Tough Mudder Mile 2.5, Skidmarked. Skidmarked is a lot like Berlin Wall, but instead of being straight up and down, it is angled at you. I was still feeling pretty darn confident from the last two obstacles and flew over this one like Cat Woman. At least that is how I looked in my head. Reality showed me scaling that wall like a sloth after a six pack of Budweiser, but I made it either way, so yaaa… there’s that. Tough Mudder didn’t say anything about being graceful. At that moment I was a gazelle. It’s easy though to be confident with obstacles you have done before. In the back of my mind I was worrying about the very last obstacle, Kong. By the looks of the pictures and videos I reviewed, Kong was about 50 feet high (more like 15 or 20) and they were five rings that you had to swing on to get from one platform to the other side. My confidence was always balanced out by my fear of breaking both my legs on Kong.
A Devious Mind (Dusty Kent Mysteries Book 2)
by Brigid George
Genre: Mystery
FREE for a limited time
A callous killer taunts Dusty Kent
It was a silent death. One blow to her head was all it took. The killer struck Marcia Hamilton, a sixty-year-old grandmother of slim build, from behind. Marcia’s status as a distinguished author could not save her. The killer rolled her body, ‘like a piece of discarded junk’, down into a gully where it remained for almost two weeks.
This murder is the most heinous crime imaginable: the crime of matricide. Dusty Kent is sure of that. But which of Marcia’s four offspring would be capable of such a deed? Dusty is determined to expose the murderer no matter who it is. Can she do it before the killer strikes again? Someone who’s already killed their mother would have no qualms about ‘bumping off’ a mere sibling in order to avoid exposure.
A Devious Mind is an enthralling whodunit awash with mystery and atmosphere — from the message seemingly sent by the murder victim after her death, to the intrigue of family dynamics, to the ambling lifestyle of Byron Bay: Australia’s famous beach town.
This is Book 2 of the Dusty Kent murder mysteries following Murder in Murloo.

Keeping things professional isn’t an option. I want all of her. Soon we’re staying late in the empty theatre, our private rehearsals spiraling into new, forbidden territory.
