Stone Patrick Releases New Thriller - the Fallen Body

Roanoke, TX -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/31/2014 --Suspense/thrillers don’t get much better than this. Wait for the weekend, grab your cozy chair and get ready to read. This book is about a modern day small-town lawyer, Taylour Dixxon, who is obliged to defend a New Jersey millionairess accused of murdering her husband. The case presents more than an innocent client. Both find themselves in danger as they search for the truth in this must read set in the beautiful hill country of Central Texas.

Small-town lawyer Taylour Dixxon meets Sarah Cockrell Baines, a New Jersey socialite and millionairess, and their budding friendship begins with promise. However, soon after they meet, Sarah is arrested for the murder of her husband. When Taylour volunteers to defend Sarah, she has no idea that her struggling solo law practice in the sleepy, fictional, small town of Marlinsville, Texas, will be turned upside down.

From a lovable, adolescent nephew who moves in with her, to a hired assassin who is determined to hide the truth, and a handsome Texas Ranger who becomes the object of affection in a love triangle between the two friends, Taylour’s life will never be the same.

During a recent promotion on Amazon, "The Fallen Body" reached #1 on Cozy Mysteries, #10 on Mysteries, and #127 overall when it was available for free. Over 2,200 versions of the e-book were downloaded in a three-day period!

Here’s what readers think, "...enjoyable to all persons who like mystery and suspense," and "This was a completely clean read, which I found refreshing," and "...fun to read a book that focused more on the people solving the crime rather than on the criminal," and "...left the reader quickly turning pages to find out what really happened and why".
