Praise for the Galveston Hurricane Mystery Series "Delightful historical mystery series with a touch of the paranormal." Publisher's Weekly "I am a fifth generation of BOI's (Born on the Island) of Galveston. My family withstood the 1900 hurricane . . . . the miasma of the aftermath which Ms. Still recounts sometimes makes me think she was there . . . . Do yourself a favor and read the books!" Frances Powell, society columnist for The Daily News (Galveston County, Texas) "Years ago I told my agent I wanted to write a mystery set at the time of the great Galveston storm. I never did, and now I don't have to, thanks to Amanda Still, who's writing a dandy series with that very setting. You can't go wrong." Bill Crider, Texas author and two-time winner of the Anthony Award
