Guaranteed to Bleed (The Country Club Murders Book 2)

â€œSet in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1974, this cozy mystery effectively recreates the era through the details of down-to-earth Ellisonâ€™s everyday life.â€ â€“ Booklist

With his dying breath, Bobby Lowell begs Ellison Russell, â€œTell her I love her.â€ Unable to refuse, Ellison struggles to find the girl the murdered boy loved. Too bad an epically bad blind date, a vindictive graffiti artist, and multiple trips to the emergency room keep getting in the way.

Worse, a killer has Ellison in his sights, her newly rebellious daughter is missing, and thereâ€™s yet another body in her hostas. Mother wonâ€™t be pleased.

Now Ellison must track down not one but two runaway teenagers, keep her promise to Bobby, and elude the killerâ€”all before her next charity gala committee meeting.

â€œMulhernâ€™s lively, witty sequel to The Deep End finds Kansas City, Mo., socialite Ellison Russell reluctantly attending a high school football gameâ€¦There she stumbles on a dying teenage boy covered in blood, who asks that she tell his girlfriend that he loves her. Ellison determines to learn the girlfriendâ€™s identity and deliver the message, plus find the boyâ€™s killerâ€¦If thatâ€™s not enough for one day, an unknown man turns up shot to death in her garden. Cozy fans will eagerly await Ellisonâ€™s further adventures.â€ â€“ Publishers Weekly

â€œThereâ€™s no way a lover of suspense could turn this book down because itâ€™s that much fun.â€ â€“ Suspense Magazine

â€œIn this excellent follow-up to her debut The Deep End, author Mulhern continues to depict the trappings of a privileged communityâ€¦ Readers who enjoy the novels of Susan Isaacs will love this series that blends a strong mystery with the demands of living in an exclusive society. Watching Ellison develop the strength of character to break through both her own and her societyâ€™s expectations is a sheer delight.â€ â€“ Kings River Life Magazine
â€œCleverly written with sharp wit and all the twists and turns of the best â€™70s primetime drama, Mulhern nails the fierce fraught mother-daughter relationship, fearlessly tackles what hides behind the Country Club faÃ§ade, and serves up justice in bombshell fashion. A truly satisfying slightly twisted cozy.â€ â€“ Gretchen Archer, USA Today Bestselling Author of Double Knot

â€œAs close to a perfect summer read as mystery fans are likely to findâ€¦a well-written, entertaining mystery filled with humor and complicated family relationshipsâ€¦I loved every minute of it.â€ â€“ Goodreads Reviewer

â€œWritten sincerely, with unforgettable one-liners including: â€œKizzi lived behind a curtain sewn from dry martinis.â€ There are many more to list, but I do not want to spoil the pleasure of unexpectedly encountering such gems tucked throughout the book. Thoroughly enjoyable.â€ â€“ Librarian, Jefferson-Madison Regional Library System
