Critics Review
“In She Didn’t Stand a Chance, Stacie Grey combines classic mystery elements (a sprawling family comprised of wealthy misfits; a shocking will; members of ‘the help’ who know more than they should) with a contemporary setting and effervescent tone. The result is a freshly contemporary mystery I inhaled as though it were a beloved Agatha Christie novel. Extra points for featuring an architectural monstrosity of a dwelling, too…. Begin this one at your own risk! You’re not going to want to stop.” – Kemper Donovan, USA Today-bestselling author of Loose Lips and The Busy Body
“For She Didn’t Stand a Chance’s engaging outsider Gertie, the inhospitable and deadly desert is nothing compared to the suspects trapped with her at her dead father’s estate. Clever, atmospheric, and sizzling with suspense, this book is an addictive binge.” – Heather Chavez, author of Before She Finds Me and What We’ll Burn Last
“The brutal desert heat meets a coldblooded killer in this taut mystery from Stacie Grey. A Palm Springs setting, rich people behaving badly, and the laugh-out-loud family dysfunction made this a winner for me. I couldn’t put this book down.” – Joshua Moehling, USA Today bestselling author of And There He Kept Her and Where the Dead Sleep
