Murder: Guaranteed to ruin a perfectly good honeymoon.

When Miranda French finally emerges from a few days of connubial bliss with her new husband in an East Anglia inn, she eagerly checks out the local shop…

…and stumbles over a body. A mutilated body. The unfortunate victim was known to be a connoisseur of married women, so it’s a good bet that one of the ladies’ husbands is the culprit. If there’s any hope of getting back to the “honey” part of her honeymoon, Randi will have to take matters into her own hands and get involved in the investigation.

Detective Chief Inspector David French, Earl of Middlebury, has a lot more on his hands than an overly helpful new wife, planted DNA and more suspects than he can comfortably count. The killer isn’t done.

And sending Randi away to the safety of his estate may have been the biggest mistake of his life. She’s next on the killer’s hit list.

Warning, this title contains the following: graphic language, lots of blood, violence, multiple felonious hair-coloring accidents and not-so-subtle hints of lesbian activity.

  1. 4 Nymphs!

    “Ryan did a great job unraveling this complex tale just a bit at a time to keep the reader fully involved. The climax is fast-paced and harrowing. It’s a great action packed suspense novel.”

  2. 5 Hearts!

    “A spunky, totally likable heroine, four murders and a truly hair-raising climax make this a great read. Ryan has a talent for character development, and you will rarely meet such an arrogant mad man. This builds on the earlier book, but takes it to a higher level. Recommended.”

  3. …reminiscent of the old whodunits, like Dashiell Hammett or Raymond Chandler novels: a great mystery to be solved, some intense action and a little romance. One Too Many is a real page turner and will keep you guessing until the very end.

  4. 4 Angels! David and Miranda are well-written characters that anyone can easily relate to. I hung on every page trying to figure out who the killer was. This is another one of Ms. Ryan’s fantastic books and I would recommend it to any reader!
