Woke Up Dead - Dean L Hovey;D.L. Dixen

Sergeant CJ Jensen is adjusting to life as a new homeowner in Pine County when the Sheriff's Office receives a call about a bar patron who never woke up after a night of sleeping it off in a local establishment's back room. In the process of death notifications, CJ and Pam learn of his connection to one of the most notorious criminal Pine County families, a drug smuggling operation and his own past life transgressions. How does a Beaver Dam fit into this mystery and will Riley be successful at another undercover assignment?

Praise for Skidded and Skunked - "I never expected the twists and turns in this book. It seems D.L Dixen has seen some things in her former life before becoming an author. I couldn't put it down! Super easy read that will keep you reading and waiting for what will come next!" - J.R.

Editorial Review by S. Peters Davis

Book number 13 in the Pine County Mystery Series drew me along until the very end, including the Epilogue. CJ Jensen, Pam Ryan, Sandi Maki, Riley Sanders, Floyd Swenson, and the rest of the characters, established or new to the series, made quite a stirring story of murder, drugs, domestic abuse, money laundering, and more, with the sheriff's department's personal lives included as well. The main characters drive the adventure throughout, with more interesting facts about each introduced along the way. An addictive series to read, I'm so looking forward to book number 14.
