Sinopsis

Never Go To Bed Dead!

This fifth installment in Steven Womack’s award-winning, best-selling Music City Murders series won the Private Eye Writers of America Shamus Award as Best Paperback Original.

The bestselling toast of Tennessee authors, Robert Jefferson Reed made a Lower Broadway party bus full of money publishing his folksy homilies like Never Go To Bed Angry and Eat Your Vegetables.

He should have added Don’t Drown Me In A Frickin' Hot Tub…

Which is exactly where Nashville P.I. Harry James Denton finds Reed after his wife hires him to catch her hubby in a tryst with a sexy secretary. Turns out Music City’s favorite wholesome, folksy All-American dad’s got an All-American roving eye…

That’s not the only problem. In the stuffy, genteel world of publishing, jealousies and resentments run wild. Reed’s not only made a ton of money, he’s made a ton of enemies as well. As Harry digs deeper, he finds a whole cast of characters who want Reed dead.

And one of them is out to set Harry up. Harry soon finds himself #1 with a bullet on the list of suspects. Can he uncover the murderer before he winds up on the remainder table?

Each installment of Steven Womack’s Music City Murders Series either won or was nominated for a major mystery award. Readers have compared his dry, acerbic writing style to John D. MacDonald, only with a side-dish of smart-ass on steroids.

"In the overcrowded field of private eye fiction, Steven Womack stands head and shoulders above most of the herd."--Val McDermid, Manchester Evening News

“Womack is right up there with Parker, Jance, and Grafton. He writes a fast-moving, humorous, well-plotted detective story. No psychology like Rendell, no agenda like Cornwell. His Nashville hero, Harry Denton, is colorful and likeable…” Joan Benny, Amazon Reviewer
