Murder
at the Luther
By Kathleen Kaska
It’s New Year’s Eve, 1952. Texas politicians are backslapping and ringing in ’53 at the historic Luther Hotel on the Texas Coast. Reporter Sydney Lockhart is there covering the festivities. The celebration turns sour when Sydney finds herself dancing with a dead man. With her fingerprints on the murder weapon and a police chief with his own agenda, Sydney ushers in the New Year behind bars. Soon there is another body, more damning fingerprints, and a crazy Cajun who’s been paid to feed Sydney to the alligators. Things get worse when cousin Ruth comes to town with a problem even Sydney can’t solve.
Kathleen Kaska is the author of the Sydney Lockhart hotel-murder mystery series. She has stayed at the Luther Hotel so many times it feels like home. The largest book group in the country, The Pulpwood Queens and Timber Guys Book Club, chose her first book, Murder at the Arlington, as a bonus book. Kathleen is also the author of three mystery-trivia books.

“Smart, sassy, and sexy have a new poster girl: Sydney Lockhart. Whether she’s running from thugs through the Texas marshes or tossing back cocktails with a crazy cousin, Murder at the Luther will entertain. It’s a solid mystery wrapped in lots of humor and excitement.”—Suzanne Arruda, author of the award-winning Jade del Cameron mystery series
"Kathleen
Kaska’s book is a neatly written, fast-paced and
entertaining thriller. Her central character, Sydney
Lockhart, is a feisty, strong and believable heroine,
embroiled in a charmingly nostalgic murder-mystery,
reminiscent of the classic Agatha Christie style
whodunits that would also transfer successfully to
stage and screen."—Suspense Magazine
