Dez's inquiries put her on a path that threatens to expose the secrets and lies of one of Omaha's wealthiest and most prominent families. The closer she gets to uncovering the truth, the more twisted the revelations. Will she be able to identify the killer before someone else dies?

"What are you?""Excuse me?""You know, like where are you from?""Nebraska.""No, I mean like, what ARE you?"I've been asked this question more times than I can count. And I always know what the person is trying to ask, but I have to admit I kind of like to see them struggle. It shouldn't be so hard to ask, "Hey, what race are you?" But it is. Especially when the person doesn't fit nicely into one box. This is the plight of every ethnically ambiguous-looking person on earth.Growing up in the Midwest, I never knew I wasn't black until a 12-year-old white boy told me so. Do you have any idea how discombobulating that is? (I love that word.) Anyway - it's confusing. I'd spent the first 11 years of my life thinking I was black. Suddenly, I didn't know what I was. And neither did anybody else.So, my journey from black to ethnic ambiguity began. There were a few challenges along the way, like the time a white supremacist accepted me, but not my brother or father. That was a really strange encounter. Or, when a drunk white guy asked if he could use a plastic fork to comb my beautiful curls. (Everyone knows you don't mess with a black woman's hair.)But one of the best things about being biracial is the superpower that comes with it. Yeah, you read that right. I can blend into almost every ethnic group on the planet. Can you do that? With this power comes great responsibility (Thank you, Uncle Ben.) Being biracial is about accepting who I am and demonstrating a willingness to accept who everyone else it, too.Just to be clear, because I don't want you to be disappointed, this book isn't for everyone. You'll need a thick skin, open mind, and a sense of humor to digest it. After all, that's what's gotten me this far.Who is it for? I'm glad you asked (and you're still reading this blurb.)If you like reading about other people's challenges and how they overcame them, then you're going to love this book.If you know a biracial kid who's struggling with who they are, then give them this book. (And tell them to get in touch with me. I'm happy to chat with them.)If you're curious about what it takes to make it in a black and white world when you're not one or the other, this is the book for you.Buy My Life in Black and White and you'll never be discombobulated about race in America, again. (Of course, I can't really guarantee that!)

Read the series that Sinfully Scandalous Mysteries readers call ..."A highly original plot." "Swift, smart, and enjoyable!" "Captivating & masterful!" Dez is a magnet for the downtrodden. Her Great Aunt Violet used to warn her to stay clear of broken and damaged people. But a sign on her forehead reads, "Tell me anything." And they always do. When Dez gets cornered by a frustrated cashier asking for advice, she wants the sign to stop blinking. After a long night snapping pics for her latest case of liars and cheaters, all Dez wants is popcorn, a glass of wine, and to binge-watch something-anything. But then, the cashier's 19-year-old sister ends up dead. The police ruled the death a suicide. But the sister is unconvinced and wants Dez to find proof. ¿The cashier's sister was dating someone, but with no name, Dez has nothing to go on. It'll take a lot of digging to find a person without a name. But if Dez does, will she find proof the sister didn't kill herself?If you like compelling reads with a pull-no-punches PI, then you'll love author Kori D. Miller's riveting book. Filled with well-developed characters and a strong female lead, it provides a great distraction from everyday life. Tempus: A Dezeray Jackson Novel is book 3 in Kori's Sinfully Scandalous Mysteries series. Fans of Janet Evanovich, Sue Grafton, or Marcia Muller, will love getting to know PI Dezeray Jackson. She's smart, sassy, and has a penchant for weapons, good-looking men, and a great game of pool. And only one of those helps her solve cases. **The first three books in the Sinfully Scandalous Mysteries series are best read in order, but only because of the well-developed subplot. Yeah, there's one of those! Two mysteries in one. But I promise you'll know who did what by the end of Tempus. But will you figure it out before Dez?Buy TEMPUS and put your whodunit skills to the test!
