My Story

J.W. Hodge loves committing murder, on paper. She finds it very therapeutic. She grew up playing in her grandmother's mortuary, so she's a little more comfortable with death than most. She's loved mysteries from a very young age; they have always been her go-to. She and her husband are kept busy cleaning their apartment complexes. When she is not cleaning or writing, she's involved with local dog rescue, and battling a flock of wild turkeys, who are determined to rule her hillside. She's a member of Sisters In Crime and Mystery Writers of America. She also belongs to two local writing critique groups.

This was a fun and quirky mystery! I usually pride myself that I can figure out who the murderer is quickly. This one kept me guessing. Loved the setting. I enjoyed every minute of this carefully crafted story.
