Excerpt:


Nothing is as one thinks it at first glance. A dead hooker isn’t always simply a dead hooker. Dr. Henrietta Manville is out to prove there is a serial killer stalking these victims.


Henry peered up and met Tanner’s gaze and all sound disappeared, no more singing or laughter or piano notes. The brightly lit room faded, and there was only the two of them as they were drawn to one another by some unseen force, like a magnet until his lips covered hers and Henry had her first grown-up kiss.


It only lasted a moment, but when Tanner pulled back and stood straighter the light and noise and piano all returned in an unwanted roar, as if they were dropped into some kind of hole with all these other people.


Henry knew Tanner felt the same way. She was sure of it as she touched her lips in awe.


“Don’t worry, Henry, your make up is still perfect. I’m sorry. I should have waited to do that,” he apologized.


Staring shyly into his shirt, she said, “I really should make myself more available to the reverend. Lure him into trying something.”


Tanner’s hand tightened a little on her elbow, but then he agreed. “You’re right. I admit I can’t completely monopolize you or this whole night will be for naught. I’ll stay close. Just play with that chain around your neck if you need me, and I’ll be at your side before you know.”


Making his way to the bar, Tanner watched covertly as she made her way to the table the preacher occupied.

What makes your featured book a must-read?


Doctor Henrietta Manville was a practicing physician when an unthinkable event turned her life upside-down. Unable to face the medical field again she turned to healing animals and working occasionally as a coroner. Working with the dead was much easier than facing the living. Finding a serial killer needed a whole different mind-set. Working with Texas Ranger, a male chauvinist, was even trickier. Females had their place and most men in 1870 would say it wasn’t outside the house. Especially once a woman married.
