Murder in Music City  
Apr. 11, 2013
Author:  Jenna Brown
Category:  Fiction: Mystery/Crime
Description:  The first title in the Jenna Brown mystery series, Murder in Music City introduces Jenna Brown, a (Nashville) Music Row entertainment lawyer. Jenna is a cultured woman, but she is no lady. She has green eyes, ivory skin, long wheat-colored hair that she wears in a french braid, and an attitude. She is 33, a former newspaper reporter who, after several years of practice with another law firm, has her own office across the hall from her apartment in an old building on Music Row. She is mother confessor to her friends and clients, who are a varied bunch of interesting characters. She likes men, but is wary of the demands they make on her. She drinks sherry and collects antique cut-glass perfume bottles, but she isn't sentimental and knows how to handle herself in a dive club after midnight.

In the novel Jenna copes with a gunshot wound, a kidnapping, a knock on the head, a macho boyfriend, a treacherous blueblood music lawyer, a stripper, a twenty-year-old secret and a forty-year-old mystery, various singers and songwriters, two thugs, a money-laundering conspiracy, a dangerous but charming drug trafficker, crooked cops, and four murders.

Rights available:  All
Other information:  Jenna Brown is the pseudonym of a Nashville lawyer who (in her own words) is not as young, beautiful, or bold as Jenna but is craftier and wiser. In practice for more than twenty years, she has published several books on intellectual-property law and music law. She lives and writes in the woods north of Nashville and is presently at work on another mystery novel in the Jenna Brown series.

About Jenna Brown novels:

All rights are available for the Jenna Brown mystery series. The first three titles are complete.

Jenna will appeal to readers who like Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone, Sara Paretsky's V.I. Warshawski, and Robert Parker's Spenser, as well as the humor of the books of Lisa Scottoline and the atmosphere and Southern setting of those of James Lee Burke.
