The Sedona West Mysteries are a three book series detailing how a lovely young woman recovers from nasty divorce, how she handles being involved in not one murder but too many, and how she finally gets her happily ever after... or does she??
Here are the titles:
SLEEPS WITH THE FISHES--Book One
BREAKS AN EGG--Book Two
PUSHES UP DAISIES--Book Three
I started this series because I missed being able
to spend more time with my characters as I did in my Minx Tobin murder mystery
series. Watching Sedona recover and grow from her circumstances was very
satisfying for me. She also becomes very resourceful. And here’s a secret... I
had one man in mind for her when I began but it turns out she chose somebody
else! Let me tell you, that was a surprise!
So here is the info on SLEEPS WITH THE FISHES.
SLEEPS WITH THE FISHES--Book One
Sedona gets more than she bargains for when she
moves to the idyllic town of Cozy Haven. Her intention is to piece together her
shattered life. But Fate decides to throw major roadblocks in her way. First,
the hunky sheriff has his eye on her. Second, a celebrity psychologist tries to
get her on his private couch. Third, her disreputable ex husband unexpectedly
makes an appearance. And fourth, a Girl-Night party turns into an actual Murder
party... with all the guests drugged by sedatives in the wine. Talk about a
major hangover! And now, Sedona finds herself under the sheriff’s scrutiny as a
possible murder suspect. She had the means, the motive, and the opportunity to
kill the deceased so how can she convince everyone that she’s innocent?
fter waking up with the
hangover of the century, Sedona is shocked to learn she is a murder suspect!
Can she actually be the killer?

Here are some fabulous
reviews:
5 Stars! I adore Ms.
Knight’s Minx Tobin Murder Mystery series so I was very excited to learn of
this new one: the three book Sedona West Mystery series. Book 1: SLEEPS WITH
THE FISHES tells of a newly divorced woman starting over. Will she get her
second chance at love? Spoiler Alert: Not in this book, she doesn’t. But things
look hopeful that Sedona will decide on her man in Book 2 or 3. As we soon
learn, Sedona is in a “candy store” phase when it comes to men... and oh, what
men to chose from! In this book, we have a very satisfying murder (!) that then
comes with a satisfying conclusion. Looking forward to Book 2: BREAKS AN EGG.--Mystery
Maven’s Reviews
5 Kisses! We first
discovered this author in the 90s (!) and Ms. Knight keeps getting better and
better. SLEEPS WITH THE FISHES is the first in a 3 book series, where, to be
blunt, a murder victim sleeps with the fishes! Realistic characters, idyllic
setting (except for the murder), and an evolving love story, this mystery novel
has it all. Highly recommended.--The Romance Guide
5 Stars! This cozy has
it all, romance, mystery-murder and humor. Sedona West has moved to the small
town of Cozy Haven, Montana to recover from a nasty divorce and finds herself
smackdab in the middle of a murder--her ex-husband. And wouldn't ya know, just
when she's sworn off men she's garnered the interest of two hunky males.
The author did a
wonderful job of world and character building, helping the reader to dive right
into the story. I found it to be a very enjoyable read. A book to be
appreciated by cozy murder mystery fans and readers who just want a few hours
of escapism.--Sandra Cox Review
5 Stars! An interesting
and compelling mystery! I became engaged in this novel from the very first
page: The characters, the story line, and the evocative way that Knight sets
the scene for the reader. I continued to be engaged as I read the rest of the
book. Sleeps with the Fishes shows Knight’s usual deft touch with constructing
mystery stories. You will be surprised when you find out who the killer is!
Sleeps with the Fishes is part of Knight’s Sedona West series. Sedona is an
attractive character, so you will probably find that you want to read about
more of her adventures. I will definitely be reading more of this author’s
books, and I recommend that you do, too. Steve Arnett Review

For my “Tidbit From Real Life” that I always like
to include in my books, I’ll tell you about an inside joke. Dr. Harrison
Oakdale is a celebrity psychiatrist with a little too much ego for his own
good. When he sees what he thinks is an interloper on his vacation rental land,
he assumes she, Sedona, is there to provide him with a night of pleasure--a
celebrity groupie. Then he spots a book cover by her side that is identical to
one of his bestsellers. I’ll let Harrison describe his first encounter with
Sedona:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Of course, you’re
reading the perfect book.” He gestured to the hardcover on the dock, next to
her lounger chair, and then smirked.
But she didn’t get the
connection. She glanced down at the book, and then up at him. Her eyebrows
formed a vee of confusion. “This book?”
He’d forgive her for
being obtuse. “Certainly. My book was on the New York Times best-seller
list for thirty weeks in a row last year.”
Sure, he was bragging,
but he was entitled to gloat every now and then.
“This is your
book?” she asked.
He didn’t come out here
to talk about his books. “Naturally.”
“You
wrote The Creative Writing Workbook?”
“What? No, I...” He took
a good look at the book and sure enough, the title was as she said, not his Grow
Into Your Life best-seller. The Creative Writing Workbook was
authored by a woman.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I certainly had fun with that one!
I hope you enjoy Sedona West’s first adventure in SLEEPS WITH THE FISHES! Next up is BREAKS AN EGG.
