mjay avatar reviewed on + 156 more book reviews


Hollis Carpenter is back, prowling the streets of Houston, dragging her intrepid shaggy dog Anice behind her, and wisecracking her way into trouble.
Hollis's friend Charlotte has a problem. There's a corpse in her bed and she wants rid of it. But even more serious: she won't reveal where she was at the time and so doesn't have an alibi.
Hollis hides Charlotte then searches the seedy byways of
Houston for the killer, confronting sleazy politicians, and cops
on the make...plus a powerful woman evangelist with incredible
personal magnetism.
Houston Town is the sassy, and humorous, fast-paced follow-up to Bayou City Secrets.
