“The  story is so creatively woven and took a while to set up, but man those  characters are a group of women who can hold their own. I love being  inside their head as they start to piece it all together. Surprise at  every turn as the mystery unfolds.  --  Arkansas Blogger

Way to start a series!

"I'm on page seven and I love it. I feel wrapped in wisteria and I can smell the smoke and hear the clicks of the dominoes.  I could teach allusion, assonance, alliteration, imagery, and characterization with just these seven pages!  I've got to go read my new favorite author!"

“Happy 50th on a Cruise?  What could go wrong?  Zelda Carlisle and her three besties find out when they trip over a dead body on deck.  Ruin the cruise with a police investigation or keep the party hardy?  'Weekend at Bernies' on the high seas ensues, along with giggles and close calls aplenty.  Slapstick and lipstick and sleuthing go hand in hand.

 “Jane Elzey’s characters remind me of the saying, 'A good friend will bail you out of jail. A great friend will be in the cell with you!’  These gals are great friends. Jane Elzey spins a yarn full of twists and turns and I-never-saw-that-coming moments that make for a very fun read.”

“Jane  Elzey continues to entertain. This 3rd  adventure hooked me early. I could not guess who did it.  Wonderful intrigue, perfect suspense. Surprises  at every turn. Getting to know the depth of the 4 main characters has  felt like being a part of the Cardboard Cottage group. Can't wait to go  to Ireland with them."  --  Elizabeth Carol

"Jane Elzey excels in the story tension department.”

“I  didn’t think Jane could create a better  'edge of your seat' mystery as  good or better than her first two in this series, but she’s done it. I  loved this book and have given several away to friends who now feel the  same. I can’t wait for the 4th. Bring it on, Jane Elzey, bring it on."  --  Florida Painter

  “Jane Elzey is a wickedly talented storyteller with a writing voice that entertains from the first page to the last. You will find that the killer isn't always the butler, in the den, with a knife. Enjoy the ride!”   — Woody Barlow, Author of Tarzan Wore Chaps and The Aluminum Ballet
