Meet Underground Author Jinx Schwartz

USA Today Best-Selling Author Jinx Schwartz is best known for her fabulous Hetta Coffey Mysteries. Her series is still going strong fifteen books in and with the popularity of sassy Texan, Hetta at the helm of each story, I'm certain there will be more books to come in this wonderful series. 

Last December, Jinx wrapped up the first year of the Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles with Born and Bred Texan. We were introduced to Blue Bonet, a recent widow who returns to her hometown of Magnolia Bluff. And of course, murder and mayhem find its way into Blue's life. This year, Jinx is rounding out the Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles for 2023 with her release of Texas Summers Are Murder, book 20 in the series. 

In her new book, we get to check in with Blue Bonet as she becomes involved in trying to help clear the name of one of Magnolia Bluff's long-time citizens of a murder charge. She and her best friend, Gloria, stick their noses in where some think they don't belong and soon find themselves in more danger than they bargained for.

Jinx Schwartz has written twenty books, including her most recent release, Just Like That, book 15 in the Hetta Coffey Mystery Series. A ninth-generation Texan, Jinx has lived and worked all over the globe. Much like the protagonist in her mystery series, she navigated her boat in the Sea of Cortez for thirty years. Nowadays, she spends her time between Arizona and Mexico. But now she mostly navigates using her RV, more affectionately known as her land yacht and she's not afraid to use it. 

Texas Summers Are Murder is available for preorder and will be released on Wednesday December 20th. You can purchase it NOW by clicking here: Amazon. And you can learn more about Jinx and all of her books on her website: JinxSchwartz.com

Here is the blurb for the book:

Blue Bonet, a well-known watercolorist in the Texas Hill Country, looks forward to a peaceful summer of painting. She has a backlog of commissions to complete and believes her studio on the lake is the perfect workplace. However, her small hometown of Magnolia Bluff has an astonishing number of murders, and this summer is no different. When a murder occurs in the park, the small-town police grab a harmless drunk known as Fergus. Blue and her best friend, Gloria, come to Fergus's defense. This move draws the ire of some who want to see Fergus tarred and feathered. But as they snoop to find the real murderer, Blue and her friends unwittingly put themselves in the crosshairs of a dangerous criminal. Join them in their struggle to bring the true culprit to justice and clear Fergus's name.

The Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles is a unique multi-author crime fiction series that began is 2022. The nine books released in the first year were so well received that the authors decided to continue the series into 2023. 

As the year closes with book 20 in the series, we are hard at work putting together all the mysterious shenanigans that will invade the small town of Magnolia Bluff during 2024. The fun begins again in February when CW Hawes releases book 21.

The award-winning writers who pen the stories for this little town in the Texas Hill Country are as diverse as the stories they've written for this superb series. But we all have one thing in common - the love of a good mystery.
