Sinopsis

Lily Barlow has one goal in life: to get out of her hometown. But after her father's heart attack, Lily returns home from college to get the family business running, while simultaneously searching for the identity of a murder victim.  After pausing her plans and returning to sleepy Marshall, Virginia, twenty-one-year-old Lily Barlow is determined to keep this visit short and sweet. Rather than temporarily moving back home, Lily opts to rent a room from Miss Delphine Walker, a senior who grows flowers and mutters about the murderous intentions of the human heart.  Lily's return prompts Jack Turner, her best friend since kindergarten, to ask if they can be more, just as Lily begins investigating the identity of an unidentified murder victim. Fancying herself a southern-fried version of Stephanie Plum, Lily dodges Jack's romantic advances as she dives into the mystery with exuberance and good intentions.  Told in a sometimes sweet, sometimes snarky southern accent, Lily Barlow Book One: the Mystery of Jane Dough delivers romance, comedy and mystery in a joyride of contemporary fiction. Readers will laugh out loud at this fast-paced tale complete with relatable characters, quaint small-town setting and loads of southern charm.

    Miami becomes the epicenter of a deadly showdown. As terror grips the city, the black sheep of the F.B.I. takes on a formidable gang bent on eliminating all G-men. With ambitions to dominate Miami's gambling and slot-machine underworld, the gang's ruthless tactics escalate tensions.  
    "Your bet, mister. Want to buy more?" The dealer asked Steve. 
    He pushed his chair back a little. His hands were dug deep in his jacket pockets. His slate-grey eyes were absolutely without expression. But there was a hard smile at his lips. 
    "No," he said, speaking very loud, so that his voice carried above the hubbub at the dice tables. "I'm not buying any more chips. This is a clip joint. You dealt that last round of cards off the bottom of the deck!" 
    There was a sudden deadly hush in the huge room. Even the rattle of the dice ceased. 
    The dealer snarled, "Why, you little punk! You say I dealt crooked? I'll push your teeth in—" 
    He stopped, looking at the big, flabby figure of Sammy Lax, who had come up to the table. Behind Sammy Lax, the four or five gunmen-guards were converging on the table. 
    Steve Klaw stood up, keeping his hands in his pockets. 
    Sammy Lax looked at him with a hurt expression. "Now, mister, I'm sure you know better than to come here looking for trouble. If that's what you're after, we can give it to you." 
    "Trouble," said Stephen Klaw, "is exactly what I'm after."
