The End
If you enjoyed this 5th book in the Dead Red Mystery series as much as I enjoyed writing it, I hope that you'll consider leaving a favorable review on Amazon
There are 4 more in the Dead Red Mystery Series, starting with:
#1-A Dead Red Cadillac
Twice-divorced NY model Lalla Bains now runs her dad’s crop-dusting business in Modesto, California, where she’s hoping to dodge the inevitable fortieth birthday party. But when her trophy red vintage Caddy is found tail fins up in a nearby lake, the police ask why a widowed piano teacher, who couldn’t possibly see beyond the hood ornament, was found strapped in the driver’s seat.
Reeling from an interrogation with local homicide, Lalla is determined to extricate herself as a suspect in this strange murder case. Unfortunately, drug-running pilots, a cross-dressing convict, a crazy Chihuahua, and the dead woman’s hunky nephew throw enough roadblocks to keep Lalla neck-deep in an investigation that links her family to a twenty-year-old murder only she can solve.

#2-A Dead Red Heart:
What would you do if the love of your life lost their chance for a heart transplant because the donor organ went to a convicted felon? Grieve and let go? Or wait for your chance at justice and revenge?
When a homeless Vet litters her beloved red Cadillac with poetry scrawled on paper snowflakes, Lalla decides to confront him. But that doesn't mean she wants the man to drop dead at her feet—with a pair of blue handled scissors sticking out of his chest. With nothing but the man's last words for the police to go on, Lalla decides that someone needs to be on the side of this misunderstood vet, and that person will be the exasperating, pushy, tenacious, Ms. Lalla Bains. But digging into the man's past will only unravel a more potent question: What would you do if the love of your life lost their chance for a heart transplant because the donor organ went to a convicted felon?

#3- A Dead Red Oleander
Full time ag-pilot and part time crime sleuth, Lalla Bains, is juggling end of season work with the arrival quirky Texas relatives and a greenhorn pilot.
Satisfied that the pilot is legit and that her relatives can resist putting her dad's pet goat on the dinner menu, Lalla gets back to business.
But things go south in a hurry when the pilot drops dead and his tearful widow is accused of poisoning her husband. Now Lalla's got to sort out why a U.S. Marshal and a shadowy Las Vegas hit man are suddenly so interested in this pilot and his wife.

#4-A DEAD RED ALIBI:
A successful, but reclusive young artist with a secret life that will turn deadly.
A wannabe lawman and his dotty gun-toting granddad.
An abandoned mine pit, a curious dad and the local police chief found with him.
When Lalla and her dad take a trip to Arizona to inspect her new property, Dad disappears. But when Lalla enlists the help of a local tracker she's relieved to find him unharmed, in the bottom of a mine pit and he's got company–a local police chief, and it looks like he's been murdered. Then too, a young woman artist living nearby has also been murdered. What're the chances that these two murders are going to be related? Well, if you're Lalla Bains, you don't guess, you start looking for the killer!

#5-A DEAD RED MIRACLE:
Lalla and cousin Pearlie buy into a retiring P.I's business, only to discover that their business partner is a cheat, a liar and blackmailer. But when they go to confront him, his house explodes with him in it. Nearly broke, they will have to grapple for enough business to stay afloat while dodging his greedy ex-wives and solve the dirty bastard's murder before the killer comes after them as well.

About the Author
I sort of fell into the job of running a crop-dusting business when my dad decided he’d rather go on a cruise than take another season of lazy pilots, missing flaggers, testy farmers and horrific hours. After two years at the helm, I handed him back the keys and fled to a city without any of the above. And no, I was never a crop-duster.
I write about a tall, blond and beautiful ex-model turned crop-duster who, to quote Lalla Bains, says: “I’ve been married so many times they oughta revoke my license.” I wanted to give readers a peek at the not so-perfect -life of a beautiful blond. Lalla Bains is no Danielle Steele character, she’s not afraid of chipping her manicure. Scratch that, the girl doesn’t have time for a manicure what with herding a bunch of recalcitrant pilots and juggling work orders just to keep her father’s flagging business alive.
