HOLD, the third book in Amy S. Peele’s medical mystery series is now on audio!

Special thanks to Scribe Media!

From the Publisher:

Sarah Golden and Jackie Larsen promised their partners they were out of the detective business. They declared “game over” after both of them almost lost their lives trying to solve their last medical mystery, and they’re happy with that decision: Sarah has finally allowed love and romance into her life, Jackie’s marriage is solid, and Jackie’s son, Wyatt, is still doing great with his year-old kidney transplant.

So when they go on their dream trip to Cuba, they are not looking for trouble. But all their plans go out the window when a desperate plea from a Cuban transplant surgeon puts the duo in serious danger with the Cuban government on the same day the four most prominent immunologists in the world—doctors who were on the verge of solving the huge rejection issues that have plagued the transplant community for more than 50 years—are killed in a car accident in Chicago.

Soon, Sarah and Jackie find themselves dragged into the bowels of investigating venture capitalists and corporate greed—a terrain they know nothing about. As they uncover suspect clinical trials at major US transplant centers, including Sarah’s, their usual friends Biker Bob and Officer Handsome aren’t able to help them much, but they do receive assistance from an unlikely source: Sergio, who they helped to land in prison in Florida (and who is trying to win back his girlfriend), offers his help from the inside. Sarah and Jackie are armed with smarts, humor, and enough persistence to help them face the white-collared demons of corporate America—but with dangerous players gunning for them and death threats being made against their families, will they be able to solve this mystery before someone else gets hurt?

HOLD can be purchased wherever audiobooks are sold, including Libro.fm, Chirp, Audiobooks.com, Apple Books, Audible, and Amazon.

New Release: REST YE MURDERED GENTLEMEN

December 17, 2022December 17, 2022 amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

Ho! Ho! Ho! Santa made an early delivery.

The coziest mystery REST YE MURDERED GENTLEMEN by Vicki Delany released to audio this week!

Whoo-ee, this year-round Christmas town has one set of quirky characters – I had quite a few chuckles in the audio booth while recording it. And I’m pretty sure the author added the cutest ever Saint Bernard puppy just to warm my heart. Hope you enjoy this listen as much as I did recording it.

Special thanks to Tantor Audio.

Look for book 2 in the series, coming in January!

From the Publisher:

In Rudolph, New York, it’s Christmastime all year long. But this December, while the snow-lined streets seem merry and bright, a murder is about to ruin everyone’s holiday cheer in the first Year-Round Christmas Mystery.

As the owner of Mrs. Claus’s Treasures, Merry Wilkinson knows how to decorate homes for the holidays. That’s why she thinks her float in the semi-annual Santa Claus parade is a shoe-in for best in show. But when the tractor pulling Merry’s float is sabotaged, she has to face facts: there’s a Scrooge in Christmas Town.

Merry isn’t ready to point fingers, especially with a journalist in town writing a puff piece about Rudolph’s Christmas spirit. But when she stumbles upon the reporter’s body on a late night dog walk — and police suspect he was poisoned by a gingerbread cookie crafted by her best friend, Vicky — Merry will have to put down the jingle bells and figure out who’s really been grinching about town, before Vicky ends up on Santa’s naughty list . . .

REST YE MURDERED GENTLEMEN can be found wherever audiobooks are sold, including Libro.fm, Chirp, Audiobooks.com, Amazon, and Audible.

From the Publisher:

What do politics, living donor kidney transplants, and the current opioid crisis all have in common?

Sarah Golden and Jackie Larsen, best friends since nursing school, could never have imagined that they’d end up as amateur sleuths searching to find a killer—for the second time! Jackie, a stay-at-home mom with marriage troubles, is racing the clock to get her young son, Wyatt, a living kidney donor to avoid the ravages of dialysis. Sarah, who has been living her career in the fast-paced world of organ transplantation, is helping expedite Wyatt’s kidney transplant. Then a much-despised hospital colleague turns up dead of an opiate overdose—despite the fact that she’d never used drugs and Sarah smells foul play. Her curiosity and tenacity pull Jackie, once again, into a life-and-death adventure that neither woman could have expected.

