Review

"The title of this strong and surefooted book is apt: Miranda is enmeshed in a tense environment of conflicting cultures--Latino, white supremacist, Jewish, evangelical Christian, and Native American." Adam Woog, THE SEATTLE TIMES

From the Back Cover

"Isenberg forges a unique blend of literary elements to create something new--Northwest Noir--while deftly exploring the real challenges of diversity and acceptance that rile our nation. It's a novel that reads like incisive nonfiction." Rabbi Daniel A. Weiner, Senior Rabbi, Temple De Hirsch Sinai "Fast-paced yet serious, populated with quirky characters with plenty of depth, MURDER IN THE MELTING POT offers a feminist take on the contemporary West while providing a satisfying mystery that should appeal to all sexes. Jane Isenberg dishes up another winner." Johnny D. Boggs, Spur Award winning author. "Cozy overtones and a touch of romance are layered with the gritty realities of bigotry and intolerance in MURDER IN THE MELTING POT....This mystery features a flawed but charming and courageous sleuth and a ...deceptively dangerous cast of characters against the compelling backdrop of the Yakima Valley." Bailey Cattrell, author of the ENCHANTED GARDEN MYSTERIES. "What I like about a Jane Isenberg novel is that she deftly unveils insights into human character, grasps cultural differences and shares them with authenticity, brings landscapes to life, and her mystery plots are crisp, surprising and wise....MURDER IN THE MELTING POT is terrific. I read it straight through. You will too. Bravo!" Jane Kirkpatrick Award-winning author of ALL SHE LEFT BEHIND
