From Friend of the Devil, shortlisted for the Anthony Award for Best Anthology

"G.M. Malliet's arch tone and wry humor make her a writer to be treasured." - Julia Spencer-Fleming, New York Times bestselling author

When the town mayor is found dead in a seedy roadside hotel, Sheriff Alex Harriman quickly realizes someone wanted the truth buried with him. Harriman has only a few clues - a staged crime scene, a cache of compromising photos, and a victim whose past reaches back to a dusty winery in Cucamonga.

Part police procedural, part small-town noir, Pride of Cucamonga follows a pragmatic sheriff as he navigates tangled loyalties, uncovering a scandalous secret sure to ruin lives. Taut, wry, and humane, this short mystery explores the secrets hidden behind closed doors, and the lengths people will go to keep those secrets hidden.

Perfect for readers who like character-driven mysteries and atmospheric coastal settings.

A short read, ideal for one long commute or an evening on the porch.

AI narration is HORRIBLE! And disappointed writing of GM Maillet who i usually like

I'd give it a -5 review if I could! Virtual narration is not something I'd ever buy. Story was disappointing too!

AI Narrated is awful

AI narration is awful. Couldn't stand to listen to this story.
A big turn off.
I love G.M. Malliet's work and listen to her audios all the time.
But this AI narration is a bad idea
