The Poisoned Martini‘s is privileged to be reading Duffy Brown’s forthcoming mystery novella, Dead Man Walker. This 4th book in the Consignment Shop Mystery series releases as an ebook on February 2, 2015 from Penguin books and their Berkley Prime Crime imprint.
A dead body is discovered in a bathtub and the discoverer turns to lawyer Walker Boone for help. The only problem is Walker’s own connection to the dead man in the tub, making him a possible suspect. Walker will need consignment shop owner Reagan Summerside “to help clear his name–and keep him alive…”
Following along as I review the novella LIVE!
This post will be updated (with time stamps) as I progress through the story and share my thoughts firsthand. See below for what I envision as a Live Read. In the meantime, check out my previously posted review of Brown’s 3rd Consignment Shop Mystery, Pearls and Poison, here.

What’s a Live Read?
A Live Read is where I review the book as I read it. It’s kind of like writing notes in the margin of a book as you go. After the initial post describing the selected book, I’ll update periodically during the Live Read until the final pages. I intend to avoid any spoilers and certainly won’t give away the ending. Once finished, I’ll give a summation of my overall thoughts. I encourage participation either during the Live Read and beyond. Even if you’ve read the chosen book or not, feel free to chime in with your thoughts about the book, author, or mysteries in general.
