I knew it was coming, but I didn’t know if it would be negative, positive, or mixed. Imagine my delight at getting a stellar review, calling ‘Murder at the Paisley Parrot’ a page turner. Just the shot in the arm a writer needs now and then. And listen for the audiobook arriving any day now, narrated by the fabulous Fred Wolinsky.

From Maryann at The Novel Approach:

There are many profound statements about AIDS in the storyline which reflect the fear of that era. “AIDS was unlike any other disease. It was not an opponent that could be defeated in the ring. It was not cancer. It was not lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. AIDS was the end.”

Mark McNease did a terrific job writing Marshall James’s story. There’s an abundance of historical detail which again shows the fine line between fact and fiction. I found Marshall and McElroy to be two solid and absolutely amazing characters with an undeniable chemistry. The murder mystery was intriguing and suspenseful and made this a page-turner for me.
