A Plot for Murder

"A Plot for Murder". From the first sentence, it captures your attention and carries you on an intriguing mystery-solving adventure." Review by Sharon Sehon  

"Like a chess game, author James R Callan moves the pieces of his story around until it's impossible to guess who the murderer is until the closing chapters. This cozy mystery is well-plotted, well-written, and polished. Checkmate!" Review by Kelly Marshall.

Rod Granet, award-winning novelist and womanizer, is the main speaker at a writers conference. But in front of a crowd after the opening session, Maggie DeLuca, Father Frank's sister, accuses Granet of stealing her story and says he will pay for it.

That night, Granet is killed.

The sheriff quickly zeros in on Maggie and she is hauled off in handcuffs.  When Father Frank comes to her aid, the sheriff threatens him with jail if he interferes.

A Texas Ranger is assigned to the investigation. Soon the Ranger sees Father Frank as a valuable asset.

As the sheriff continues to harass Father Frank and Maggie, the Ranger pushes Father Frank to help, telling him the sheriff considers Maggie his only suspect.

Can Father Frank stay alive, out of jail, and identify the real killer?
