Set in the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, J. J. Cook’s thrilling new mystery series features Fire Chief Stella Griffin, who solves crime with the help of her predecessor, who just happens to be a ghost…
NO MATCH FOR MURDER
After knocking the lights out of her boyfriend when she catches him cheating on her, Chicago fire fighter Stella Griffin hops on her Harley and heads for Sweet Pepper, Tennessee, where she ends up becoming the small town’s fire chief. When her dear friend Tory Lambert dies after her gingerbread-style house is set ablaze, Stella suspects arson and foul play.
As Stella investigates, she gets help from a most unlikely source—the ghost of Eric Gamlyn, Sweet Pepper’s old fire chief. And if that isn’t enough to rattle her, attractive police officer John Trump seems to have taken an interest in her. But Stella’s got to stay focused if she hopes to smoke out a killer before her own life is extinguished.
When you write a book you part with a piece of yourself. Your inspiration, creativity, heart. Your fear and love. If someone recognises that book as special, no wonder you are blown away by the moment. I love the cover art! (Clare O'Beara 7:31am May 27, 2013)
I'm anxious to read your book, so that I can be touched as much as all of the other people who have come to see you with their tattered books!! It's a rare talent to be able to write in such a way as to reach inside someone's soul with your words!! I've done a lot of reading, and so far, only 2 books come to mind that have stayed in my heart, and taken a piece of my soul along with it. You must be doing something right to be able to write 60 books and have such a following!! Even the cover of your book is an extra-special piece of art!! (Peggy Roberson 9:16am May 27, 2013)
