[Elizabeth's] skillful
prose, extraordinary and colorful character
development, inexplicable sensitivity to issues
such as mental and physical challenges, gentle
humor and literary finesse are astounding. These
qualities are expected from seasoned
professionals, yet a welcome rarity in such a
young wordsmith. In many ways, her fallible hero
and the motley crew he encounters resemble
individuals who actually inhabit Beth's
corporeal world; others are people she knows --
and I wish I knew. This novel maintains a rapid,
spellbinding pace and leaves the reader wanting
more. Now. Until then, pour a frosty brew,
slather on the sun screen, stretch out under a
shady tree and prepare to be scorched as you
spend the summer Too Close to Evil!! Janet Garey, Madison, Tennessee |

I found Too Close to Evil to be a wonderful suspense novel in the vein
of good old fashion murder mystery whodunnits
that kept me guessing right up to the last page.
The author has skillfully crafted characters
that are interesting and believable, and placed
them into a plot that twists and turns with
seemingly no way out. I find it refreshing that
the author has created something new and
exciting in a genre that has been mined of
innovation to exhaustion. Too Close to Evil is a
thrilling read that will leave you wanting more. Craig Combs, Atlanta, Georgia |

TOO CLOSE TO EVIL is an exciting, well-written mystery full of vivid
imagery. The descriptions of Nashville locations
give you the feel of being there. And despite
his many faults, Jared McKean strikes you as a
basically decent guy you'll want to hear more of
in future books. Highly recommended. Chester D. Campbell, Nashville, Tennessee |

This book grabs you right from the beginning, takes you on a
suspenseful ride full of twists and turns, and
leaves you wanting more at the end. Brett Bias, Nashville, Tennessee |

I found the book an easy read but captivating and suspenseful. The
characters are believable and complicated just
like real people. The author even includes
modern social issues that will have us
re-examining our positions on things like
homosexuality and family values. A must read!
Good job Beth. mussadiq77, Baltimore, Maryland |
