What Fresh Smell

by Jeffrey Marks

Overview

There's Murder in River City - Daycare that is. When Marissa learns that a teacher at the daycare center has been murdered, she comes to the realization that she really didn't know much about the people who worked there, especially the murdered woman. She'll now have to manage her son, her mother and an ex-boyfriend as she tries to hunt down the people behind a robbery ring and the person who killed a daycare teacher. If she's not careful, she might meet the same fate.

About the Author

Jeffrey Marks is a long-time mystery fan and freelancer. After numerous mystery author profiles, he chose to chronicle the short but full life of mystery writer Craig Rice.
That biography (Who Was That Lady?) encouraged him to write mystery fiction. His works include Atomic Renaissance: Women Mystery Writers of the 1940s/1950s, and a biography of mystery author and critic Anthony Boucher entitled Anthony Boucher. It has been nominated for an Agatha and fittingly, won an Anthony. He is currently completing a biography of Erle Stanley Gardner.
He is the long-time moderator of MurderMustAdvertise, an on-line discussion group dedicated to book marketing and public relations. He is the author of Intent to Sell: Marketing the Genre Novel, the only how-to book for promoting genre fiction.
This is the third entry in his Marissa Scott series. The first book in that series, The Scent of Murder, received the Malice Domestic Grant several years ago.
His work has been nominated for a Maxwell award (DWAA), an Edgar (MWA), three Agathas (Malice Domestic), two Macavity awards, and three Anthony awards (Bouchercon).
