Virtual Author Talk with Nina Simon

Virtual workshop via Zoom

  You’re invited to join Nina Simon online as chats about her lighthearted whodunnit about a grandmother-mother-daughter trio of amateur sleuths, Mother-Daughter Murder Night.  Mother-Daughter Murder Night follows high-powered business woman Lana Rubicon. She has a lot to be proud of with the L.A. real estate empire she’s built. But when she finds herself trapped 300 miles north of the city with her adult daughter Beth and teenage granddaughter Jack, Lana is stuck counting otters instead of square footage—and hoping that boredom won’t kill her before the cancer does. Nothing brings a family together like a murder next door! When Jack happens upon a dead body while kayaking she quickly becomes a suspect in the homicide investigation, and the Rubicon women are thrown into chaos. Beth thinks Lana should focus on recovery, but Lana has a better idea–find the true murderer, protect her family, and prove she still has power! Nothing brings a family together like a murder next door.
