Time-out for Murder
No doubt about it, it's a killer of a game. And a major league PR disaster for the NFL when Tomcats' quarterback Tim Duffy is found dead in the training room whirlpool. But it's a family matter for Ginger Barnes, mother and sometime-detective. She's been summoned to Norfolkl, Virginia, to help her pregnant counsin Michelle, whose husband is the Tomcats' starting quarterback--and potential prime suspect. Ginger is meddling in testosterone territory, far from home on Philadelphia's Main Line, as she tackles the case. Is it a crazy fan? Or an insider with a motive for murder...
Too often, real life doesn't turn out how Donna Huston Murray wishes it would, so she writes amateur sleuth whodunits that do. Her original Ginger Barnes Cozy Mystery series features a woman much like herself, a DIY headmaster's wife with a troubling interest in crime. The eighth, FOR BETTER OR WORSE, became a Finalist in the National Indie Excellence Awards for mysteries.
The first two of Donna's new female sleuth, mystery crime thrillers were awarded Honorable Mention in genre fiction from Writer's Digest. The third, STRANGER DANGER, was a Finalist in the National Indie Excellence Awards for mysteries.
When she isn't plotting mayhem, Donna assumes she can fix anything until proven wrong, calls trash-picking recycling, and, although she should know better by now, got a new puppy. Check her socials and you'll understand.
Donna and husband, Hench, live in Gwynedd, PA, USA.
