What readers say

Deany Ray is best known for the Piper Harris mysteries about a granddaughter and grandmother hiding from their biker-gang past in Florida, and also writes the Charlie Cooper, Ouna Bay and Hailey Webb cozies. Readers enjoy her light, funny, clean stories with no gore or rough language, quirky small-town casts and a touch of romance, and many compare her to Janet Evanovich. Common criticisms are repetition from book to book, predictable solutions and editing slips, and some find the humor uneven.

Best for: Readers who want quick, clean, funny cozies with quirky casts.
