A Justified Murder of Crows - Paperback

When Rhonda Ramos Benson moves with her family into their new home in the quiet town of Patton, Colorado, she's rattled to find that they've bought a place brimming with ghouls-of both the living and the non-living variety. But that's just the beginning of the chaos.

Mix in a cocktail of psychopaths, unsolved homicides, pickleball, Grandma, Bigfoot, forbidden cheese, hidden rooms, the cow truck, Elvis's Colt .45, the creepy guy from the Dollar Store, mouthy kids with attitudes who've mastered all the four-letter words, and a straggly dude who looks like a Brad Pitt knockoff straight out of Temu, and you start to get the picture.

But Patton, Colorado isn't all fun and games. It's more than plus-sized beauty queens and delicious donuts, because something dark is lurking beneath the surface. Something old and angry. Something evil that will not rest until it is fed.

A Justified Murder of Crows is a hilarious, quick-paced thrill ride boldly frosted with macabre underpinnings. Grab your tire iron and your pickleball racket, and hang on tight.

I'll meet you at La Casa de los Frijoles-just mind the car-gobbling potholes.
