LH_Author — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 04:06:25 +0000

How do two past tragic events come together in a log cabin in Flagstaff, Arizona?

To find out, check out the Sisters in Crime, Desert Sleuths Chapter anthology, How NOT to Survive a Vacation. This latest anthology contains my paranormal mystery short story, “Tragedy in the Pines,” as well as many other great stories from talented Arizona mystery writers!

From Hawaii to Bar Harbor, from Alaskan cruise-ships to desert ghost towns, these 18 original short stories by members of the Desert Sleuths Chapter of Sisters in Crime range from the humorous to the noir, making this anthology the perfect traveler’s guide to all things criminal and mysterious. Sophie Littlefield, author of Edgar-nominated A Bad Day for Sorry calls the anthology “Smart, fresh and fast-paced with twist endings worthy of master storytellers.”
