Rosemary Herbert is a fresh and compelling new voice in crime fiction. Like a shot of good whiskey, Front Page Teaser is short and bracing. You'll love it. I did.

– Robert B. Parker

Making her debut as a novelist, Herbert, a former LJ reviewer, librarian, and authority on the mystery novel (The Oxford Companion to Crime & Mystery Writing), brings all of her newspaper experience to bear in this neatly plotted tale of misdirection.

Front Page Teaser is a gripping tale of an investigative reporter on the hunt. Rosemary Herbert has a huge advantage in writing it. As one of us 'ink-stained wretches' who write the news, she's been there and done that, knows the way reporters write and how to make the story move.

– Tom Hillerman

Front Page Teaser puts readers smack dab in the middle of the newsroom. In this Boston-inflected tale...Rosemary Herbert shows why a newspaper is the best place for a mystery writer to start and a fine place to start a mystery. Front Page Teaser is a winner and so is Liz Higgins. I look forward to Herbert handing her scrappy reporter her next assignment.

– Gerry Boyle

In Front Page Teaser — which could easily be called Front Page Turner — Rosemary Herbert has spun a masterful web of mystery and murder. This book has movie — good movie — written all over it.
