ATLANTA - Aug. 20, 2016 - PRLog -- MuseItUp Publishing announces the latest release from seven-time author, Joan C. Curtis. Murder on Moonshine Hill is the second installment in the Jenna Scali mystery series. Available Tuesday, August 23, online at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and everywhere ebooks are sold.

About the book:

A quiet wedding turns deadly when murder interrupts the festivities.

Once Jenna decides to go to this wedding, she expects to dredge up old secrets and old hurts, and she expects to see people from her past, but she doesn't expect to stumble on a dead body.

Jenna's friend is arrested. The wedding is canceled. And Jenna's tendency to stick her nose where it shouldn't be leads her into the path of the killer.

Set in the serene mountains of North Carolina, Murder on Moonshine Hill is filled with suspense, humor, and a quirky cast of supporting characters.

BOOK REVIEW from Janna Hensinger:

"Just finished Murder on Moonshine Hill–great book!!!  I could not put it down.  I have spent my entire day reading it. The book was well written, held my attention, kept me guessing to the end.

The characters and story draw you in and keep you more involved with each page turned.  This is a definite 'do not miss reading' book.  You will thoroughly enjoy reading it!"

This new adventure in the mystery series with the young female sleuth, Jenna Scali, continues from the first in the series, e-Murderer. Both books promise to keep you glued to your seat until the last page.

About the Author:


Joan C. Curtis is an award-winning writer who has published 7 books and numerous stories. In her mystery/suspense novel, The Clock Strikes Midnight, we meet Janie Knox, a tormented young woman who escaped her home and family after a jury convicted her stepfather of killing her mother.

Her second mystery e-Murderer is the first in a series, starring Jenna Scali, a fairly normal young woman who happens to run into dead bodies. Again, this book captures the imagination of readers with all its twists and turns.

Both of Joan's books have won awards. The Clock Strikes Midnight won FIRST PLACE in Royal Palm Literary awards for Mainstream/Literary fiction and the Silver Medal in the Global eBooks Awards for 2015. The e-Murderer won FIRST PLACE in the Malice Domestic Grants Competition for new writers, and the Gold Medal in the Global eBooks Awards for 2016.

Joan has been an avid reader for as long as she can remember.  She reads all kinds of books, including women's fiction, mysteries, biography, and memoir.  Her passion as a reader lies closer to literary writing with a commercial bent. Joan says she writes books that she loves to read.

"I write about characters who remind me of myself at times and my sister at times, but never fully so. My stories are told from a woman's point of view. Characters drive my writing and my reading."

Having grown up in the South with a mother from Westchester County New York, Joan has a unique take on blending the southern traditions with the eye of a northerner.  She spent most of her childhood in North Carolina and now resides in Georgia.
