Dead Man Falls (Jolene Jackson Mysteries Book 2)

Book 2--The 2nd Jolene Jackson Mystery
WINNER of the 2001 WILLA Literary Award for Best Original Paperback

Joleneâ€™s back in Kickapoo for her motherâ€™s annual birthday bash at the DQ, which is trouble enough, but when her checkered high school past comes back to haunt her, the problems turn decidedly deadly.

Thanks to her old sweetheart, Sheriff Jerry Don Parker, high school wasnâ€™t that bad for Joleneâ€“if you donâ€™t count the scandal with the non-teaching English teacher, the daily death threats from a jealous rival or the cocky come-ons from the perverted principal.

Okay, maybe things werenâ€™t that great, but with bodies turning up faster than beer cans in the river, theyâ€™re a darned sight worse now. And it doesnâ€™t help matters that old rival Rhonda-the-Lying-Slut Davenport wants Jolene to be the next one to take a dive at Dead Man Falls.

Note: Dead Man Falls and other Jolene Jackson Mysteries are only available in the revised ebook editions.

Dead Man Fallsâ€“Book Review
Reviewed by Lynn F. for ReadersFavorite.com

Dead Man Falls by Paula Boyd is book two in her Jolene Jackson Mystery series and I have to say itâ€™s as hilarious as the first book. Once again Jolene is back in Kickapoo, Texas this time for her motherâ€™s big birthday bash. This is a yearly occasion and always held at the gossip center of Kickapoo: the Dairy Queen. The biggest thing going on in the area this time besides her motherâ€™s birthday is the brand new waterfall they have made. Funny there is a town called Redwater Falls and no waterfall. Not only is the falls the main attraction, so is the body Jolene just happens to spot falling down the rocks into the river as they have what would technically be called a ribbon cutting. Seems the minute Jolene hits town bodies start showing up, but this time itâ€™s a blast from the past, her high school years. Someone is out to get rid of some of the classmates and Jolene and old sweetheart Sheriff Jerry Don Parker are also a target. As the bodies pile up all around the falls the race is on to find the killer out of the many suspects.
Once again Paula Body takes the reader on a rollicking hilarious ride through the country side of Texas. As we keep up with the same characters in the first book we have a couple of new ones added. This is a great series!

Reviews for the Award-Winning Jolene Jackson Mystery Series

â€œDonâ€™t mess with Texas! Youâ€™ll laugh your way from Kickapoo to Redwater Falls and back.â€ â€“ Linda Huntley Wills, REDBOOK

â€œAnyone who enjoys the works of Janet Evanovich or Joan Hess is going to love Ms. Boyd.â€ â€“ Toby Bromberg, Romantic Times

â€œâ€¦a terrific mystery, sharply drawn, cleverly plotted, dynamically presented, and pure sleuthing entertainment from first page to last.â€ â€“ Wisconsin Bookwatch

â€œThis is a wild ride with thrills, chills and laughs galore. Highly Recommended.â€ â€“ Editor, I *Love* a Mystery

5 Stars and 5+ Laughs! Has to be film adapted. Would make a delightful audiobook. â€ â€¦a hoot and a half of rollicking good mystery! The best dang novel Iâ€™ve read all year!â€ â€“ Leann Arndt, The Midwest Book Review

â€œCarl Hiaasen meets Texasville! â€¦a must read for your Sherlock funny bone.â€ â€“ Judi Clark, Mostly Fiction

â€œThis first entry of an apparent series will leave readers loudly laughing at the antics of Jolene and her mother.

â€œWith an irreverent wit and an imagination that knows no bounds, she takes readers for a ride they wonâ€™t soon forget.â€ â€“ Epinions.com
