Rating:  Summary: A first rate original Mystery! You'll love it. Review: Paula Boyd has been compared to Joan Hess,Janet Evanovich and others who are leaders in this genre. The comparison is more than deserved. If you like a classy mystery with lots of laughs, you will love Paula Boyd's Jolene Jackson mysteries. Boyd's writing is tight, well-crafted and her dialogue purely sparkles with wit and humor. Here's a blurb from the back cover:"Jolene's back in Kickapoo, Texas, for her mother's annual birthday bash at the DQ, which is trouble enough in its own right, but when her checkered high school past comes back to haunt her, the problems turn decidedly deadly. Thanks to her old sweetheart, Sheriff Jerry Don Parker, high school wasn't that bad for Jolene - if you don't count the scandal with the non-teaching English teacher, the daily death threats from a jealous rival or the cocky come-ons from the perverted principal. Okay, maybe things weren't all that great back then after all, but with bodies turning up faster than beer cans in the river, they're a darned sight worse now. And it doesn't help matters that Rhonda The-Lying-Slut Davenport is telling anyone who will listen that Jolene ought to be the one showing up dead." Great fun and a terrific mystery! Treat yourself; order Dead Man Falls. Joan Hall Hovey Author of Nowhere To Hide

Rating:  Summary: Most enjoyable read! Review: Paula Boyd is a new, and welcome!, entry into the female amateur sleuth genre. She has a great ear for dialog, and her mother/daughter combo is really funny. She keeps a lively pace, and spins a good story. I'm looking forward to more!
Rating:  Summary: Most Entertaining. Review: This is a very entertaining book with delightfully interesting characters. I am looking forward to reading more by this author. I enjoyed this book thoroughly. If you like unique characters and unusual settings, then this book is for you.
Rating:  Summary: Dead Man Falls Review: This is truly one of my favorite authors. Just regret that she doesn't turn out more books and is not really recognizable. If you haven't read about her, then by all means I recommend her with highest praise. Her books are a real joy, right up there with Evanovich, Jance, and Grafton.
