Product Description

Product Description

This compiles all three A Hint of Murder stories in one book and includes a bonus mystery.

A Hint of Murder: The Writer
Alicia Fairfield didn’t plan on being famous. Now a bestselling author with millions of fans, Alicia also has the attention of a killer. Someone has been recreating the murders from her books and the suspects are piling up; her mentally ill son, a disgruntled associate, and possibly even her loyal literary agent. The pressure of public recognition along with the guilt over these senseless killings could be enough to drive Alicia over the edge. Can she hold it together long enough to uncover a killer?
Story length 9,000 words

A Hint of Murder: The Doctor
Russell Morgan had it all; good looks, the perfect woman and a rewarding career as a well-respected physician. When the doctor’s patients start turning up dead, his world comes crashing down. Second in the "A Hint of Murder" series, this short story brings Detective John Lewis back in action to track down the killer.
Story length: 12,000 words

A Hint of Murder: The Bouncer
Bobby Crane was tired of being a bouncer and a glorified errand boy. He longed to be a professional singer and was just about to get his big break. Then Allen Schaffer is found murdered and Bobby’s car was spotted at the victim’s home. Third in the A Hint of Murder series, this story has detective John Lewis returning with a new partner to uncover a murderer.
Story length: 10,400 words

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth it!, 9 Jan 2012
This review is from: A Hint of Murder: The Series (Kindle Edition)
There is a skill in writing a good short story. Every word has to count, and there is only a short time with which to engage the reader and make the characters come to life. Lia Fairchild is one writer that does this with charm and wit. Her characters come alive quickly, and the plot-lines race along with a pace that is just right. These three short stories are all stand alone, yet each one flows into each other - I defy anyone to read just one; you'll want to read the other two in the same sitting! This anthology also includes a teaser from Ms Fairchild's novel, In Search of Lucy, a romantic drama. I will be interested to see if she is as proficient with a full-length novel as she is with her wonderful short stories! She has also included a story from the anthology With Love - a beautifully written tale with a truly lovely twist at the end (see if you spot what's coming - I didn't!). Finally, there are six excerpts of novels from other authors to whet your appetite - a lovely touch from Ms Fairchild to promote other independent authors. All in all, a delight to read. I shall definitely be purchasing more Lia Fairchild books in future!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Reason to Kill, 7 Dec 2011
This review is from: A Hint of Murder: The Series (Kindle Edition)
A Hint of Murder is a collection of three mysteries written by Lia Fairchild. I enjoyed pitting my wits to the author in trying to figure out the murderers. Ahh, but she is sneakie. I have read other books by the Ms. Fairchild and I like her style of writing.Being an author myself I was tickled with the the plot of 'The Writer'. I like murder mysteries and wasn't disappointed with either of the stories in the anthology. They were well paced, not too gory, and very entertaining. Especially the strange the reasons people choose to kill someone. Loved them all.

3.0 out of 5 stars An easy read., 3 Feb 2012
This review is from: A Hint of Murder: The Series (Kindle Edition)
This anthology of 3 short stories is an easy read in that it's easy to pick it up, read one of the stories and then put it down again.

But each story is full of twists and clues that have you trying to guess which of the cast could be the killer each time. The characters are full of secrets and intrigue, and the poor detectives dealing with all three cases have their work cut out to solve each case.

Well worth a read if you like crime thrillers, and a good introduction to Lia Fairchild's writing.
