Dog Eared Publicity Presents DEAD ON THE BAYOU by June Shaw Cover Reveal on January 20, 2017
Inside the Book:
Title: Dead on the Bayou
Author: June Shaw
Publisher: Lyrical Press
Genre: Cozy Mystery
Format: Ecopy
It may be easier to
patch up an old home than a broken heart. But along the Louisiana bayou, where
beauty and danger mingle all too seamlessly, thoughts of romance may have to
simmer on the back burner . . .
Twin sisters and fellow divorcees Sunny Taylor and Eve
Vaughn have established their home repair and remodeling business with an eye
toward quality and personal attention. So when they’re approached by hunky Dave
Price to fix up his bayou fishing camp, they’re more than happy to take the
job—especially since they both secretly think he may prove to be more than just
another satisfied customer . . .
The ramshackle campsite could certainly use a woman’s touch.
What it does not need is a dead body—but that’s what the trio stumble across.
Clearly, the poor soul was murdered—and once the town tongue-waggers get going,
Sunny, Eve, and Dave come under suspicion of the police, not to mention
potential clients . . .
Now, with their futures on the line, their brewing love
triangle will have to wait. Helped—and harried—by the twins’ mother and her
retirement home’s cadre of amateur sleuths, the trio starts snooping on their
own. But when another dead body turns up, they’ll have to get their hands
dirtier than a swamp-bottom snake if they hope to clear their names . . .

MEET THE AUTHOR
June Shaw lives along a lazy bayou in south Louisiana. She became a young widow with five children, completed a college degree, and started teaching junior high students. Then her deferred dream of becoming a writer took hold.
Between grading papers and being involved in her growing children’s activities, she sold stories and learned to write plays. She won a playwriting contest in Boston, and two of her short plays were produced Off-Off Broadway. A short screenplay she wrote aired on a channel for the arts in New Orleans.
She eventually worked on novels, became a grandmother, and then sold RELATIVE DANGER, which received excellent reviews. Deadly Ink nominated it for their new David award for Best Mystery of the Year. Harlequin reprinted it, and Books in Motion bought audio rights.
KILLER COUSINS was June’s second book in the series that features Cealie Gunther, a spunky young grandma with attitude, and her hunky sometimes-ex lover that she tries to avoid so she can rediscover herself. But he opens Cajun restaurants in all the places she travels, and she is so bad at avoiding tempting dishes and men.
DEADLY REUNION, the third book in her series, takes you aboard a cruise ship in Alaska for a class reunion you won’t want to miss!
June has represented Louisiana on the board of Mystery Writers of America's southwest chapter for many years. She has also served a number of terms as the Published Author Liason for the southern Louisiana chapter of Romance Writers of America.
When June is not writing, she enjoys reading, swimming, fishing, dancing, traveling, meeting new people, and being with her friends and large family.
