A Do-Si-Do With Death
(2022)(The seventh book in the Stan Kraychik Mystery series)
A novel by Grant Michaels
A Stan Kraychik Mystery, Book 7 – When Dead as a Doornail was published in 1998, we thought we’d seen the last of Stan Kraychik. But thanks to persistent sleuthing, a final adventure has been uncovered, sassy quips all at the ready, nary a hair out of place, and now primed for its debut. Yes, Stan is back for one final adventure!
Stan Kraychik has hung up his scissors, traded them in for a Private Eye license. Sometime nemesis, more often friend Boston PD Lt. Vito Branco, has a soft spot for Stan and sends him a tip: snoop around the First Annual Mucho Macho Honcho Competition being held at The Park Plaza Hotel. Paladin, a gay cowboy, has filed a police report that his Collar Tips had been stolen. Paladin, Mistress of Ceremonies Bistany Evans, DJ Colt Remington, seamstress Kitty, and cutie Chester are all Square Dancing … around his questions. After a whole lotta dancin’ and hip twistin’ and general saaa-shayin’ about, stolen jewelry leads to murder. Kraychik has to do a Do-Si-Do with Death to solve this crime in time for his Memorial Day weekend cookout.
Don’t miss a zany, classic-Kraychik moment. This debut edition features a foreword by Leigh Ann Wallace. A ReQueered Tales Original Publication.
“A delightful debut with a gay hairdresser-investigator who gets his fingers into a lot more things than hair. It’s a promising start to what looks to be a successful series.” – George Baxt
“Grant Michaels’ sleuthing hairdresser has both the sensitivities of his craft and the balls to impel him into atypical daring. A Body to Dye For has the tart, racy smell of success.” – The Bay Area Reporter
“Love You to Death is an engaging murder mystery that epitomizes the best in the genre. The one-liners fly as fast as bullets and there is a surprise in nearly every chapter.” – The Advocate
“In Dead on Your Feet, Michaels hands another case to out-of-the-closet, loud and proud Boston hairdresser Stan Kraychik in this witty, fast-moving romp.” – Publishers Weekly
“In Mask for a Diva, Grant Michaels invades the world of opera with often hilarious results … The people and plot are engaging and the ending leaves us with an intriguing hint of what we may expect in Stan’s next adventure in mayhem.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
“Time to Check Out is another entertaining haywire adventure for the sleuthing Boston hairdresser.” – Library Journal
Genre: Cozy Mystery
