275 Words: Kris Neri's latest
publication is REVENGE FOR OLD TIMES’ SAKE, the
third book in the multi-award-nominated Tracy Eaton mysteries,
of which MYSTERY SCENE writes, "Kris Neri and Tracy
Eaton will be favorites in the mystery world for quite
a long time." Her first novel, REVENGE OF THE GYPSY
QUEEN -- featuring Tracy Eaton, mystery writer, detective
wannabe and the offspring of eccentric Hollywood stars
-- was nominated for Agatha, Anthony and Macavity Awards.
The second book in this madcap series is DEM BONES' REVENGE.
Library Journal calls DEM BONES' REVENGE, which spotlights
the career and murderous scandals of Tracy's exasperating
mother, screen legend Martha Collins, "…a real
page turner." She has also published a paranormal
mystery, HIGH CRIMES ON THE MAGICAL PLANE, a supernatural
mystery, which NYT Bestselling author Diana Gabaldon has
described as “delicious; a funny, pell-mell romp
of an adventure rife with psychics, FBI agents and clowns.”
HIGH CRIMES ON TEH MAGICAL PLANE has recently received
a Lefty Award nomination from Left Coast Crime 2010. Kris
has also published a standalone thriller, NEVER SAY DIE,
an edgy suspense novel featuring professional triathlete
Zoey Morgan. William Kent Krueger, author of the bestselling
MERCY FALLS, writes of it: "NEVER SAY DIE delivers
everything a discerning fan of the genre could desire:
a tough, engaging heroine, plenty of suspense and romance,
and a complex mystery that stubbornly refuses to be solved
until the final pages." Her short story collection
is ROSE IN THE SNOW: TALES OF MISCHIEF AND MAYHEM. She
has also published some sixty short stories, two of which
won the Derringer Award for Best Short Story and two of
which were Pushcart Prize nominees. And she teaches writing
online for the prestigious Writers' Program of the UCLA
Extension School in Los Angeles. Kris is co-owner of THE
WELL RED COYOTE bookstore in Sedona, Arizona., where she
lives with her husband, Joe. Readers can reach her through
