Lies by Linda Lovely
A 1938 cocktail of lies, love, and murder. After steeling her nerves to leave the swindler she married, Catherine Reedy hopes for a brighter future for her two-year-old son. That dream turns into a nightmare when the corrupt chief of police fishes her husband's corpse out of the Mississippi and vows she'll hang for his murder. Someone wants Cat dead sooner-before the annual Street Fair leaves town. The handsome cop who offers to help Cat seems honorable. But who can she trust? Everyone she knows has secrets. And the Street Fair's merry lights can't touch the dark hatred that's spawned a clever killer, one who won't stop until a deadly vendetta is complete.
A journalism major in college, Linda Lovely has always made her living as a writer, primarily in public relations and advertising fields. Now, she's focusing on her first love-fiction. Linda writes romantic suspense and mysteries that offer a main course of thrills coupled with a generous side of romance. Linda's new suspense novel, LIES: SECRETS CAN KILL, is set in 1938 in her hometown, Keokuk, Iowa. This novel proves great stories dwell in every era. In addition to LIES, her published fiction includes novels in two series. Her award-winning MARLEY CLARK MYSTERIES feature a kick-ass, 52-year-old heroine, while her SMART WOMEN, DUMB LUCK romantic thrillers follow three smart-and very different-women brought together by dumb luck. The author's strong heroines, love of Carolina and Iowa settings, and her sense of humor help make her books standouts. Her manuscripts have earned final spots in 15 contests, including RWA Golden Heart and Daphne du Maurier contests. DEAR KILLER, the first Marley novel, was a finalist in the RWA Golden Quill published novel competition. DEAD LINE made the finals of the National Readers' Choice Awards for Romantic Suspense.
