Last weekend the Richmond Times-Dispatch reviewed five mysteries, including "Hiss of Death" by Rita Mae Brown.
About Brown's latest, the reviewer says: "Brown... reunites the reader with beloved characters, supplies a wealth of local color and creates a killer whose identity and crimes are shocking (in one case, particularly so)."
The Tucson Citizen reviewed 12 novels by women writers, including "The Four Ms. Bradwells" by featured author Meg Waite Clayton and "Hiss of Death" by featured author Rita Mae Brown and Sneaky Pie Brown.

In reviewing "Hiss of Death," the reviewer wrote: "As explained on the book’s cover, it takes a cat to write the purr-fect mystery. Indeed."
