by Janice Hamrick (Author)
The first bell of the new school year hasn't even rung, and Texas high school teacher Jocelyn Shore is already at the scene of a murder. Friend and fellow teacher Fred Argus has been found dead on campus, and it isn't long before the annoying, albeit attractive, Austin police detective Colin Gallagher uncovers evidence that Fred might have been selling drugs to students. Shocked by her loss as well as the insinuation that Fred was a dealer who got what he deserved, Jocelyn starts asking the kinds of questions guaranteed to set fellow teachers, administrators, and parents on edge.
With the school serving as the setting for a big-time director's latest film, her investigation could hardly have come at a worse time. Jocelyn, however, finds clearing her friend's name far more important than the needs of a pesky movie crew and doesn't care who knows it. But it's only when she's attacked while on set that she realizes someone is determined to make sure the secrets hidden by Fred's death remain hidden no matter what the cost. Humor, romance, and murder abound in Janice Hamrick's follow-up to her Minotaur Books/Mystery Writers of America First Crime Novel Award--winning debut, Death on Tour, and make Death Makes the Cut a charming addition to this outstanding new series.Back Jacket
Murder is never by the book for Texas high school teacher and amateur sleuth Jocelyn Shore in Janice Hamrick's "winning sequel to her cozy debut" (Publishers Weekly).
"Death takes the Cut takes the series up a notch."--Bestsellers World
The first bell of the new school year hasn't even rung and Jocelyn Shore is already at the scene of a murder. Her friend and colleague Fred Argus has been found dead--and the evidence suggests he was selling drugs to his students. Shocked by the insinuation, Jocelyn takes it upon herself to lead an on-campus investigation, asking questions guaranteed to set fellow teachers, administrators, and parents on edge.
"Pleasant entertainment and a challenging mystery."--Kirkus Reviews
Jocelyn's case couldn't have come at a worse time: The school happens to be serving as the back-drop for a blockbuster film. But not even one of Hollywood's most notable directors can stop Jocelyn from clearing Fred's name. The truth becomes stranger than fiction, however, when Jocelyn is attacked on set. Soon she finds herself in the path of a killer determined to put a stop to her sleuthing--and do whatever it takes to keep the secrets surrounding Fred's death on the cutting-room floor....
"[Agatha] Christie's characters were never this smart-alecky."--Richmond Times-Dispatch
