Detective Jane Perry is on the case. In Promissory Payback she is investigating the gruesome death of a woman with not many friends and a whole lot of enemies. "Karma is a bitch" is very true in this case.
ANONYMOUS: One of Jane's first AA meetings leads her to an encounter with a woman in need of her detection skills...and a secret she never expected to uncover.
YOU CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER: Forced by her boss to speak at a high school career day, Jane meets a troubled boy and finds that his story is only the beginning of a much more revealing tale.
YOU'RE ONLY AS SICK AS YOUR SECRETS: An early-morning homicide call introduces Jane to a mystery as layered as it is unsuspected.
THINGS AREN'T ALWAYS WHAT THEY SEEM: Jane finds herself sharing a 2:00 am conversation at a downtown bar with an old acquaintance. Will the bloody night that proceeded this moment complicate Jane's intentions?
My Thoughts
I really enjoyed these stories. Don't let the small number of pages fool you. These are well written short mysteries that still pack a punch with sharp dialogue, a gritty leading lady and plots that play out a break neck speed. They are the perfect quick reads to get your mystery fix. There are even more Jane Dewey novels/novelettes to enjoy and the author will be starting a new series next year with a whole new star. Keep your eye on this author!!

These mystery/thrillers sounds riveting! I love the premise of each one and will be picking one or two up here and there if I don't win yours. I love Detective Jane Perry's name, too...she sounds sensible, practical and totally capable and I look forward to reading about her and her adventures!
