About the Book

In Rock, Roll, and Ruin, twenty-seven mystery writers serve up musically-themed crime stories around situations as unique as your inky fingerprints. There's the bad-boy rock star, dumber than dirt, evading all attempts to keep him out of jail. Casino robbers undone by tribal flutes. A 1950's jukebox that summons the dead and disappears the living. Jealousy drives girl band shenanigans, while a victim of botched plastic surgery seeks vengeance. Untimely deaths abound: at the prom, on a soap opera set, on a mountain-side hike. Several domestic "disagreements" are far from cliche: one wife is impatient and greedy; another wants her Stevie Nicks albums back; a third is desperate to get her husband to turn down the volume. Elvis fans will be tickled by the many mentions of the King himself, including an over-the-top fan club and a side-kick named after his dog. Whether trudging through snow in an Alaska forest, humming country music at a boatyard in Florida, playing sleuth at an assisted living facility, or stumbling backstage at the opera, irate, despairing, and deceived characters step into crime with barely a second thought.

Rock, Roll, and Ruin is a music-themed anthology of the Triangle, North Carolina chapter of Sisters in Crime. Some stories are cackling-out-loud funny, others are wickedly dark, but all are entertaining, original, un-putdownable. As Hank Phillippi Ryan writes in the Introduction, "Dip in to this concert of mystery, open to any story, and you'll sing a chorus of approval."

Praise for Rock, Roll, and Ruin

"Double-crosses, divas, detectives, and divorces-all set against the soundtrack of our lives. Rock, Roll, and Ruin takes us on a rollicking musical trip down memory lane with Buddy Holly, Chuck Barry, Elvis, and a host of musical delights. Oh, and a murder or ten." -Susan Van Kirk, President of the Guppy Chapter of Sisters in Crime and author of the Endurance Mysteries

"The clever theme of this delightful anthology leads to a plethora of fine short stories featuring music from rock and roll through gospel, country, ole time rock and roll, and opera. Sleuths range from teachers to physicians to waitresses to musicians. Authors are new and veteran. Rock, Roll, and Ruin indeed offers something for any mystery lover." -Molly Weston, Mystery Writers of American Raven Award for Meritorious Mysteries

"From self-important bands through a high school sock hop to rabid fans, these 27 stories follow music-obsessed individuals as their lives descend into crime and mayhem. A fascinating look at danger in our music culture." -KM Rockwood, author of the Jesse Damon crime novel series

"A rollicking good collection of crime stories powered by lyrics, strains, beats, and bop (on the head) malice." -Molly MacRae, author of The Highland Bookshop Mysteries and The Haunted Yarn Shop Mysteries

"When the combination of mystery and music runs amok, the result is Rock, Roll, and Ruin-a book you can't put down!" -Debra Goldstein, author of the Sarah Blair mysteries