Armed with smarts, tenacity, big hearts, and their raucous senses of humor, the pair gets the help of a few colorful friends to pursue the killer and take on the mission in the only style they both know how: straight on and arm-in-arm as the friends they’ve always been.

MATCH is available at most audiobook retailers, including Libro.fm, Chirp, Amazon, and Audible.

Get your spooky listen on this week with this new audiobook release: DARKNESS STIRRING by J.R. Erickson.

Michigan’s Manistee National Forest.

Missing girls.

The supernatural.

Whoo-ee, I am glad I narrated this one during the daylight hours. There *may* be just a few parallels in my own life with this one. . .

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Inspired by an eerie true story.

Lorraine Hicks is 14 years old when she watches her best friend, Beverly, climb into a tree in the forest and never come back down. It’s a mystery that haunts her small town and embeds itself in Lorraine’s life.

Fifteen years later, Lori is a grown woman, doing her best to move on from her troubled childhood. She reluctantly agrees to a night of camping, despite her secret terror of the woods. As she sits by a roaring bonfire, a man stands and tells the story of two 14-year-old friends who walked into the Manistee National Forest – only one of them walked back out.

The story is hauntingly similar to Lori’s own, and she embarks on a quest to discover if the two disappearances are linked.

As she unravels the truth behind the vanishings, she unearths a malevolence that forces her to question if evil truly exists.

Don’t miss this chilling paranormal murder mystery.

DARKNESS STIRRING is available on Audible and Amazon.

New Release: A MAYFAIR CHRISTMAS CAROL

June 1, 2021July 17, 2021 amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

It’s Christmas in June!

Well, that is, when you listen to A MAYFAIR CHRISTMAS CAROL by Kassandra Lamb, the 4th book in the Marcia Banks and Buddy Mystery series.

Experience Florida’s balmy December weather and the cozy breeze of murder with this holiday cozy mystery. As always, I love narrating Marcia and Buddy’s adventures, and can not wait for the next one!

From the Publisher:

A Christmas extravaganza in Mayfair, Florida, complete with an ice skating rink. What could go wrong?

When Mayfair’s newly minted Chamber of Commerce goes off the rails, and decides to build an ice skating rink, a decades-old skeleton is uncovered. The secrets it reveals threaten more than the town’s Christmas plans. Feeling responsible since the let’s-attract-more-tourists idea was hers initially, service dog trainer Marcia Banks is determined to help her police detective boyfriend solve the mystery – whether he wants her help or not. Maybe she can wheedle more out of the townspeople than he can.

Will she and her black Lab, Buddy, keep the ghost of Christmas past from destroying what is left of Mayfair’s founding family, or will her meddling make things worse?

(This novella can be enjoyed as a stand-alone, but it is an integral part of the Marcia Banks and Buddy Mystery series. It’s suggested that listeners following the series not skip it.)

A MAYFAIR CHRISTMAS CAROL is available on Audible, Amazon, iTunes and wherever audiobooks are sold.

New Release: THE CALL OF THE WOOF

May 18, 2021May 28, 2021 amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

Happy audiobook birthday to Kassandra Lamb for THE CALL OF THE WOOF. I had so much fun narrating Marcia Banks (Mar-see-uh, not Mar-sha!) and Buddy’s 3rd adventure. A wild ride, for sure!

From the Publisher:

Army veteran Jake Black has a new lease on life, thanks to service dog Felix and his trainer Marcia Banks. Despite a traumatic brain injury, Jake’s able to ride his beloved motorcycle again, with Felix in the sidecar. But his freedom to hit the open road is threatened once more when he and his wife are accused of robbery.

Called in to dog-sit, Marcia can’t sit idly by. She and her mentor dog Buddy set out to clear the Blacks’ name, fighting misconceptions about bikers and about TBI along the way. When murder is added to the mix, Marcia redoubles her efforts, despite anonymous threats and her sheriff boyfriend’s strenuous objections, both to her putting herself at risk…and to dragging him along on her wild ride.

THE CALL OF THE WOOF is available on Audible, Amazon, iTunes and wherever else audiobooks are sold.
