Quote the Endling

Velda Brotherton turns Cedarton upside down in her epic final Twist of Poe Mystery... QUOTE THE ENDLING.

Misconceptions of the past can twist perceptions of love, greed, and deception. Unusual excitement erupts in the little town of Cedarton when tiger thieves strike a nearby farm for exotic animals. To further distress lawmen and residents alike, rumor has it that someone is opening a pub downtown... smack in the middle of a county that's been bone Baptist dry for as long as anyone can remember.

These small upheavals are forgotten when Loren, the newspaper owner's lover, is found murdered. She turns out to be a woman who was closely tied to Deputy Sheriff Dallas Starr's dead wife, Leanne. Stranger occurrences follow, dragging Dal back to Texas to investigate the murder. There he learns the truth about his wife's death and how it threatens the citizens of Cedarton. All the while, reporter Jessie Stone follows a convoluted trail of clues to get to the bottom of what's happening in town, only to get caught up in more than she may be able handle. Will Dal be able to put all the pieces together before the same thing that happened to his wife happens to his beloved Jessie, too?

About the Author
Brotherton, Velda: - VELDA BROTHERTON writes from her home perched on the side of a mountain against the Ozark National Forest. Branded as Sexy, Dark, and Gritty, her work embraces the lives of gutsy women and heroes who are strong enough to deserve them. After a stint writing for a New York publisher, she's settled comfortably in with small publishers to produce novels in several genres. While known for her successful series work-the Twist of Poe romantic mysteries, as well as her signature Western Historical Romance Victorians and Montana series-her publishing resume also includes numerous standalone novels like Remembrance, Once There Were Sad Songs, A Savage Grace, Wolf Song, Stoneheart's Woman, and her magnum opus, Beyond the Moon. She enjoys reading mysteries, but it never occurred to her she could write them until Dal Starr and Jessie West emerged from her background in the newspaper business, and the Twist of Poe mysteries were born.
