Moonstruck and Murderous
~ A Ned McNeil Mystery ~
by Blanche Day Manos
|
|
|
A cold wind can send shivers down your spine!
The month is March—a strange month, noted for its fickle weather—but this March has an
added strangeness in the form of two full moons. Could they be the reason for murder to
strike the small town of Ednalee, Oklahoma? Some think so.
In the quiet little town, who could be to blame? But there is more than one suspect, and
before the month ends, the murderer strikes again and yet again.
Could the slayings involve the Carver Mansion? Mystery surrounds the estate. Does the ancient
house attract evil?
Perhaps the bloodthirsty predator who stalks these historic grounds is affected by the blue moon?
Amateur sleuth Ned McNeil must find out before even more people die.
Is the killer moonstruck or murderous—or both?
What readers are saying about the Ned McNeil books:
Moonlight Can Be Murder is intriguing to the very end. Blanche Day Manos is masterful in
describing the scenes for the intricate plot twists, It's a great cozy mystery that opens the
new "Ned McNeil" series and makes you wonder what will happen next.
~ Nancy Kay Grace, author of The Grace Impact
"Oh, my, what a goose bump-creating novel! I had shivers right away. This was not only a
mystery with the goose bumps but it was also cozy, so it is unique to the genre. I think
this a book that certainly deserves to be read by more cozy and mystery fans. It's a
diamond of a find to review and I am eager to read the next book.

The second series, the Ned McNeil Moonlight books, begins with Nettie Elizabeth McNeil returning to
her hometown of Ednalee, looking forward to a reunion with her only living relative, her Uncle Javin.
The reunion fails to happen and Ned, as her friends call her, discovers that she is involved in a
web of lies and mysteries that have their origin in a murder that happened decades ago.

By the Fright of the Silvery Moon. The third Ned McNeil book, Moonstruck and Murderous, follows
Ned and her two childhood friends into the mystery surrounding a 200-year-old house that is
lovely to look at but is built around a deadly secret of its own.
