Product Description

Product Description

Nothing ever happened in Santa Louisa, which was why Ellen McKenzie, divorce decree in one hand, new real estate license in the other, went home. Peace was what she needed, and time to figure out if forty is too late to start a new life. The town she remembered isn’t the same. A huge big box store wants to build and the town is sharply divided about its coming. Each side has drawn up battle plans. If that isn’t enough, Ellen makes an appointment to show her first house in her new real estate career and instead of a client finds the body of a man, beaten to death, in the walk-in closet. Could Hank Sawyer’s death have something to do with the new store’s coming? Hank was its most ardent supporter. Or could it be more personal? It seems half the staff at Harper’s Land Sales, where Ellen has just started work, had reason to hate Hank. Why? Ellen finds out all too quickly the real reason Hank was murdered and almost loses her own life.

Just for Fun! 7 Sep 2002
By "soconnell02" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Kathleen Delaney nails the concept of a fun, easy read! What a great book to take on a plane, read in the tub, or just enjoy from the back porch on a lazy afternoon. I loved Dying for a Change. The book quickly drew me in and I couldn't put it down until the mystery had been solved. The characters were quirky, likeable, and refreshingly real people. This is a must read for anyone who has lived through the transformation of small town America ... or for anyone that just wants to escape away for a couple hours of sheer entertainment! Great first book for the author. I loved the subtle humor and definitely look forward to more.

A fun exciting read 30 Oct 2011
By Kathleen Koppang - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
Delaney's sense of humor comes through in this exciting first novel. The book is peppered with immensely likeable characters; one would like to sit down in Ellen's comfortable living room for coffee and pizza. Her childhood friend, Dan Duinham, is an immensely attractive Chief of Police and budding romantic interest for Ellen/ Ellen's lively and lovely college-aged daughter, Sussannah, is spirited company, too. The read er feels that he or she really could drop in and have instant friends. But there are a couple of bad eggs in the bunch, too. A number of suspects prevaricate and rumble, rant and complain,while the reader tries to figure out, along with Ellen, who the killer might be. And as Ellen draws closer to discovering what the murderer is desperate to conceal, Ellen becomes a target herself. Delaney describes a showdown that will make your pulse race-and bring amusing r elief. Dying For A Change is a fun, Exciting read and I look forward to Delaney's next novel.

Not Enough Action or Suspense 10 Feb 2012
By Amber Fox - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I found the book boring, so about a quarter of the way through the book, I was tempted to stop reading. I thought, however, that the author was a newbie when it came to writing so I decided to give her another chance. The pace did pick up a little about half way through the book when another murder took place. However, I found the characters tiresome, with little to distinguish one from the other. Also, the author or agent should have proofread the book one last time for mistakes.
