About this series

 

"Snappy prose laced with wry humor, and equally witty dialog."

 

Meet the Harlow Brothers.

 

Edward, a former college linebacker and ghost writer of a popular etiquette series, makes public appearances on behalf of the fictitious Aunt Civility as her nephew. His younger brother, Nicholas, is his secretary, personal assistant, and lackey.

 

When the brothers arrive at the isolated Inglenook Resort for a lecture on all things genteel, the discovery of a corpse in the guest room next door sends Edward's ordered world spinning out of control.

 

With Edward in danger of losing his manners (and blowing his cover), Nicholas scrambles to keep the author's reputation unsullied and convinces him to team up to solve the crime. But soon the investigation turns into a sibling competition, and the price for losing is death.

 

Murder meets farce in this first Harlow Brothers mystery.

    "Vick can inject humor into a death scene while simultaneously providing an important clue."    Join the Harlow Brothers for another romp through murderous suspects, romantic possibilities, and the ever-present sibling rivalry.   It drives Nicholas Harlow crazy that his brother, Edward, the secret author of the Aunt Civility etiquette books, refuses to attend publicity events, instead opting to give lectures to like-minded societies as the allegedly agoraphobic Auntie's representative.   When Nicholas tricks him into a public speaking event, the attendees include Edward's former college English professor – a smarmy Lothario with his own book to hawk. Then the professor dies in a spectacularly public manner, and his last act is to point an accusatory finger at his former student.   When Edward is brought in for questioning in front of the local paper's star reporter, Nicholas adds damage control to a growing list of responsibilities that includes pegging the appropriate party for murder. But when he develops feelings for one suspects that no respectable sleuth should have, the investigation jumps off the rails. Unfortunately, the killer remains on course, and it's only a matter of time before the brothers must make hard decisions in order to deliver justice.

      "Murder and jealousy wrapped in charm and wit, the novel is a delightful read!"   Mistaken identities, romantic rivals, and a host of misunderstandings.   The Harlow Brothers are back at Inglenook resort, and not just because Edward is missing his long-distance love, Claudia Inglenook. The former college linebacker turned ghost writer of the Aunt Civility etiquette books is the guest of honor at a charity fundraiser, where he'll appear as the allegedly agoraphobic Auntie's representative.   As Edward's secretary, Nicholas is forced to tag along. His one hope for the weekend is the event will give Edward's declining book sales a boost. For the record, he despises Claudia.   At the kickoff costume ball, one of the guests is found impaled with the sword from Edward's Zorro outfit, and as Nicholas scrambles to clear Edward's name, he comes up against suspects and motives he'd rather not reveal. Then he discovers a secret that could mean the end of Aunt Civility.   Though Edward stands to lose everything, he and Nicholas push to find the truth, but when the killer targets those the real Aunt Civility loves, solving the mystery becomes a fight for survival.

Author

Jacqueline Vick

Jacqueline Vick writes mysteries that include farcical situations and satirical humor. She writes about characters who are reluctant to accept their greatest (and often embarrassing) gifts. She is the author of THE FRANKIE CHANDLER PET PSYCHIC MYSTERIES about a woman who, after faking her psychic abilities for years, discovers animals can communicate with her. The series evolved out of her desperate attempts to train a rescued mutt with fear-based aggression. Two visits with animal communicators inspired the article Calling All Canine Clairvoyants for Fido Friendly Magazine, and, later, Frankie Chandler. Her second series, THE HARLOW BROTHER MYSTERIES, features brothers Edward and Nicholas Harlow. Edward, a former college linebacker, now ghost writes the Aunt Civility etiquette books. Nicholas is his secretary and general dogsbody. Her first mystery, Family Matters, was a semifinalist in the 2009 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Competition. Her short stories have appeared in numerous publications, including Future Mystery Anthology Magazine and The Best of Everyday Fiction Two Anthology. Her Harlow Brothers novella, Lovely As, was a finalist for the Black Orchid Novella Contest.
