Greetings from Camden, Maine, where I live and write.
DEEP FRIED FATE is now available! Public Safety Officer Jane Roberts and her crew encounter death and love, out-of-control controlled substances and law enforcement corruption, with room to spare for laughter. Have fun with the ending!
DON'T TOUCH MY COCKTAIL! is the second Jane Roberts Mystery. You can count on lies, greed, revenge gone haywire, caviar and gold, a New Year's Eve pig roast, and lots of imbibing. The Booklife reviewer enjoyed the "skillful twists, both comic and suspenseful" and "fresh, funny inventions like Gluella's Lobster Brides! business."
LOBSTERS WITHOUT BORDERS is the first book in the series. We meet Jane Roberts, who is launching her life as a Public Safety Officer on St. Frewin's Island, somewhere off the coast of Maine. Jane is emphatic, wired, and ready to bite people's heads off, but she plows her way forward with glee to crack her case. Bushnell On Books in the Morning Sentinel wrote "Chen has a vivid imagination and a knack for storytelling...a fun tale of suspense.” A Goodreads reviewer summed it up best: "Hilarious chaos."
Right now, I'm working on book #4. Other than that, my lips are sealed.
