“Stern weaves a suspenseful and intriguing story, and surprising revelations will keep readers guessing about the murderer’s identity. An absorbing and surprising mystery tale” ~Kirkus Reviews“The Wedding Crasher satisfies because it manages to be both nuanced and suspenseful. It lingers on the palate like a fine, full-bodied wine, long after the story reaches its startling conclusion.” ~D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review“Nikki Stern’s The Wedding Crasher possesses the claustrophobic menace that makes small-town crime so terrifying, with an ending you won’t forget. In Sam Tate she’s created a bona fide 21st century heroine with a wound as big as the city she left behind and a heart as genuine as the town she’s come to protect.” ~David Corbett, acclaimed award-winning author of The Long-Lost Love Letters of Doc HollidayA dead brunette dressed like a bride shows up in Pickett County, Tennessee, the latest victim of an elusive killer known as the Wedding Crasher.
