Milt Kovak

Susan Rogers Cooper has received rave reviews for her Sheriff Milt Kovak mystery series from Publishers Weekly, Booklist, and Kirkus Reviews. In Lying Wonders, Milt deals with some unfriendly faces from his past. As sheriff of Prophesy County, Milt must come to his ex-girlfriend's aid when her son, Trent, goes missing at the Seven Trumpets religious retreat. To make matters worse, when Milt arrives at the retreat, he finds the dead body of Trent's girlfriend.

All the good sheriff of Prophecy County, Oklahoma, wanted out of his well-earned vacation to Las Vegas was some fun and relaxation. Milt certainly didn't gamble on finding his own kin embroiled in murder and battery: but that's exactly what he's dealt in Vegas Nerve.

Susan Rogers Cooper's Milt Kovak mysteries are praised for their gentle humor and meticulous plots. The ninth entry in the series begins with Milt and the rest of Prophesy County celebrating the nuptials of deputies Emmett Hopkins and Jasmine Bodine. But during the revelry, the local bank is being cleaned out - and that's just the beginning of a bizarre crime wave Kovak must deal with.

Best-selling author Susan Rogers Cooper is renowned for creating wildly entertaining characters and perfectly orchestrated mysteries. In this lively - and side-splitting - entry in her Milt Kovak series, all manner of crazy happenings go down in and around Prophesy County, Oklahoma. Deputy Dalton Pettigrew travels to meet the woman making his heart go pitter-patter - but she turns out to be a man! And then a murder really shakes things up.
