About The Devil in Merrivale
Murder isn’t the usual order of business in the little town of Merrivale, Tennessee, so the brutal stabbing death of popular high school student Denise Davis sends a shock through the community. Sheriff Cas Larkin is determined to find the killer, and the last thing he needs is distractions like the increasing reports of missing cattle and other livestock.
But as he digs deeper, Cas uncovers another mystery–a strange “club” the members are afraid to talk about, and for good reason. One of the recruits is brutally beaten when he refuses to take the club’s activities seriously. He also refuses to talk about those activities–until they turn turn deadly.
There’s something dark and sinister going on in Merrivale, and if Cas can’t figure out what it is and put a stop to it, there’ll be the devil to pay.

Looking forward to this, Jackie! How can I find out where you’ll be blogging each day?
Thanks for your comments, Maria! All of Jackie’s blog stops will be posted here before the tour starts. I hope you follow her tour and give her support…she’d really appreciate it.
Jackie – This schedule looks grueling but productive and a wonderful opportunity for you and your book,which looks fantastic. Wish I had a publisher who’d get behind me like this. Your on a great course here and while it will take a lot of effort, do slow down enough to enjoy it all.
Jackie,
This is so exciting! I can hardly wait for your tour to begin. I hope to follow you all the way!
Best of luck,
Pat Browning
Robert: Never fear, everybody’s got a guardian angel. Sometimes we are just to busy to listen to them – him, her, or it. ha!
As for all this activity – nothing you like to do as much as I like to write can be called WORK – time consuming maybe, but no work.
Thanks for coming by, and plese go with me on this tour, I love hearing from people and keeping in touch.
Jackie
Pat: How wonderful to hear from you, I’m watching the weather map knowing you in Okla are getting the storms before we do if Texas doesn’t get into the act LOL.
Stay warm in side with a good book and a cup of coffee,
Love and best and Happy New year,
Jackie
Good morning everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR! Your comments have really given me a big smile to start the year on – go with me from now to the end of my virtual tour and keep in touch. One of the very best things about writing is meeting new people – readers, writrs, and sharing. Hope all your Christmases were merry and filled with love and good luck to all of us in 2010 :-)
Hi, Jackie,
Your novel sounds great! Looks like you’re going to be very busy.
Best of luck,
Jacqueline
Hi Jackie,
This is a great way to get the information out there in cyberland about your books. You are a very talented writer and your characters are all quirky, off beat souls who take the reader on adventures with many twists and turns. I love the southern flavor of your books and the way you incorporate the surrounding area into your characters and plots.
Keep those books coming and good luck with this and other tours!
Jackie,
The book sounds fantastic. Can’t wait to read it. Where can we purchase it? I’m one of your many fans!
L. C.
Hi L.C., click on the title in the first paragraph and it’ll take you to where you can buy it. Thank you!
L.C. Wonderful to hear from you, hope to hear from some more Five Star authors and SinC members too. Please come back and enjoy the tour with me :-) Some really great blog spots here.
Jackie
Hello, Jackie,
I’ve been learning a lot about this virtual book business from your posts on the FiveStar site. SInce I mostly lurk, I’ve been soaking up all the ideas and discussion and really appreciate how much you and the others share. I love the excerpts of your novels I’ve read and have them on my wish-list for my local library.
Best,
Susan Oleksiw
