Book 1--The 1st Jolene Jackson Mystery
REVISED EDITION--July 19, 2012

Kickapoo, Texas, is the last place Jolene Jackson wants to be, but with her 72-year-old mother’s boyfriend murdered and Mother Dearest locked up because of it, she’s got little choice but to head south and deal with it.

Bullets are flying, chicken’s frying and there’s a lunatic on the loose in the mesquites with a shotgun who’s Hot Enough to Kill.
An excerpt is included in The University of Texas Press' title, Lone Star Sleuths--An Anthology of Texas Crime Fiction

REVIEWS

"Don't Mess with Texas! You'll laugh your way from Kickapoo to Redwater Falls and back." -- Linda Huntley Wills, Redbook

"This is a wild ride with thrills, chills and laughs galore. Highly Recommended." -- Editor, I *Love* a Mystery

"...makes for fast, fun summer reading." -- Nancy Cook-Senn, Shawnee Escort
"Anyone who enjoys the works of Janet Evanovich or Joan Hess is going to love Ms. Boyd." -- Toby Bromberg, Romantic Times

"...a terrific mystery, sharply drawn, cleverly plotted, dynamically presented, and pure sleuthing entertainment from first page to last." -- Wisconsin Bookwatch

"The mystery genre has witnessed an abundance of female sleuths, but none quite like Jolene Jackson and her mother, Lucille." -- Argus Observer

5 Stars and 5+ Laughs! Has to be film adapted. Would make a delightful audiobook. " ...a hoot and a half of rollicking good mystery! The best dang novel I've read all year!" -- Leann Arndt, The Midwest Book Review

"Carl Hiaasen meets Texasville! ...a must read for your Sherlock funny bone." -- Judi Clark, Mostly Fiction

"... comedic characters you'll just love. ...a humor you can't resist. I can't remember the last time that I read a book as light and refreshing as this." -- Pamela Stone, My Shelf

"This first entry of an apparent series will leave readers loudly laughing at the antics of Jolene and her mother. Hot Enough to Kill is a tongue-in-cheek look at relationships and amatuer sleuthing. Still, the mystery has a character of its own that adds to a wonderful plot. If this tale is any example, Paula Boyd has a long running series that will provide much pleasure to fans." -- Harriet Klausner

A quick, fun read for cozy lovers

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 1 settembre 2014

Acquisto verificato

Kickapoo, Texas is the site of this cozy mystery. Jolene Jackson a newspaper reporter who returns to Kickapoo from Colorado in the middle of summer when her mother's boyfriend, the mayor of Kickapoo, is murdered. She’s there to support her mother.
Their relationship is rather testy due to the face that her mother is going through what might be called a mid-life resurgence after the death of Jolene's father. When Jolene asks her mother questions about the days leading up to the murder she is evasive. There is a good deal of witty banter back and forth. Then to add to the mix, the Sheriff investigating the crime turns out to be Jolene’s old high school boyfriend.
There's one spot that is my favorite because it nails the sense of place so well. It's at the end of Chapter 8 when a deputy guarding Jolene and her mother for their safety returns from a fast food place with some lunch and says about the weather, "One hunnerd seventeen and hot enough to kill." Jolene’s comment is, "What happened to the old "fry an egg on the sidewalk" thing?" The deputy grinned. "Kickapoo doesn't have any sidewalks."
The characters are interesting, the dialogue snappy, the plot & style of writing typical of a cozy. The author was creative in the way she describes situations and people, all of which made me like the book

Mit sehr viel Wortwitz. Charaktere mit Ecken und Kanten, die mit ihren Fehlern sehr liebenswürdig sind. Unterhaltsam,humorvoll. Ich konnte das Buch kaum weglegen.

A Fun-Filled Mystery

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 20 settembre 2014

This is the first book I have read by this author, and I have to say I loved it. Yes, I imagine the characters are over- the-top, stereotypical clichés, but I have to admit to finding them hysterical. I didn't tire of the heroines' barbs and one-liners against her mother, her upbringing, or the small town in Texas she was raised in, which was a theme throughout the book.

Having an older protagonist was a welcome change, although she did read younger than she was portrayed. Other than that, the characters were all well developed and interesting, or highly amusing. The mother-daughter team was a delight, and the exploration of their relationship was a pleasant undercurrent to the mystery plot line. I felt the cozy mystery plot was well laid out, not overly complicated but certainly convoluted enough to keep you guessing, providing plenty of twists and turns to have you frantically trying to work out in advance exactly whodunnit.

There were a few proofing errors, but the fast pace of the book meant you skipped over them, and none were so bad that you had to stop and actually think what was meant to be there. This was great fun, and a book that I truly looked forward to returning to when I snuggled into bed at night.
