A Chat With Kris Neri
A Chat with kris neri by Mary Keenan for Dastardly Deeds, June 2000.I Love Lucy meets Murder She Wrote itsa phrase
http://www.interlog.com/~maire/kris.htm

Extractions: "I've always loved screwball, madcap comedies," Neri admits. "Noel Coward and Oscar Wilde are great influences. And I especially love the way Wilde was able to slip a little truth in with the laughter, sort of like the sugar coating on a pill. In the next book, DEM BONES REVENGE, Tracy even alludes to what it's like going through life playing Ethel to her mother's Lucy." Neri is referring, of course, to amateur sleuth Tracy Eaton, who is no slouch as Lucy herself - at least, not judging by her antics in the Agatha-nominated REVENGE OF THE GYPSY QUEEN. Tracy, a successful mystery writer who longs to solve a real-life crime, made her first appearance in one of Neris forty published short mysteries. Titled L.A. Justice, the story won Neri her first Derringer and prompted her to try her hand at a full-length novel. "Looking back on it now, it was a critical turning point in my career." Its not hard to see why. Though Neri is a gifted short story writer whos perfected the art of the surprise ending and has a tremendous range of narrative and character styles, Tracy stands out of the crowd. For one thing, she loves life and doesnt let convention hold her back. And for another, shes got a distinctly Sam Spade-esque, wiseass style. I asked Neri about Raymond Chandler.

http://www.crescentblues.com/3_5issue/dem_bones.shtml

Extractions: Whoever first said, "Success is the best revenge?" knew their stuff! Kris Neri pens another winner with Dem Bones' Revenge , marrying amateur sleuthing, Hollywood scandals and long-buried secrets with her own masterful blend of prose and dialogue. Beginning her book with quotes from George Santayana ("Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.") and B.B. King ("Nobody loves me but my mother and she could be jiving, too"), Neri sets the tone for a top-notch mystery. Mystery author and celebrity's daughter, Tracy Eaton starts her day off with less of a whimper and more of a scream. Her editor delivers the upsetting news that Tracy's latest book, Deadly Shadows , might be rejected. The short time allowed for the necessary revisions sends Tracy into a panic. While the faxed pages from her editor continue to drop to the floor from the machine, Tracy's sometimes-stuffy attorney husband, Drew, can't find his lucky tie as he readies himself for another career-making trial. 156825077-0 Things only get worse when Drew's oddball Uncle Philly tries involves himself in the morning's problems, and the local contractor shows up to work on remodeling the closets. Then the final shoe drops: Tracy's movie-star diva mother calls with the news that she has been accused of murdering sleazebag celebrity attorney Vince Sperry the plaintiff opposing Drew in his big case.

Extractions: HOMEPAGE NEWSLETTER Kris Neri Although she'd been scribbling in journals for years, Kris Neri waded into the writing pool slowly. She got her start when her husband suggested she write a humorous account of his underwhelming success as an amateur, middle-aged, middle-of-the-pack triathlete. The piece was promptly accepted and though the magazine omitted her byline, they paid her for it.. That was all it took. Kris fired off more spec pieces to other magazines and they all sold as well, one for a considerable sum. Excited by the possibility of a new career, Kris told everyone who would listen, "This is gonna be a snap," and then she went on to receive resounding rejections on the next dozen or so pieces she tried. Eventually, she secured nearly sixty nonfiction credits in such magazines as Entrepreneur Runner's World Cooking Light Food and Wine Swim , and many others, writing primarily on the subjects of psychological motivation and fitness, areas she knew nothing about. The lifelong mystery lover yearned to write mystery fiction, however. Comfortable with the short form, Kris initially wrote mystery short stories, garnering credits in countless publications and anthologies in the US and overseas. She has now published fifty short stories, two of which won the Derringer Award. One of her Derringer Award winners, "L.A. Justice," introduced unconventional mystery writer Tracy Eaton and her eccentric movie star mother, Martha Collins, in a daffy little tale of murder, mobsters and the hiding away of a body. Readers responded so favorably to Tracy and her off-kilter world, that Kris put them into her first novel

DEM BONES' REVENGE By Kris Neri
DEM BONES' REVENGE by kris neri A Tracy Eaton Mystery, No. kris neri entertainsher new fans with another outstanding, wellplotted mystery!
http://www.myshelf.com/mystery/01/dembonesrevenge.htm

Extractions: Buy a Copy Dem Bones Revenge is the second mystery in the Tracy Eaton Mystery Series. If you havent read her first mystery Revenge of the Gypsy Queen, I highly recommend it. Both books are memorable reads. In starting Dem Bones I found Ms. Neri gets to the mystery pretty quick, and what I have come to love about her mysteries is how she does it. The interaction and dialog of her characters are so entertaining that the story just flows by. Some of the characters are more likeable than others, but they are all too funny to be aggravating. At the beginning of some of the chapters are movie scenes from Martha Collins movies. They poetically fit each chapter and Ms. Neri shows her funny side here as well. Kris Neri entertains her new fans with another outstanding, well-plotted mystery! The storyline led me to and fro. I felt as busy as Tracy, and I was sitting down! Her humor is wonderful; I found myself laughing out loud a lot! The storyline is always moving, never a dull moment, and its over before you know it. I came away a satisfied reader; no disappointments, wishing, or wonderingwell except when the next Tracy Eaton mystery would be out. Kris Neris wit is never ending, nor is her talent for good mysteries.
REVENGE OF THE GYPSY QUEEN By Kris Neri
REVENGE OF THE GYPSY QUEEN by kris neri A Tracy Eaton Mystery, No. kris neribrings a wonderfully witty new series to the contemporary mystery genre.
http://www.myshelf.com/mystery/01/revengeofgypsyqueen.htm

Extractions: Buy a Copy Kris Neri brings a wonderfully witty new series to the contemporary mystery genre. The debut delightfully introduces the series characters in a humorous, hectic way. The lead character and sleuth is Tracy Eaton, a mystery writer with an optimistic outlook on life. Her husband Drew is an attorney and her parents are eccentric Hollywood stars that liven up the storyline. As the mystery begins, Tracy is discussing what has already happened, but not in detail. She then takes the reader back to the beginning and later picks the story back up where the reader came in. There is nothing confusing about this at all because it is done in an amusing manner. Revenge of the Gypsy Queen is told in the first person by the lead character. Usually, when a story is written in the first person, I feel the story is being told to me. Not this time. Tracy's voice made me feel included in this madcap menagerie. It was a wonderful experience.
