POISON PEN
By: Val Tobin
The Plot:
When their colleague is mur-
dered, three aspiring authors can’t
help meddling in the investigation,
which puts them on the killer’s radar.
Robin refuses to leave the house,
Daphne has OCD, and Beth falls
asleep at the most inopportune mo-
ments. Yet all three find themselves
caught in a cat-and-mouse game
where anything can happen, and no
one is safe.
Will they catch the killer before
he catches them?
Detective Jacob Turner is a modern-day Columbo in search
of a clever killer. Instinct tells him something doesn’t add up.
Then, the case becomes personal and the hunt is on.
Poison Pen is a stand-alone novel and part of the About
Three Authors series, which includes Whoever Said Love Was
Easy? by Patti Roberts and Stolen Hearts & Muddy Pawprints by
Georgina Ramsey.

An Excerpt
“You’re the cop.”
She made it sound like a bad thing. If he wasn’t looking for a
taller, blonder suspect, she would’ve put his radar on alert. Even
so, he didn’t exclude her from being an accessory. Perhaps all
three women conspired together. Interesting thought.
Jacob held up his badge and met her at the front door. “I
am, yes. How’d you know?”
“Saw you on the news last night, Mister No Comment.” She
flashed hazel eyes at him and gave a toss of her head, which tum-
bled riot-red curls around her face. Part of him wanted to arrest
her on the spot so he could see her in handcuffs.
Jesus, how long since he’d been with a woman? He hadn’t
reacted this viscerally to either Daphne or Beth, and they were
more of what you’d call classical beauties. Something about
Robin made him want to touch her.
***** Goodreads Review by Frank Parker: “An enter-
taining read, well plotted, with good character development. . . .
Highly recommended to anyone who likes mystery and ro-
mance.”
