Available Now
The first release of the gripping, crime series about Rose McDougal is available now.
Packed with action, An Unwelcome Arrangement is both gripping and heart-warming.
In the tough-to-break-into crime fiction market, a depressed, overweight, out-of-work school teacher in the rundown mill city of Nashua, New Hampshire, seems a chancy protagonist for a debut novel. But Joe Benson puts the pieces together and makes it work. A suicide attempt, old debts in need of repayment, bad-ass criminals, and a Vietnam vet friend makes An Unwelcome Arrangement a tasty, bubbling stew.
“The characters are interesting, the story line is compelling and the plot will hook you early and keep your attention in this page turner.”
-Tim D
