Saulnier's previous hardcover, Bad Seed (Mysterious press, 2/02), is a Featured Alternate of The Mystery Guild. It will be published in mass market in 3/03. Hip and funny, Saulnier's style recalls Jen Banbury's Like a Hole in the Head (Little, Brown and Company, 1998), and a starred review in Kirkus calls heroine Alex Bernier "delightful, " comparing her to Stephanie Plum, the main character in the eponymous New York Times bestselling mystery series (St. Martin's Press). Saulnier's previous Alex Bernier mysteries include The Fourth Wall (Mysterious Press, 1/01), Distemper (Mysterious press, 2000), and Reliable Sources (Mysterious Press, 1999). Beth Saulnier is well-known in the Ithaca, New York, area as a movie reviewer for the Ithaca Journal and a film commentator on local television. Reliable Sources was the number one bestseller in Ithaca, New York, in 1999.
