, the fourth Laurel McKay Mystery. This outing finds Laurel
tackling a decades old murder which may have involved one of her ancestors. As
she struggles to clear her family name, a more contemporary murder investigation
pits her boyfriend, Detective Tom Hunter against her ex-husband. What’s a working
mom to do?
The story offers mystery, romance, danger and humor in perfect
proportions. Laurel’s family provides many of the laughs, as her perfectionist
mother and independent grandmother lock horns over a proposed move. Laughs come
from realistic human foibles which only serve to endear the characters. Readers
will enjoy the interplay between Laurel and her friends, including continuing
characters Liz and Stan.
