Another Wonderful Review for Deadly Currents!

I'm flying high with the news that the January 24, 2011 issue of Booklist Online includes a great review for Deadly Currents, the first book in my RM Outdoor Adventures mystery series that will be released March 8, 2011. Barbara Bibel, the reviewer, has this to say:


"Groundwater (A Real Basket Case, 2007) launches a new, action-packed series featuring white-water guide Mandy Tanner. Mandy, a river ranger at her uncle’s white-water rafting business, pulls a man from the river as part of her first day on the job. The man dies, but he did not drown. The victim, Tom King, was a real-estate developer with lots of nasty rivals. He also cheated on his wife and refused to support his son, an avid kayaker. He managed to make many environmentalists very unhappy, too. When Mandy’s uncle dies suddenly, she suspects something more than a heart attack and wonders whether the two deaths are related. Her independent investigation leads her through some very rough water. Readers who enjoy fast-moving stories and wilderness environments will keep turning the pages of this promising series debut."

To read the review at its source, go HERE. This review, added to those from Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews, means that Deadly Currents has been mentioned in three of the big four review publications now. The fourth is Library Journal. Dare I hope? ;-)

Thanks, Laura! I'd love to keep writing books featuring Mandy Tanner, a much younger and more adventurous woman than myself. :)
