It's fall in Royal Oak, Michigan, just two miles north of the infamous Eight Mile Road, and jewelry designer Bella Blumer is ready to live the good life and leave the drama of last summer behind her. But the good life is not quite ready for Bella. In addition to jumping head first into another murder investigation to help a long-time friend, Bella has to deal with her fabulous boyfriend who wants to marry her-even if the thought of marriage makes her more than slightly nauseous. Add to that the fact that her newly sullen daughter is ignoring her, and her dragon-lady of a stepsister is in town and making life miserable for Bella's not-so-lovable mother. When the murder investigation reveals one sordid secret after another, Bella has to scramble to find the murderer to save both her friend...and herself. From an early Beta Reviewer: "Wow!! What an adventurous, twisting and turning story! I'm not exactly sure what you're looking for as far as feedback from the beta readers, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story from beginning to end. It truly seems like a story that could have been told by someone who lived it. If you're looking for something specific other than character flow and story plot please let me know. All the characters flowed/blended very well. I enjoyed the mystery of each "suspect" that Bella "interviewed/checked out!" Murderous Emeralds is the second of the fun Jeweltown Cozy Murder Mystery series.
