From the Author

 If you’ve been waiting for a sign from the universe, this is it. Aliens have landed in Radio Springs — or at least, they’re stocking up on reading material before heading home. I caught them mid-abduction of Atomic Sunset (see photographic evidence below). Can't blame them. The soda's radioactive, the librarian’s suspicious, and the donkeys are smarter than half the town. So if you’re looking for a weird, witty, small-town mystery with a dash of government cover-up and a possibly psychic coyote… grab your copy before the mothership runs out of cargo space.

Instead, she ends up in a town that feels like a time warp on the fritz. There’s a suspicious librarian, a mechanic with too many maps and a sheriff who's itching...

This is an adult mystery title (writing as J.G.Macdonald) I’m thrilled to announce that Atomic Sunset is officially live! This book has been a labor of love (and mystery… and maybe a touch of radioactive soda). It’s set in a strange little desert town along Route 66, where the sunsets are suspicious, the locals are quirky, and there’s definitely something humming under the surface.If you enjoy cozy mysteries with a retro twist — think coyote footprints, motel gossip, and government secrets — I hope you’ll check it out.It’s available now in Kindle and paperback, with the audiobook hopefully not far behind.Thanks...
