Welcome to Radio Springs
Posted by BackPack Books on
Ts is an adult mystery title (writing as J.G. Macdonald)
Where the soda’s suspicious, the donkey has a fan club, and Jane just wants to photograph some lizards.
Jane Dougherty never meant to stay long in Radio Springs. She was heading through the Arizona desert with a camera and a plan—stop for a day or two, snap some wildlife photos, maybe help her cousin catalog lizards for a biology grant.
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 to retire. Also? Someone’s dead. Probably murdered.
As one early reader put it:
"Radio Springs is the kind of book that sneaks up on you—quirky, smart, and full of desert heat and sharp turns. At first, it feels like a cozy mystery with a touch of road trip charm, but it quickly veers into something far more bizarre and addictive."
Which is exactly what happens to Jane.
She checks into the Atomic Sunset Motel. And just like that, her desert detour becomes a full-blown conspiracy.
Atomic Sunset: A Route 66 Mystery is available now.
Come for the scenery. Stay for the murder.
