Product Description
Synopsis
A Wickedly Funny and Gritty Murder Mystery Filled with Suspense; Lillian Byrd is a small-time reporter with a flair for making big-time mistakes - so her investigation into the disappearances of women around the Detroit area might not be the best idea. But when one of the victims turns up dead and Lillian recognises the curiously mutilated corpse, she discovers she is in too deep to get out. After simultaneously blowing the case for the police and revealing herself to the killers, she is completely on her own. But can she catch the murderers before they catch up with her?

Was given this book and was pleasantly suprised, not predictable and kept me wanting to read it and find out who was behind everything? I even found myself mulling over who the 'baddies' were even when not reading it!
It is also sexy, fun and made me laugh oud loud at time - read it and you'll agree with me.

Holy Hell scores big for suspense and characterization
24 April 2002
Format:Paperback
Be sure you have some time because you won't want to put this original murder mystery down. This beautifully written Lillian Bird novel gathers momentum as it goes. Join Lillian in her pursuit for justice as she challenges Bucky with an X-Acto knife, meets Minerva for dinner at the Great Enchilada Place by the Bridge, and encounters danger from other quirky characters. Elizabeth Sims maintains suspense well with surprises for even the veteran mystery reader. Will Minerva survive for another book? Is Lou just a big puppy dog or a vicious stalker? What crime will Lillian Byrd solve next?

Supreme work of fiction
18 July 2002
Format:Paperback
I'd never heard of Elizabeth Simms before finding "Holy Hell" reviewed along side my own book. The story sounded so interesting that I had to read it! Simms is a master at character development and weaves a plot with just enough twists and turns to keep the reader enthralled without getting overly complicated. Lillian Byrd is a fascinating character, and I hope we haven't seen the last of her. As long as Simms keeps writing, I'll keep reading.

holy heaven
29 Jun 2002
Format:Paperback
i finished reading HOLY HELL a few minutes ago... i'm not sure what time i started reading it, but i've only had it since late last night! don't start reading it unless you have the time to finish it, because--trust me--you WON'T want to put it down! HOLY HELL is a gripping novel with enough twists and tension (of a few kinds) to make your head swim with delight! the characters are well-developed and even the ones who are only in the book briefly will make you fall in love with them... definitely an impressive first novel--can't wait to see lillian take on more crimes in the future! kudos to elizabeth sims!
