This review is from: Inherited Murder: A Deb Ralston Mystery (Hardcover)
I have enjoyed the Deb Ralston mysteries. Deb is a police detective in Fort Worth, Texas in special crimes unit and handles some murder cases. Deb and foster child Lori just recently joined the Mormon church. Her adopted son Hal has been a member for years and at 19 he is going on a mission. So his family his vacationing on the way to take him to the mission training center in Provo UT. His dad,Mom,Cameron 4 yr old brother and his girl friend Lori,also their pit bull dog
while they are visiting Salt Lake City they go to Gilgal a sculpter garden. ( I have lived with in a few minutes of the garden and never heard of it before and now want to go.) They discover Alexandra murdered body thier. She lives in the bed and breakfast that they are staying with her sister. Alexandra has multiple personalitys. Georgina the owner of Bed and Breakfast asked Deb to find out what happened too her sister by talking to her friends that she does not think will talk to police. So while Deb is trying to find out which personality Alexandra was murdered. she finds more murders before solving the case. It kept me reading to find out what happens next. Good plot, clean murder mystery that I enjoyed.

It is generally considered dirty pool for a writer to review his or her own book. But I have a reason for reviewing this one, before it lands at Amazon later this spring, available for Kindle or as a POD. The reviewers called it trite and said that the conclusion was obvious. The reviewers were right. It was trite and the conclusion was obvious. But it wasn't the book I set out to write. The proposal I submitted to St. Martin's Press called for a different twist on the multiple personality disorder murder: The woman with MPD was the victim of the murder, and it was necessary to determine which of her personalities was murdered in order to find the murderer. Editor Hope Dellon would have none of it. She didn't like the idea. She insisted that I write what I ultimately wrote. She who pays the piper calls the tune, and I was the piper and Hope Dellon called the tune. I wrote the book she insisted I write. Ironically, the poor reviews of this book were part of the reason St. Martin's Press decided to drop a profitable series. It is the Hope Dellon version that will become available this spring with the rest of the Deb Ralston series. But one day, if I live long enough, I am going to write the book I wanted to write. And it won't be trite.
