- An Un-Cozy Un-Culinary Josie Tucker Mystery
223,95 kr. Snarky food critic Josie Tucker usually can soothe any problem with food or drink. Missed bus? Mango-orange smoothie. Mild doldrums? A piece of peppered beef jerky. But lately, she can't stand the smell of a watery cup of broth. Being at the mercy of an indignant and vengeful stomach is no cup of tea. So what happens when she gets roped into being the last-minute bridesmaid at a society wedding? The bride's mother tries to kill her with kindness. Too bad for the bride, Josie won't be the only victim. "'The Bride Wore Dead' is a tasty, and thoroughly enjoyable, mystery." --Mike Billington, author "The Bride Wore Dead has everything a reader expects from modern crime fiction - sharp writing, an unpredictable plot, quirky characters. But it also holds surprises for the reader. As one of the new breed of indie authors, Kaplan has broken many of the rules of crime fiction - with panache - and created something refreshingly different. Her characterisation has depth." --Virginia King, former prize-winning publisher, author of "The First Lie" (BRAG Medallion Honoree)

- A Hot & Nerdy Romantic Comedy
153,95 kr. Ella never leaves work early. She loves her copy of Strunk & White. She buttons her shirt up to the top. She buys beige furniture. She pays her bills on time and always says hello to her neighbors. If she were a superhero, her alter-ego would be SuperPoliteGirl. She doesn't have any vices-as long as swearing in Italian doesn't count. If she were in a romance novel, her fiancé wouldn't fit the mold of the love interest-not by any stretch of the imagination. His shoulders aren't particularly broad, his five o'clock shadow comes in patchy during the night, and his voice is a moderate tenor, not a shiver-inducing baritone. But those minor issues are the elements of fiction. No one needs that in day-to-day life.Right?

143,95 kr. When a charismatic college professor receives a series of threatening letters, Josie Tucker grudgingly goes back to school-undercover. All the grumpy food blogger wants is to be left in peace with her dog, her man, and her laptop, but now she's stuck in a co-ed dorm with a goofy gang of freshmen. Can Josie, along with her student posse, find the culprit before the greasy cafeteria food kills her?"Dead Man on Campus was another home run from EM Kaplan." -Mike Prelee, author"Always love Josie Tucker! Already have the next one lined up on my Kindle. EM Kaplan is a staple of my reading diet." -Amazon reviewer"...Great laughs in this engaging story of death, deceit, betrayal, and love. Campus life is everything it promises: socially inept professors, horrible food, and cramped living conditions. The new and hilarious characters make this story pop from the pages. Ms. Kaplan does such a fantastic job of scattering clues in all directions that it is far from readily apparent who the villain(s) are. She also dangles a romantic hook at the beginning that had me desperately flipping pages to find out how it would be resolved. Overall, a very funny, delightful mystery. Kudos!" -Virgina Gray, author
