Let the Murderer Say Amen

Praise for the Psychics and Soul Food Mystery Series by Carolyn Marie Wilkins:

“Wilkins — jazz pianist, Reiki master, spiritual medium — is also a talented writer, as demonstrated by her mystery series set in the 1920s that features the war widow Nola Ann Jackson….A fast-paced jaunt that touches on race, religion and even romance, aided occasionally by Nola’s own psychic powers.” – The New York Times Book Review (Sarah Weinman) on Let the Murderer Say Amen

“The historical scene is deeply described, with spot-on details of Prohibition, the Great Migration, and soul food, making 100 years ago feel as recent as yesterday. Fans of Walter Mosley, Eleanor Taylor Bland, and Attica Locke will appreciate the fresh voice of this emerging crime writer.” —Library Journal on Murder at the Wham Bam Club

“Wilkins delivers on all fronts, presenting readers with a brain-teasing puzzle, a memorable heroine, and a well-drawn setting. Mystery fans who like their whodunits with a supernatural twist will enjoy themselves.” —Publishers Weekly on Murder at the Wham Bam Club

“Culturally rich and full of period detail, this mystery has everything including good food, music, and a paranormal touch.” —Valerie Burns, author of A Cup of Flour, A Pinch of Death on Murder at the Wham Bam Club

“Fast-paced, scandalous— Nola is a detective to watch.” —Vanessa Riley, award-winning author of Island Queen and The Lady Worthing Mysteries on Murder at the Wham Bam Club

“A powerful, impressive, and entertaining debut with well-developed, diverse, and unforgettable characters. The plotline, descriptions of the characters, and dialogue are so real, it’s hard to believe that this is a work of fiction. If you only read a few books a year, make this one of them.” —Mary Monroe, New York Times bestselling author on Murder at the Wham Bam Club

“Offers readers a unique peek at small-town Black life during the 1920s in a mid-western accent—with mysticism and spells thrown in for an intriguing twist.” —Valerie Wilson Wesley
