Opis

A literary agent with Amish roots is buried alive. Why?, Meet... Sally Freberg, sexy 65-ish piano teacher who's been braless since Woodstock and gets away with sticking her cute nose in Kansas City Police Department business. Rosie Chen, "a knockout" by Sally's estimation, a novelist who confesses that an effective career generator is to bed agents and editors, regardless of gender. Emma Miller, a trim Debra Messing look-alike who gave up an acting career for her faith and is a cool and high-stepping Amish mother of nine. Jane Sims, fifty-something blonde voice coach of opera hopefuls and a happily outed lesbian with a serious yen for Sally. Ben Novak, anthropologist and randy octogenarian, determined to reclaim Sally after a lengthy misunderstanding but never shunning other offers on the way. Winona Stephens, author, American literature professor, and a candid critic of what has gone wrong in the book publishing business. Juan (John) Ontiveros, KCPD detective, stickler for detail who warms as much to Sally's charms as to her uncanny sense for crime-solving. K-9-trained Karl Marx, Sally's loyal German shepherd with the heart and fangs of a warrior-hero and the soul of a lover. ...and several more memorable characters First Place winner, opening chapter, Kansas Authors Club district competition _______ "Authors and Amish, music and mayhem-murder mystery Disharmony has something for everyone.
