Santa Fe Mojo / Dog Gone Lies / Murder So Wrong
(2020)An omnibus of novels by Ted Clifton and Stanley Nelson
Three full-length mystery novels from award-winning author Ted Clifton.
Santa Fe Mojo(Vincent Malone #1)
Divorced, aging, alcoholic legal investigator Vincent Malone loses his last client and decides to live out his years in Santa Fe. He takes a job as a shuttle bus driver for a new B&B, but when a high-profile LA sports agent is murdered and the deputy sheriff accuses Malone, Vincent has no choice but to investigate the murder himself. With some unexpected help from an ancient lawyer and the sweetest B&B owners in the state, Malone lifts the lid on something much bigger than a single murder... all while still driving the shuttle bus.
Santa Fe Mojo drops a hard-boiled detective in the middle of a cozy mystery and lets the sparks fly. What happens when a broken man is given a second chance? Will he sabotage himself again, or finally find his place in the world?
Dog Gone Lies(Pacheco & Chino #1)
Retired sheriff Ray Pacheco came to Elephant Butte lake for some peace and quiet. But when a show-dog appears at Ray's cabin and the owner is reported missing, Ray begins a new chapter as a private investigator. Joined by his partners, often-drunk Apache fishing guide Tyee Chino and bait-shop owner and would-be philosopher Big Jack, Ray follows clues that pull them into confrontations with the local Sheriff, the mayor, and even the FBI. Meanwhile, two bodies turn up—and neither of them is the missing woman.
Dog Gone Lies is Ted Clifton's best-selling mystery.
Murder So Wrong(Muckraker Mysteries #1)
Oklahoma, 1960. When Tommy Jacks took his first job out of journalism school, he never expected he'd be investigating the murder of a reporter on the steps of the state capitol. To make matters more personal, the reporter worked for the paper that put Tommy's father in prison at the height of his political career years before. Tommy won't stop following the leads... but things are going to get much more personal than he could imagine.
Set against the backdrop of a newspaper war, and inspired by real events in 1960's Oklahoma, Murder So Wrong is a murder mystery through a journalist's eye.
Reader warning: All three novels contain profanity, some of it strong. If that's a turn-off for you, you might prefer to skip these stories.
Genre: Mystery
