Crime Fiction with a Kiss

Monday, January 7, 2013



Today, I’m helping to spread the word on Carol Kilgore’s upcoming book, Solomon’s Compass. The story is crime fiction intertwined with romance – a good combination in my book. So here goes:-





The death of her beloved uncle, Randy Rankin, brings US Coast Guard Commander Taylor Campbell back to Texas to take care of his estate and find out if he really did bury his treasure. Jake Solomon’s job is to make sure Rankin’s killer doesn’t set his sights on CDR Campbell. Set along the Texas Gulf Coast, SOLOMON’S COMPASS is a story of love, loyalty, and the value of keeping a promise.





Carol Kilgore is an award-winning author of several published short stories and many essays and articles. Solomon’s Compass is her second novel, a blend of mystery, suspense, and romance she calls Crime Fiction with a Kiss – always at least one crime; always a love story. Carol and her Coast Guard husband live in San Antonio, Texas, with two herding dogs that like nothing better than pack time on the patio.

  15. This looks like a great book! Mysteries are so fun to read ans this one looks gripping! I have just finished Blood Land by R.S. Guthrie (rsguthrie.com) if anyone needs a new book to get into. His was really good, and I am sure Carol's will be great as well! Thanks for this post!
