Murder Undetected by Roxanne Dunn

           Two women. One driven by selfish desire, the other by selfless love.

 The moment psychologist Brittany Ann Thornton thinks she has her life all dialed in, her perfect little family falls apart and the FBI seizes all her assets. Trouble follows her from Seattle to Paris to the south of France where Viane Thibaudet, darling of a quaint hilltop town in Provence, has been getting away with murder. But when she attempts to poison her husband, Brittany steps up to stop her.

Our Review:  And so begins an exciting romp through France for a woman trying her best to regain a firm hold on both life and her professional future. The fates have other ideas and toss a few wrenches into the works in the forms of a lying, cheating spouse, an ambivalent graduate advisor, the typical rebellious teenage daughter, and a nasty adolescent serial killer. But those are only cracks in the sidewalk of life when it comes to Brit surviving the machinations of a woman who wears two faces.

Author Dunn follows Murder Unrehearsed, her first thriller for the Wild Rose Press, with a tightly written, interesting murder-suspense set in the luscious south of France with a cast of well-drawn, layered characters, a gutsy heroine and a really nasty bad guy.

On a scale of 1-5, Murder Undetected deserves a 7.
