LET'S GET COZY: HICKORY SMOKED HOMICIDE - A PREVIEW AND GIVEAWAY

GIVEAWAY ENDED
HICKORY SMOKED HOMICIDE
A MEMPHIS BBQ MYSTERY
BY RILEY ADAMS

ABOUT THE BOOK:
BBQ-joint owner Lulu Taylor knows pretty much everyone in Memphis who loves ribs. But one person she'd rather not know is Tristan Pembroke, a snooty pageant coach with a mean streak. When she finds Tristan's dead body stuffed in a closet at a party, the police are suspicious- especially since Lulu's developed a taste for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Caught in a situation stickier than molasses, Lulu must clear her name, or risk getting fried...

OTHER BOOKS IN THE MEMPHIS BARBEQUE SERIES: 
July 6, 2010
Delicious and Suspicious
Publishers Weekly: “A sassy first in a new series from Adams.” Book one of the Memphis Barbeque Series. When a food scout from a cable cooking channel is murdered, it’s only natural for restaurant owner Lulu Taylor to take it personally. After all, her barbeque restaurant served the scout’s last meal. But danger lurks as Lulu investigates the crime. Will she clear the restaurant’s name, or is she next to be skewered?


June 7, 2011
Finger Lickin’ Dead

When an anonymous food critic blasts several local restaurants—including Aunt Pat’s—Lulu Taylor and her customers are biting mad, especially when they learn that Eppie Currian is the pen name of their friend Evelyn’s cheating boyfriend. When “Eppie” gets his own fatal review, the list of suspects is longer than the list of specials at the best BBQ place in Memphis. 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Elizabeth writes the Memphis Barbeque series for Penguin/Berkley (as Riley Adams), the Southern Quilting mysteries (2012) for Penguin/NAL, and the Myrtle Clover series for Midnight Ink. She blogs daily at Mystery Writing is Murder, which was named by Writer’s Digest as one of the 101 Best Websites for Writers for 2010 and 2011.

Her most recent releases are Finger Lickin’ Dead, the second of the Memphis Barbeque series (June 2011 for Penguin),  Progressive Dinner Deadly a Myrtle Clover Mystery (August 2011),  Hickory Smoked Homicide  (a November 2011 release), and A Dyeing Shame a Myrtle Clover mystery (December 2011).

Elizabeth is active in the online writing community.  She shares writing-related links on Twitter as @elizabethscraig and posts on craft and the publishing industry on her blog, Mystery Writing is Murder. She and Mike Fleming of Hiveword also manage the Writer’s Knowledge Base–a free search engine to help writers find resources.

As the mother of two, Elizabeth writes on the run as she juggles volunteering, referees play dates, drives carpools, and is dragged along as a hostage/chaperone on field trips.
