Praise for Lowcountry Bombshell“Is there anything more enticing than curling up with a thrilling whodunit that keeps you guessing until the very end? Susan Boyer delivers big time with a witty mystery that is fun, radiant, and impossible to put down. I love this book!” -- Darynda Jones, New York Times Bestselling Author“Lowcountry Bombshell is that rare combination of suspense, humor, seduction, and mayhem, an absolute must-read not only for mystery enthusiasts but for anyone who loves a fast-paced, well-written story!” --Cassandra King, Author of The Same Sweet Girls“Susan M. Boyer gets it. And by ‘it,’ I mean ‘the southern voice.’ And by that I do not mean she throws ‘Y’all’ into every other line of her dialogue. I mean she understands deep down how Southern people talk and can replicate the cadence and music of that speech on the page as delicately as a master chef adding a last pinch of sea salt to a batch of Hollandaise sauce.” --Katherine Tomlinson, CriminalElement.com“This Agatha Award-winning author of the Liz Talbot mysteries has put together a complicated story that’s rich and juicy with plenty of twists and turns. It has lots of peril and romance—something for every cozy mystery fan.” --New York Journal of Books“This is the story that keeps you flipping the pages until late at night. Boyer is definitely a keeper.”--Fresh Fiction“. . . Lowcountry Bombshell is a cozy-feeling, hard-boiled PI novel with a little romance thrown in. The best of three genres all mixed together.” --Nancy McFarlane, Fiction Addiction Reviewer“Flowing with southern charm and delicious flavor, this fast-paced drama quickly draws you in and never lets you go . . . ” --Dru’s Book Musings
