◆A hippy, a logger, a pot grower and a clown walk into a bar…and you know you are in Blue River!◆
Sadie Simpson has not had a good month. Dumped by both her employer, and boyfriend, she then learns her Portland home is being demolished to make way for a new on-ramp. Taking a road trip to figure out her future, Sadie plans to drop by her daughter at college, then go visit friends in San Francisco.
But these plans get derailed by an anonymous text.
Her estranged sister, Samantha, has been arrested for murder.
It looks like Sadie is going to have to take a detour off the 101, and head to her old hometown of Blue River. This is where her sister lives, and this is where Cara Armstrong, failed mayoral candidate and local busybody, lived—and died.
Cara’s body was found on the community garden compost heap. She’d been killed by a pair of cannabis trimming scissors.
And those scissors belong to Samantha.
Shears of a Clown is the first book in The Humboldt County Mysteries Series.
