Tangled Truths

Dealing with dragons is hard. Dealing with a teenage daughter is even harder. My new mission involves both. Weird things are happening in Northern Idaho, and my boss is sending me to investigate. Unfortunately, my daughter and ex-husband are vacationing in the town that's at the center of the trouble. Coincidence? Or is someone targeting them to get at me? I'm a wanted woman right now. Not only by the criminal werewolves, orcs, and trolls that I'm often hired to kill. But by the Dragon Justice Court. An organization full of arrogant, powerful dragons is exactly as horrible as it sounds. They're the last beings you'd want after your family. If I can't get to the bottom of the mystery and convince the dragons I'm not their enemy, I stand to lose far more than my own life.

Author's Note: When asked by readers what book I've written is my favorite, I always say I can't pick a fave. That would be like picking a favorite child. But I will say there's something very special about TANGLED TRUTHS. The mysteries were so clear in my head, and the words raced onto the page. I love the interesting police procedural elements in these stories, and there's even more humor. And for the first time, I threaded a larger mystery across all short stories. My "Grandma with a Glock" mystery series is perfect for readers who like clever crime fiction with a strong female protagonist, a dash of humor, and a lot of heart. Bonus: each short story comes with a Lottie-approved recipe. Enjoy!

A message to you, from me. to those of you hurting, without a voice to keep. a collection of pretty things, and spoken word poetry

Eulogised and ostracised, James Butler Hickok was alternately labelled courageous, affable, and self-confident; cowardly, cold-blooded, and drunken; a fine specimen of manhood; an overdressed dandy with perfumed hair; an unequaled marksman; and a poor shot. Born in Illinois in 1837, he was shot dead in Deadwood only 39 years later. By then both famous and infamous, he was widely known as Wild Bill.
