ELIZABETH DANIELS SQUIRE...FORGET ABOUT MURDER
"Squire has once again created a lively engaging mystery that will keep readers happily turning pages until the satisfying conclusion."
Kathe Robin, Romantic Times
"...Elizabeth Daniels Squire has written a delightful mystery series starring a memorable heroine who readers will not forget."
Harriet Klausner
"For some, Peaches Dann is an old friend. For others, she's a new but quirky heroine. Squire has crafted an amiable character whose erratic memory and her attempts to compensate are endearing, as is her propensity to follow a trail to the truth, whereever it might be found. Squire has obviously found a formula to the truth, whereever it might be found. FORGET ABOUT MURDER is ...a cozy mystery with likable characters, a colorful setting and a highly satisfying conclusion."
PJ Nunn, The Charlotte Austin Review
"Squire has created the most innovative sleuth in literature. Peaches combines intellect and action, to say nothing of a marvelous sense of humor. Even the tips on improving your memory are helpful."
Anna Ashwood Collins
"Peaches Dann is a most endearing character that readers come to identify with and care about. Squire has once again created a lively, engaging mystery that will keep readers happily turning pages until the satisfying conclusion."
Toby Bromberg
WHERE THERE'S A WILL
"Charming and witty conversation makes this book sparkle, along with helpful memory-enhancing tips from Peaches and her book. Watch for more adventures in the delightful series."
Linda Hutton, editor of Mystery Time
"Where There's a Will is a who-done-it loaded with misdirection cleverly executed by the author. Anyone who reads this novel will search for the previous five books in this humorous series with a deep message."
Harriet Klausner, www.amazon.com
"A delight from start to finish."
Dorothy Cannell, author of Trouble With Harriet
REVIEWERS enjoy Peaches Dann...
"A Weaverville author has started the new year with a book, a movie option, and a place as Ms. August in a new internationally distributed calendar."
"Elizabeth Daniels Squire makes her strongest showing yet with absent-minded sleuth Peaches Dann in Is There a Dead Man in the House? . . . This fifth Peaches novel is an entertaining romp with likable characters."
"Everybody's favorite absent-minded sleuth is back...you won't want to miss this newest adventure - there's something for history buffs, middle-aged children of unmanageable parents, and all of us who stand in a room wondering "why did I come here?"
- Meritorious Mysteries
"IS THERE A DEAD MAN IN THE HOUSE? Is the fifth book in the Peaches Dann series, starring a unique heroine whose faulty memory makes her crime solving abilities a delightful counterpoint. Elizabeth Daniels Squire creates a realistic murder mystery that is only solvable if the reader is a genius or an expert on amateur sleuths. Ms. Squire has created a charming series that successfully combines the best of a cozy with the elite of a literary mystery."
"Squire is one of the most interesting and funniest mystery writers around. You'll like Peaches and might even pick up a few tips to improve your memory."
"ELIZABETH DANIELS SQUIRE and her Peaches Dann have never been better than in their latest mystery-adventure set in the historic Middle Tennessee landscape south of Nashville. Taking full advantage of this history, Squire integrates dashes of humor and strong characters from both the past and present in creating the house and atmosphere central to her fast-paced story. And, as always, Peaches' memory for names, or lack thereof, makes her a most winning and modest narrator-heroine."
- Wilma Dykeman, Tennessee State Historian and author of Tennessee: A History (W. W. Norton) and Tennessee Woman: An Infinite Variety (Wakestone Books.)
"In IS THERE A DEAD MAN IN THE HOUSE, Peaches has her hands, and her memory, full trying to cope with murders from two eras, her father's sudden marriage to eternal optimist Azalea and the frightening actions of a cousin with a hair trigger temper."
"As in all earlier Peaches Dann adventures, this one is fast paced, intricate of plot, laced with humor, and providing tips on how to sharpen one's memory as Peaches works on hers. There is even a romance along the way...And as usual, the strong characters are so believable and well-rounded that they seem to walk off the page."
"Peaches Dann is a darling, bound to appeal to all of us who are less than perfect. The story is tantalizing, and Ms. Squire does a fine job connecting the past with the present. Cure the winter blues with this slice of warm southern entertainment."
