When successful mystery writer Michal Rice, better known as 'Miz Mike' in Three Prongs, Texas (where misfits fit), spots a dead body in a red pickup truck, she springs into action. But no-one believes her! So she searches for the elusive truck and murder victim herself. After finding and losing them, and being coshed on the head on finding them again, Mike learns the identity of the murdered man, but again, no-one will believe her, not even her 'fiance' Marty Richards. When Mike unexpectedly joins a party of bone dowsers and the body is found, Marty accuses her of witchcraft and turns against her - the ultimate betrayal. But when someone is arrested for the murder, it is the wrong someone! Mike can't let an innocent person suffer while the real murderer escapes. So, naturally, she risks her life to bring the killer to justice.

Her quest attracts an unusual melange of helpers, including wildlife safari park manager Frank...who is determined to replace Marty and win Mike's heart. Will he? Won't he? Will he? Won't he? Come and join the dance!?

BRIDGE BEYOND BETRAYAL is the second book in the Miz Mike series.

About the author: Stephanie Parker McKean has been writing for as long as she remembers - only in her early school years, her tales were generally considered "lies"! But her father wrote a book that did rather well, and when young Stephanie discovered it, too, was all made up, she decided writing would be the career for her. Stephanie is now married to another writer, Alan T. McKean, a minister of God. They live on the lovely Black Isle in Scotland.
