Harris “FLAMINGO
FATALE is the Southern cozy at its best.” – Lane Wright,
revewingtheevidence.com “As down-home and appealing as fried green
tomatoes, grits, and sweet tea. Heroine Wanda Nell Culpepper is a steel
magnolia to cherish.” – Carolyn Hart About the Author: Miranda James is the pseudonym of Dean James, a
seventh-generation Mississippian recently returned home after over thirty years
in Texas. A mystery fan since the age of ten, he wrote his first novel at the
ripe old age of twelve. The only copy of The Mystery of the Willow
Key vanished years ago, but since it was highly derivative of the
Nancy Drew and Trixie Belden mystery series, that’s probably a good thing. Currently a librarian, Dean has published articles on topics
in library science, the history of science/medicine, and mystery fiction. His
first book, with fellow librarian Jean Swanson, was By a Woman’s
Hand and won an Agatha Award. Dean and Jean collaborated on Killer
Books and The Dick Francis Companion. In all he has
co-authored or co-edited six works of mystery reference and one short story
anthology. He has published more than eighteen novels, writing under
his own name, Jimmie Ruth Evans, and as Honor Hartman. He’s best known as
Miranda James, for his New York Times
bestselling Cat in the Stacks series, which features a librarian, Charlie
Harris and his charming, partner-in-crime solving cat, Diesel. The books
include Murder Past Due, Classified as Murder, File M for Murder, Out of Circulation, The
Silence of the Library, Arsenic and
Old Books, No Cats Allowed, Twelve Angry Librarians and the upcoming
Claws for Concern. Dean lives with two young cats, thousands of books, and
thinks frequently about killing people – but only in the pages of fiction. See www.catinthestacks.com
