Praise for Larissa Reinharts Cherry Tucker Mysteries
DEATH IN PERSPECTIVE (# )
Death in Perspective is one fasten-your-seatbelt, pedal-to-the-metal mystery, and Cherry Tucker is the perfect sleuth to have behind the wheel. Smart, feisty, as tough as she is tender, Cherrys got justice in her crosshairs, and Death in Perspective is an accomplished addition to this winning series.

Loved it! I feel I might have dated Cherry Tucker once, shes that real; shes also funny, tough, and brilliant. Now shes even involved in theatremaybe thats where we met.
Phillip DePoy,
Edgar Award Winning Author
Reinhart succeeds in mixing laughter with the serious topic of cyber-bully through blogs and texts, all the while developing a chemistry between Cherry and Luke that absolutely sizzles.
Kings River Life Magazin e
Cherry is a quirky spitfire that lights the match that sets her little town on fire. With a laugh here and a laugh there, I enjoyed this whodunit and Im eager to see what happens next in the adventures of Cherry Tucker.

HIJACK IN ABSTRACT (#3)
The fast-paced plot careens through small-town politics and deadly rivalries, with zany side trips through art-world shenanigans and romantic hijinx. Like front-porch lemonade, Reinharts cast of characters offer a perfect balance of tart and sweet.

Bestselling Author of A Bad Day for Sorry
Cherry is backtart-tongued and full of sass. With her paint-stained fingers in every pie, shes in for a truckload of trouble.
J.J. Murphy,
Author of the Algonquin Round Table Mysteries
Bless her heart. Artist Cherry Tucker just cant help chasing after justice, even when it lands her up to her eyeballs in Russian gangsters, sexy exes, and treacherous truckers. A rambunctious mystery as Southern as chess pie and every bit as delectable.
Jane Sevier,
Author of the Psychic Socialite 1930s Memphis Mysteries
