First in the Cordelia Morgan Mystery series In the New Mexico "outback," someone is experimenting with a new designer drug developed to give fellows a little boost, if some of its nasty side effects... This description may be from another edition of this product.
The first leads to the second to the third and I'm hooked

See my review for The Woman Who Found Grace - the first book finished and I immediately wanted to read the next two. Now all we need is the fourth and it's a box set I know lots of people would enjoy. Maybe Christmas next year!
An Exciting Mystery

A note I sent to the Authoress:Bett,I meant to tell you a few weeks ago that I had completed "Woman Who Knew Too Much." I have "Moon" on order now. I'm not qualified to write a book review but just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this book. One of the few I've read from cover to cover. I am familiar with the Pecos river down here in our part of the country and your description fit so perfectly. I could see, hear and smell it vividly in my mind as I read. I really enjoyed the charactors. Loved Kit, and naturally, Cord. Sheriff Juan (Sam Elliott) was great, as well as, Metz and Marguerite. I could just visualize how sorry Jaz was and why no one could really miss him. The cats flying in all directions when startled brought a verbal laugh. My wife just looked over at me and wondered "what in the world........". I felt like I was on the back of the horse with you when we went to Jaz's shack. I saw and smelled all that stuff too. I was sad about Jones. (Old Yeller?) My norm is getting up between 3:30 and 4 am each morning, pouring a cup of coffee and go to the computer to tend to emails. Well when I got the book, I would have the coffee, read about an hour or so, then go to the computer. Toward the end, I couldn't wait to get the computer stuff done and go back to the book. It would make a great movie. Looking forward to "Moon". Kenn

Great Mystery! Lots of fun. One step beyond the traditional woman sleuth; mystery novel. A new great character and a unique storyline. I enjoyed the mystery of the woman working behind the scene; lurking in the shadowds. And a woman who knows and enjoys all her electronic toys and gadgets. Do not miss"THE WOMAN WHO RODE TO THE MOON" A thinking woman book. Enjoy
Greater depth than the traditional mystery

The author has a real talent for creating place--you feel the storms, sweat in the heat, and choke on the dust of the southwest. Plus she has created some unique characters with original motivations and insights and her plot, though complicated, is entirely believable. Whoever said the heroine doesn't appear until well into the book obviously didn't read it very carefully--and the revelation of who the heroine is is part of the fun of the book--a thinking person's mystery novel--
Regarding Booklist's review

Hey wait a minute--Whitney Scott says Cordelia Morgan doesn't appear until way into the book, but the very first chapter is hers, told from her point of view! I really enjoyed this mystery. It was well-written and the characters were so intriguing. I would love the author to come out with a book told completely from Cord's point of view--what a GREAT character! The storyline and characters gripped me the entire time and what a beautiful last chapter. Every true lover of mysteries and/or the Southwest should read this book. You will be left well-satisfied.
