Title: Delivering Death

Author: Julie Kramer

Review:   Loved it!!!  When I opened the mail and this book was there I screamed…yeah sometimes it really pays off to be a book reviewer, because I get this book months before the rest of the world…that said I loved this book.  I did guess what was going to happen at the end, but it had me doing a happy dance.

I do not want to give the plot away, but Riley gets herself tangled up with a criminal and danger lurks all around her…like usual.  But, the dialogue is quick, the writing is fast paced and I couldn’t put it down once I started reading.  I read these books to fast when only 1 comes out a year or less with this one being a few months overdue.

Riley’s parents always make me laugh and the mention of my hometown (quite a few times…BTW I love all those interstate exits-that is how we get around town) this is a funny mystery/thriller that you will love.  Comedy, Drama mixed with Mystery and a few murders along the way… what’s not to love?

If you have read her other books you need to get this one January 7^th and if not then go get any of them…I would suggest the first…I always like to start at the beginning, but you could start anywhere and still enjoy Riley and her cast of misfits….I especially love Nick.  Julie thanks for the ending….loved it!!!!

Synopsis: From the author of Stalking Susan comes the latest installment in the “compulsively readable” (WCCO-TV) bestselling Riley Spartz thriller series, featuring a smart, sassy, and always entertaining TV reporter as she matches wits with a media-savvy killer.

The most appealing mystery heroine since Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum, TV reporter Riley Spartz is a star investigative journalist for Channel 3—and no stranger to the seedier side of her hometown. But when she receives a package of smelly human teeth in the mail at work, she’s quickly embroiled in a homicide investigation that spirals into one of the odder cases the Minneapolis police force has ever seen. Though the cops try to keep certain grisly details quiet, this murder has a strange twist—it seems that the killer wants the crime publicized.

Is it a revenge killing, or something more? Riley’s investigation takes her inside a lucrative identity theft ring that links low-life crooks like now-dead Leon Akume to white-collar opportunists like once-wealthy Jack Clemens. Despite a prime motive for murder, Jack also has the ultimate alibi: he's behind bars. While Riley pushes to keep the homicide in the news, her boss is convinced that coverage of the Mall of America’s unique version of a royal wedding is key to the station winning ratings. As the stakes continue to rise for her job and her life, Riley must outwit the killer in a trap that could leave yet another person dead...

An irresistible suspense novel that will keep readers turning pages until the stunning conclusion, Delivering Death brings the humor, intrigue, and twists and turns Julie Kramer’s fans have been waiting for.

Author Biography:  Julie Kramer is has moved from journalist to novelist. She writes a mystery series set in the desperate world of television news—a world she knows well from her career working as a freelance news producer for NBC and CBS, as well as running the acclaimed WCCO-TV I-Team in Minneapolis.

Her thrillers, STALKING SUSAN, MISSING MARK, SILENCING SAM, KILLING KATE and soon to come - SHUNNING SARAH (Aug. 7) - take readers inside how newsrooms make decisions amid chaos. She's won the Minnesota Book Award and the RT Book Review's Best First Mystery. She has also been a finalist for the Anthony, Barry, Shamus, Mary Higgins Clark, Daphne du Maurier, and RT Best Amateur Sleuth Awards.

Julie grew up along the Minnesota-Iowa state line, fourth generation of a family who raised cattle and farmed corn for more than 130 years. Her favorite childhood days were spent waiting for the bookmobile to bring her another Phyllis A. Whitney novel. An avid reader, she tired of fictional TV reporters always being portrayed as obnoxious secondary characters who could be killed off whenever the plot started dragging, so her series features reporter Riley Spartz as heroine.

Julie lives with her family in White Bear Lake, MN.
