Title: Killalot
Genre: Humorous Mystery
Author Website: cindybrownwriter.com
Book Synopsis
A jouster, a playwright, and a detective walk into a faire. . .but itās no joke when one ends up dead.
Actress and part-time PI Ivy Meadows is thrilled when she learns that the famous playwright behind Hello Dolly Madison is in Arizona. Not so much when she realizes heās a suspect in the murder of a Renaissance faire jouster.
As is her friend Riley. And about a thousand other people, all disguised in Renaissance costume during the fatal jousting match.
When Ivy is hired to investigate the killing, she goes undercover as a Cockney belly dancer at the faire and finagles her way into the playwrightās Kennedy-inspired version of Camelotāas Marilyn Monroe, no less.
Then, in the midst of her toughest case ever, Ivy has to solve another dilemma: Will she follow her lifelong dream of being an actor or settle down with the love of her life?
The murder investigation, the play, and real life come together in a twist that begs the question: Is there a happily-ever-after for anyone?

They keep getting better all the time Cindy. I’m looking forward to the new one. It might inspire me to go to the Renaissance Faire again this year. I haven’t been in a long time. Cute cover, but I’ll be downloading it so won’t see it much. I’ll try to get it on my Kindle before publication. Good luck with sales! However, I’m sorry you have given up writing plays — I really enjoyed the ones I got to do.
