The Ghosts of Lovely Women (The Teddy Thurber Mysteries)
I'm a Chicago area writer who debuted in 2006 with THE DARK BACKWARD. Since then, I've started two mystery series on Kindle: The MADELINE MANN mysteries and the TEDDY THURBER mysteries. Madeline Mann's third mystery, ONE FOOL AT LEAST, just debuted on Kindle.
I am a member of Sisters in Crime, Mystery Writers of America, and Romance Writers of America. I blog each week on Poe's Deadly Daughters and on my own blog, Mysterious Musings.
Like Teddy Thurber, I am a bibliophile who teaches high school English. I live with my husband, two teenage sons, an aging beagle named Simon and three distant cats named Pibby, Mr. Mulliner, and Rose.

Here's the set-up:
Who killed Jessica Halliday? She was a nineteen-year-old college
student with a bright future before her. No one at her former high
school can imagine who would want to murder this charismatic young
woman; but Teddy Thurber, Jessica's former teacher, thinks the answer
might lie in a book that Jessica had given her months before.
Teddy begins to try to follow the trail of clues Jessica left behind in order to find the truth about her former student's death; in the process she must delve into the literature that Jessica loved best, and what she finds reveals unsavory details about other students, teachers, and even Jessica's family.
Helping Teddy is the new history and psychology teacher, Derek Jonas, who ends up having secrets of his own . . . . As her search for Jessica intensifies, she must also deal with the unwelcome advances of an old boyfriend, complicating her life even further.
Teddy's persistence puts her and the ones she loves in danger; but she can do no less than try to avenge the murder of a promising young woman whose future success had been assured.
At her side throughout this mystery is her faithful beagle, P.G.

One Reviewer Notes:
...Ghosts of Lovely Women, by Julia Buckley, is a book of merit, not only for its entertainment value but for its thought-provoking theme. It strikes a point that young people really do care. That they can be independent thinkers and solve complicated riddles of adult life. The light romance that intertwines this book is wonderfully created. Teddy's beagle dog, P.G., adds touches of home-like humor, and, if you are a reader like me, the many references to great literature, from Shakespeare to Dostoyevsky's 'Crime and Punishment' is an added welcome bonus!
