Deadly Dining

"This was a very good book. There were three separate cases, one murder and two civil cases. They were all quite interesting and it was a big surprise about the murder. I felt like I got to know Stan, Paula and Jodie. There was even a side story about Stan's personal life that was really a surprise. I would definitely recommend this series and want to read more of them. I like that it takes place in Dallas, where I live and I can recognize the street names and some of the locations." Clair Barfield - Goodreads 2/7/15

"BRAVO! BRAVO!! This is the first of the Stan Turner books I have read and it won't be my last(I ordered all the rest of them yesterday!) I loved the characters their lives and the plots that are packed into the story. I loved it all of it! what more can I say, except buy it! - DDTJ at Amazon

Courtroom drama, interlaced with complex characters, well-defined William Manchee’s return of his favorite lawyer, Stan Turner, in Deadly Dining, Stan Turner Mystery Volume 11. Populated with an impressive cast of remarkable characters, Manchee relies heavily on Turner and his law partner, Paula, as well as the law firm’s associate, Jodie. It is not a book easily devoured in one sitting if one wishes to savor the frequent twists and turns and/or unfolding story drama and depth that is revealed in piece-by-piece suspense. The underlying tale is driven by four customers sickened or murdered by poison in a Dallas Italian restaurant operated by Emilio Bellucci, who had previously obtained estate planning counseling from Turner. When a waiter, Ricardo Ricci, is charged, Turner’s firm picks up a new client. The whodunit begins. Plenty of depraved or flawed secondary characters provide a strong platform for the three well-drawn central characters to exhibit their brain power and heroics. There is a feast of struggles and conflicts. Intertwined are portions of overt and subversive sexuality, suspected betrayal, and a strong dose of well-meaning confusion. What else could you ask for except to find the earlier Stan Turner volumes yet unread? - Donna Berg, Authors Den 6-8-18
