When Kurt Bludgeoned Rusty
(2021)(The fourth book in the Whichur-Wolfe Detection series)
A novel by Beth Henderson
KILLAMAN FALLS is living up to its name – unfortunately.
Emmalyst Whichur’s days on the mountain are numbered. Though not as fatally as Rusty Olmstede’s, the latest murder victim within the boundaries of Killaman Falls, were.
Lyst’s goal has been to have concrete beneath her feet and exhaust fumes in her lungs before snow visits the mountain. Yet, when she learns her gentlemanly werewolf crime solving partner has gone off to a crime scene without her, she’s torn. And ticked off.
It’s not like she has a job to go to anywhere. It’s not as though she wants to leave Connor Wolfe behind. With the moon forcing him to shapeshift every twenty-eight days, he has different requirements on places to live than she does. Besides, they’ve only known each other a month.
Connor is simply glad Sheriff Honeycutt told him not to bring Lyst with him to the Olmstede home further up the mountain. He wouldn’t wish the nightmares the memory of Rusty’s unidentifiably beaten face will give him on his worst enemy. That doesn’t mean he and Lyst will avoid this case though.
Particularly not when they begin to find further bodies. Or discover a cache of diamond jewelry, and stacks and stacks of cash. The only canines available to supply information about the victims are the coyotes and they’re not only acting out of character but appear to be amassing an army!
As the Whichur-Wolfe Detection series wraps up, will Connor and Lyst manage to solve the most convoluted case yet! Will they survive the arrival on the mountain of the Úlfhéðnar, the Viking berserker werewolf determined to acquire Lyst’s late aunt’s work on a longevity formula!
There’s only one way to find out! Grab When Kurt Bludgeoned Rusty!
What reviewers are saying of the Whichur-Wolfe Detection series:
“5* WHEN HARRY KILLED SALLY is a quirky paranormal cozy mystery I couldn’t put down… Brilliantly written with an original concept to the series, WHEN HARRY KILLED SALLY is sure to please both mystery and paranormal readers. Not your average cozy…a must-read.”
“5* WHEN CURTSEY KNIFED SAMMY is a cozy paranormal mystery I couldn't put down. Filled with hysterical comedic dialogue, vibrant descriptive narration, off-the-wall characters, and a fast-moving plot, this book has the makings of a streaming television show… Beth Henderson is a brilliant writer and really shines in this niche. I can't get enough of this series… One of the best cozies I've read in a long time.”
“5* WHEN KENEDY STRANGLED BRISCO. This has to be one of the best series of cozies going today… Fun but exciting. Light but serious. Easy going and intense. This series has something for everyone.”
About the Author:
Beth Henderson has always loved mystery and currently she writes quite a lot of it, just under various names. Connor Wolfe isn’t the only one answering to more than one moniker.
Henderson’s first published novel was a romantic suspense comedy, released in May 1990. Since then, she’s worn a variety of names and has seen over 30 novels, 9 novellas, 16 short stories published, and the numbers keep growing. She also writes non-fiction about writing genre fiction. There are very few genres she hasn’t taken a fancy to when it comes to spinning tales.
If you enjoyed When Kurt Bludgeoned Rusty, take a look at The Raven Tales, which are urban fantasy PI comedic mystery with far more characters who have enhanced capabilities or are simply not human in the least. You’ll find these are written under Henderson’s J.B. Dane pseudonym.
