The discovery of a rune stone on the campus of Bruck University threatens to disrupt the school's annual Renaissance Faire, the Festival of Knights. When the eccentric Professor Andrew Littlewort attempts to prove the stone is a genuine Viking relic, he stirs up a hornet's nest that leads to murder. Caroline Rhodes, RN, and Professor of History Carl Atwater track a killer without a conscience in the little town of Rhineburg, Illinois.

TO KILL A KING is available in print and ebook format with a NEW COVER. The cover shown here -- a cover showing a playing card -- represents an OLD OUT-OF-PRINT edition. Please look for TO KILL A KING with a cover showing a stethoscope and syringe. That is the NEW up-dated edition of the book. Thank you! This third book in the "Rhodes to Murder" series takes Caroline back to Ascension Hospital in Niles, a suburb of Chicago, where she worked before moving to the university town of Rhineburg, Illinois. Readers may think that some of the book's funnier scenes in the ER are too wild to be believable, but let me assure you they're based on actual incidents that I and other ER nurses observed during the course of our work. Think of them as tales from the medical edition of Ripley's Believe It Or Not. :)

To Kill A King

Literature & Fiction

Contemporary

When Caroline Rhodes agrees to return to Ascension Medical Center for the summer, she has no idea she'll be walking into an Emergency Room marked for murder. But two days after her arrival a female employee is found dead, smothered with a lavender silk pillow. Caroline's persistent questions concerning the murder earn her a warning from ER doc Chan Daley. "As me sainted mother used to say," quips the doctor, "man who stands beneath tail of elephant must prepare for much dung to drop on head." But Caroline is willing to risk the fallout when a second death results in the arrest of the ER's nurse manager. Determined to clear her best friend of a charge of murder, Caroline forms a strange three-way pact with an aging Mafia boss and the administrator of Ascension Medical Center. As if murder isn't enough, Caroline must investigate charges of sexual harassment against a doctor, while also coping with a heat wave that sends residents of suburban Niles, Illinois flocking to the hospital for relief. The last thing Caroline and the ER needs is the arrival of an irate cab driver with a dead passenger, a litter of hungry puppies, and a plastic shopping bag full of dead fish. Add to that a medical resident who can't stay on his feet and you're looking at the kind of problems that send most people scurrying for cover. But not Caroline Rhodes. Aided by her friends from the little town of Rhineburg, Illinois, the veteran ER nurse proves once again that attention to detail is the key to solving any crime.

The Scarecrow Murders

Hillard & Harris

It's a battle of the sexes in little Rhineburg, Illinois, when Bruck University's fledgling football team butts heads with female rodeo riders during Halloween Homecoming Days. The Bruck Bruins protest President Garrison Hurst's hiring of the Moore Sisters' Rodeo to perform in the school's new stadium the night before the Homecoming game. Joined on the picket line by the town fathers, the Bruins meet resistance from the women of Rhineburg who rally in support of their cowgirl sisters. ER nurse Caroline Rhodes worries when her son and his wife take opposite sides in the argument. Her worries grow when a football player is found dead in a rodeo bullpen and Martin Rhodes is charged with the young man's murder. Caroline looks to Professor Carl Atwater, Maddy Moeller, and the ladies of the Rhineburg Boarding House and Home for Gentle Women for help in catching a clever killer.
