What's Hot

"So," Detective Rowcliff asked, "did you kill her?"

With that line, author Jane K. Cleland begins the second of her antique mystery series, DEADLY APPRAISAL. Mystery, suspense, romance, old furniture. How could I resist? Plus, I met Jane's heroine, Josie Prescot, at Deadly Ink's famous hotel bar this summer. She's a peach.

Oh, yeah. And she's a redhead.

Jane's first book, CONSIGNED TO DEATH, has been nominated for more awards than Marlon Brando. She's also President of the Mystery Writers of America's New York Chapter.
