Praise for Earlene Fowlers BENNI HARPER MYSTERIES

SEVEN SISTERS

Fowlers regular characters all show significant growth; the mystery itself is satisfying both as a puzzle... and as a story about secrets buried in a familys past.

Booklist


As in all of Earlenes previous books, in addition to the mystery there are numerous other threads cleverly interwoven in the plot... enjoyable... well-written.

San Luis Obispo (CA) Magazine


Benni is feisty, caring, loving, and one heck of a part-time sleuth... a not-to-be-missed view into the worlds of crime and the elite.

Rendezvous


MARINERS COMPASS

Winner of the Agatha Award for Best Novel


Captivating... [an] excellent addition to a notable series.

Publishers Weekly (starred review)


Fowlers plots can be as outrageous as Ellery Queens, her turf is Ross Macdonalds, and her tone is heir to Grafton and Paretsky... [She is] an up-and-comer worth watching.

Nashville Scene


Fowlers best work to date... Mariners Compass points the way to quality reading for the heart, mind, and soul.

Ventura County (CA) Star


DOVE IN THE WINDOW

Nominated for an Agatha Award for Best Novel


Excellent... While the characters are perhaps the most vivid feature, setting nearly edges them out. Best of all is Bennis sharp, sassy voice.

Booknews


Fowler writes beautifully about the picturesque Central Coast, ranching, and local cuisine.

Booklist


GOOSE IN THE POND

Nominated for an Agatha Award for Best Novel


Engaging.

Booklist


Brilliantly crafted romantic suspense... waiting to be devoured by the reader.

The Mystery Zone


A fast, fun read that jumps into the action right from the get-go.

San Luis Obispo (CA) Telegram-Tribune


KANSAS TROUBLES

Nominated for an Agatha Award for Best Novel


Mayhem, murder, chaos, and romance... well-paced mystery ... fun reading.

The Derby (KS) Daily Reporter


Fowlers story about a sassy ex-cowgirl and quilter who loves to solve crimes... is a lot of fun to read. Fowler has a deft touch.

The Wichita Eagle


IRISH CHAIN


A terrific whodunit! The dialogue is intelligent and witty, the characters intensely human, and the tantalizing puzzle keeps the pages turning.

Jean Hager author of Bride and Doom


A blue-ribbon cozy... This well-textured sequel to Fools Puzzle ... intricately blends social history and modern mystery.

Publishers Weekly


FOOLS PUZZLE

Nominated for an Agatha Award for Best First Mystery


Characters come to full three-dimensional life, and her plot is satisfyingly complex.

The Jackson (MS) Clarion-Ledger


Breezy, humorous dialogue of the first order.

Chicago Sun-Times


I loved Fools Puzzle .... [Earlene Fowler] made me laugh out loud on one page and brought tears to my eyes the next.... I cant wait to read more.
