Introducing The Killer Enigma – Day 1

BLOG POST

ABOUT THE Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles

What is a multi-author crime novel series?” The various authors posed this question to CW Hawes when he proposed the idea to our fellow Underground Authors.

Underground Authors initially collaborated on a short story anthology using a picture of a boat as the focal point for individual tales. CW had the vision to take the multiple perspectives of a single focus to the next level. A multi-author cozy mystery series occurs when a group of authors decides to write a series of novels about a small town in Texas. In the case of the Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles, the creatives built a fictional town for each of the books throughout the series. Each book is a standalone reading experience.

An author establishes their characters and roles in the town, including a café owner, newspaper editor, sheriff, and more. The people created by other authors may be used by subsequent authors but not killed. The action occurs in the beautiful little Texas Hill Country town of Magnolia Bluff. Nine authors delivered nine different perspectives of the town in 2022 in their genres. The authors grew to twelve strong in season two of the 2023 cozy mysteries. Season three begins in January 2024.

Each author writes in their preferred genre to allow readers to experience humor, dark dilemmas, suspense, romance, thrills, and spills — told through good storytelling. These stories will keep readers awake past their bedtime, trying to find out whodunit. Stay tuned.

The Killer Enigma is our contribution to season two of the Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles. The story begins with our main characters, JJ and Jo, trying to have a quiet anniversary dinner in their hometown of Sao Paulo, Brazil, at their favorite restaurant Mama Elise’s Ristorante. Being rich or famous means, social media mobsters always want a story from you.

BOOK BLURB

Enough is Enough – JJ roars when the Paparazzi wrecked their dinner

JJ and Jo realize privacy doesn’t exist for them. They return to Magnolia Bluff to check on their friends and recapture the small-town anonymity. In Magnolia Bluff, no one suspects their fame.
They discount the status as urban legends in favor of acceptance and a quiet, peaceful life. After all, a supermodel needs time and space to recharge between jobs. A geek wants time to adore his wife.

· Does Magnolia Bluff hold the answers to their prayers?
· Will their desires get clouded by a hidden secret?


Past, present, and future collide in a perfect storm no one expected. JJ and Jo take action to uncover the truth. Chief Tommy Jager likes them but feels they’re a lightning rod for trouble and disruption.
Who will live or die to prevent the truth from being exposed? The answers may be in the graveyard with fresh flowers on the gravestone.

AUTHOR BIOS

BREAKFIELD – Charles is a data/telecom solution architect and supports digital security, blockchain solutions, and unified communications. He enjoys writing, studying World War II history, international travel, and cultural exchanges. Charles’ love of wine tastings, cooking, and Harley riding often provides writing topics.

Much of his personality comes from his father, who served in the military for 30 years and three wars. Charles grew up on multiple bases and in different countries. The multicultural exposure helps him with the various character perspectives they bring to the series. His personal ambition is to continue to teach Burkey humor.

BURKEY– Rox is a Customer Experience Specialist who works with businesses worldwide. As a gifted speaker and accomplished listener, she bridges the chasm between business problems and technical solutions to optimize business productivity. She has written technology briefings and white papers but launches into high gear when plotting our next technothriller or short story.

As a youngster, she led the other kids with her highly charged imagination generating new adventures with make-believe characters as a child. She is proud of being a Girl Scout until high school and contributed to the community as a member of a Head Start program. Rox enjoys her family, learning, listening to people, traveling, outdoor activities, sewing, cooking, and thinking about diversifying the series.

BREAKFIELD AND BURKEY began their writing partnership with non-fictional papers and books, then formed a business LLC for fictional storytelling. They recognize that stories are an evolving method to share excitement, thrills, and insights to today’s technology risks. EnigmaSeries.com has samples of the Enigma Series novels, short stories, audiobooks, book trailers, with the newest series Enigma Heirs releasing in March 2023. They’ve earned multiple awards for their fictional creations. Contact them via email at Authors@EnigmaSeries.com.

They are passionate about leveraging real technology into fictional writing. The variety of characters’ attributes from the many people who crossed their professional paths adds that depth. Admittedly, Breakfield often asks people he meets if they thought about being an evil cyberthug or femme fatale in their series.

Both authors have traveled to many places around the world. These travels are pulled into stories that require personal knowledge of specific locals. They enjoy well-rounded thrillers, including humor, romance, intrigue, suspense, and mystery.

They love to talk about their stories at private and public book readings or events. They have been proud Rave Reviews Book Club members for over three years.

Life after Death: What Really Happens?

This is the unknowable question. Many faiths speak about life after death but no one truly knows until the end, or at least a near-death experience. I was recently compelled by my muse to write a story about life after death. Given my faith, there is a definite Christian influence. Please check out my latest story, Passing. While your beliefs may be different from mine, I think it’s worthy of consideration. Since it is a short story, it is a quick read.

I hope you take a chance and let me know what you thought? All the best!
