Book launch: Murder in Plane Sight by Julie Holmes

Posted on March 18, 2019 by Ilsa Rey

Aircraft mechanic Sierra Bauer finds a dead body in her inspection plane. Evidence pointing to Sierra causes Detective Quinn Moore to peg her as a suspect despite his attraction to her, forcing her to prove her innocence. She and Quinn must expose a network of money and deceit threatening the aviation world before Sierra becomes the next victim.

Short Excerpt: Headlights glared in the rearview mirror. Sierra Bauer slowed, but not enough. Her car slid around the turn onto the service drive that ran past the Range Airlines maintenance hangar on the western side of the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport. She steered into the skid, regained control. Cursed the timing of the snow.

The idiot stuck to her backside like duct tape, too damn close even for Minneapolis drivers in these two inches of fresh January snow. Sierra considered hitting the brakes.

A deep rumble, and her tailgater passed her.

A pickup truck.

In the glow of her headlights, she identified the color.

Black.

Her breath caught.

An outline of a pale rectangle peeked from the layer of snow on the rear bumper.

Her heart stuttered. Raced.

It can’t be his truck. How would he know where I am?

Sounds intriguing, no? Find Murder in Plane Sight on Amazon and Barnes and Noble and wherever books are sold.

Thanks for introducing me to Julie and her novels. They sound like something I’d enjoy, having always liked a good mystery– escapism at its best.

  No doubt they won’t disappoint! Only disappointment is you’ll have to wait, probably a year, for the next one!

    A bit of romance added to the mix never hurt either. 😉 Good thing Julie has both!

    Will be reading my wife’s copy. 🙂 Will look for Vikings references anyway…your statement may be a red herring.

  That’s the hard part about being a writer: we love to read but finding the time around writing is also hard.

The best advice I ever received from a literary agent was, “hook the reader early.” I feel like Julie did just that!
