About this ebook

Small Town. Big Murder.

Hi. I’m Alice. The number one secret to my success as a bodyguard? Staying under the radar. But when a public disaster blew up my career and my reputation, my perfect, solo life took a hard left turn to crazy town. And to bodies. Lots of dead bodies.

I thought my hometown of Nowhere would be an out-of-the-way refuge to wait out the media storm.

It wasn’t.

My little brother had moved into a treehouse. The town had the bright idea of attracting tourists with the world’s largest collection of big things... Nowhere now has the world’s largest pizza cutter. And lawn flamingo. And ball of yarn...

And then I stumbled over a dead body.  

All the evidence points to my brother being the bad guy. I may have been out of his life for a while—okay, five blissful years—but I know he’s no killer. Can I clear my brother before he becomes Nowhere’s next Big Fatality?

Ratings and reviews

omgosh you just have to read this story... and when you hit the last page you will be wanting to open the next book! you'll laugh .. you'll think of the who, why... and you'll find yourself turning pages and not being able to put it down... however when you do finish its a little disappointing cause you are done and you want more

I’ve had bad days, but nothing like Alice’s. Being a Wonderland fan, this Alice seems to fall down a rabbit hole too. If you enjoy screwy fun, great twists & great writing this is your book. I’m glad it’s a series so I can go on another adventure. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This was a fun cozy mystery. I loved Alice Sommerland. She was smart, witty, good at her job, a bit overly trusting, and more. There were so many quirky characters in Nowhere, good for a chuckle, support, and general entertainment to add to the story. It took a bit to figure out what happened, and it was a satisfying ending. I look forward to the next in the series. I received a copy of this story through Goddess Fish Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.

About the author

Kirsten Weiss writes laugh-out-loud, page-turning mysteries. Her heroines aren’t perfect, but they’re smart, they struggle, and they succeed. Kirsten is… also far from perfect and occasionally a red-hot mess, but she’s published over thirty books. She writes in a house high on a hill in the Colorado woods and occasionally ventures out for wine and chocolate. Or for a visit to the local pie shop. Hence, her Pie Town cozy mysteries.

Kirsten is best known for her Wits’ End, Perfectly Proper Paranormal Museum, and Tea & Tarot cozy mystery books. So if you like funny, action-packed mysteries with complicated heroines, just turn the page…
