More About the Author

Hi to all readers who love a good mystery with a twist. My name is Peg Marberg and I'm proud to inform you that I'm one of Berkley's new Prime Crime writers.

My first book, Faux Finished, is available at every major bookstore. In it Jean Hastings an interior designer uses all her skills as both designer and amateur sleuth to solve a murder. I think you'll enjoy it and the others to follow.

I would love to hear from you with your questions and comments. Peg

5.0 out of 5 stars A great little cozy, March 25, 2008

If you liked Peg Marberg's first book, "Faux Finished", you'll love "Decorated to Death", the second in her series. This little "cozy" is a fun read - just the right size to tuck in your bag on a cross country trip. It's not Hemingway, or even Stephen King (hey, did I mention it's a "cozy"?)but it is fun to read - no real blood and gore or autopsies - just a mystery set in a small midwestern town (Seville, Indiana)with lots of eccentric characters. Peg Marberg has a good ear for dialogue and, if some of her chracters are "over the top", so much the better. I look forward to the next book in the series.

If mysteries are your thing but you can't stand gore Peg Marberg has a mystery for you. Set in the small town of Seville, Indiana, you'll want to join Peg's zany characters as they try to solve a mystery without getting blood on their hands, or on the freshly painted walls!
