		WHAT REVIEWERS ARE SAYING ABOUT MURDER IN METROPOLIS A well thought out mystery drawing the reader into the very lives of the townspeople, the suspects and the victims themselves. Written in a way that allows you to participate in the investigation, but let me warn you, no matter how much you think you have it all figured out, the ending to this one will surprise you. Excellent read, highly recommended. Shirley Johnson, Senior Reviewer, MidWest Book Review An unpredictable, strongly told story that will definitely make Cruse a favorite among police procedural readers...with an especial interest for fans who like things a touch of cozy. Four out of three badges. Cindy Lynn Speer, gottawritenetwork.com Book Reviewer I just finished reading Lonnie Cruse's debut novel, MURDER IN METROPOLIS. It's a thoroughly enjoyable book with a well-crafted plot and characters that this reader cared about from the first. Judy Egner, coziescapersandcrimes.com

						Praise for Murder Beyond Metropolis I always enjoy a Lonnie Cruse novel. She does her homework and gets the characters right. Capt. Massad Ayoob, Firearms Instructor/weapons expert The second installment in this highly acclaimed series featuring Sheriff Dalton is a humorous look at life as a small town sheriff, where investigating a crime is done under a microscope as the whole town watches and second-guesses your every move. Sheriff Dalton has a wry sense of humor that, at times, is the only thing that keeps him sane throughout this entire adventure. He will leave you looking forward to his next adventure. Kathy Thomason, Murder and Mayhem Book Club Lonnie Cruse brings back Sheriff Joe Dalton and an entertaining cast of characters in her second outing. This engaging whodunit will keep you twisting and turning until the shocking ending... Linda Pendleton, Firearms Instructor
