Customer Reviews

WoW! Corruption, betrayal...Loved this book!

Protagonist Audrey Wilson is encouraged by childhood friend Norma Jean Strange to take a government position in order to be a shield for Norma Jeans embezzelement. Norma Jean is murdered and Audrey is implicated in the crime. I loved this story of romance, mystery and betrayal. The characters are well-rounded and the villians are deliciously dastardly and makes readers long for more. The ending is unexpected and delightful. I will certainly check out the rest of this exciting mystery series. READ-ALL-ABOUT-IT BookClub gives this one a HighRecommend! High

There was too much gratuitous sex in the first installment.

But Accrual Way To Die is a strong intricately woven tale with a sweet love story to boot! I'm happy that I gave this author a second chance.Audrey Wilson is a bad judge of character and when she accepts a job to work with her childhood friend who eveybody else seems to know is no good, she ends up paying for her naivete in a very big way.The sole reason for her "friend" hiring her was to hang an embezzlement scheme on her. When she is later murdered everybody, including Audrey's new love Marshall Fixx thinks she's the killer.This is an enjoyable read as Audrey pludges deeper into a web of delicious deceipt.Hail, Hail, C.M. Miller!

Audrey Wilson is back!

Accrual Way to Die marks the return of financial planner, Audrey Wilson. This time around Audrey is smack in the middle of the mystery surrounding the murder of her childhood friend, Norma Jean Strange. Audrey had been working as a highly paid consultant to Norma Jean, who was the finance director for Rosemont, the African-American township in which they both live. Audrey is shocked when Norma Jean tells her that she suspects that one of the Rosemont board members has been stealing. But before Norma Jean has a chance to meet with Audrey to go over her findings, she's brutally murdered in her office. Audrey's shock turns to horror when she discovers that it was Norma Jean who was stealing from the township and she'd set Audrey up to take the fall. Audrey finds herself without an alibi for the time of Norma Jean's murder and all the evidence points straight to her!As the clues and a strong motive pile up against Audrey and even her friend police detective Rob Hollingsworth questions her innocence, help comes in the form of handsome attorney Marshall Fixx. A newly divorced Marshall has moved into the office down the hall from Audrey's and though their first meeting is anything but promising, Marshall and Audrey find themselves drawn to each other as Marshall acts as Audrey's attorney in her fight to prove her innocence. But when a shocking new piece of evidence falls into Marshall's hands he also has questions about Audrey's innocence. Audrey finds herself on the brink of losing it all unless the real killer is found soon! Though the reason for Norma Jean's betrayal of Audrey is never clearly explained, C.M. Miller's vivid characters, realistic dialogue, and a shocking plot twist make Accrual Way to Die a must read for mystery fans.

Accrual Way To Die

I just finished reading Accrual Way to Die. It was a real page turner. The charters and dialoge were very believable and I really loved the plot twist. The relationship between Audrey Wilson and her sister Renita was great. The way the two interact with one another reminds me of my own relationships with my sisters. I have read other books by C.M. Miller, I like her style of writing but with this latest instalment she really flows which I find would be particulary dificult to do given the various twist throughout the book. But Ms. Miller really knows how to pull you into her story line which is never overly complected or hard to follow. Accrual Way to Die will leave you wanting more of the main charater Audrey Wilson and more of C.M. Miller!

Wonderful new mystery writer!

I loved Accrual Way To Die! It's a book with nearly every sin in the book and Audrey is the innocent victim caught in a whirlwind of embezzlement, deceit, and murder.First, her backstabbing friend sets her up as the fall guy for this major theft ring at the place where she works. She can barely absorb this when the friend gets killed and everybody thinks Audrey did it. With everyone turning their back on her, she is forced to figure out who the real criminals are. There are lots of twists and turns, plenty of danger and the pages keep turning and turning!
