Synopsis

Haunted houses are scary enough without knife-wielding clowns. Especially murderous knife-wielding clowns. So thinks Ellison Russell, single mother, artist, and reluctant sleuth.

Now death wears a red nose, and Ellison is up to the blood-stained collar of her new trench coat in costumes, caffeine, and possible killers. Who stabbed Brooks Harney, and why? Money? Jealousy? Drugs?

With Mother meddling, her father furious, and her date dragged downtown for questioning, it turns out that Ellison's only confidante is Mr. Coffee.

About Julie Mulhern

Julie Mulhern is the USA Today bestselling author of the Country Club Murders series. She is a Kansas City native who grew up on a steady diet of Agatha Christie.

Truth is, she's an expert at calling for take-out, she grumbles about walking the dog, and the dust bunnies under the bed have grown into dust lions.

In addition to mysteries, Julie writes historical, romantic suspense. Her first romance, A Haunting Desire, was a finalist in the 2014 Golden Heart® contest.

Stephen Sondheim’s virtuoso number “Send in the Clowns” may be figurative, but the clowns in Julie Mulhern’s fourth Ellison Russell novel are literal — and at least one is murderous. It’s October 1974, and Ellison Russell — a widowed artist and a member of Kansas City’s WASP elite — tries to track do......more
