Description

They say you can’t go home again, where chaos reigns …

A murder in a Seattle coffee house. A murder on a decaying boat dock on Puget Sound. Chaos over cell phone, email, and security intrusion logs. And it’s freezing in Seattle.
Samsara Byron, a programmer and retro Riot Grrrl, fears new exploits in her cyber-security software, but is distracted by her brother’s persistent ability to find trouble. Matt Owens, home on Limberlost Island, worries about gangsters pursuing his family. Nicky, porn-farmer and documentary auteur, is betrayed by his cousin’s deadly business decisions.

Meanwhile, the local weather guru promises that a large cold air mass headed for the Puget Sound Conversion Zone will dump record snow.

The Grrrl of Limberlost follows three self-absorbed voices through the frenzy and terror in their daily lives, mired in family losses and betrayals, while weaponized malware threatens to ruin Christmas. The key mystery: which voice is the unreliable narrator?

Annie Pearson’s Rain City Comedy of Manners series explores misadventures in contemporary Seattle among people whose work drives their hearts’ desires, often in conflict with other love affairs. When bad things happen to quirky people, can they survive the wretched comedy of romance under grey skies?

Advance Praise

“Annie Pearson's characters and story line in The Grrrl of Limberlost are contemporary to the mystery novel just as Dashiel Hammett's Nick and Nora Charles were in his day. Pearson captures the ethos of people caught in the electric speed and electronic maneuvering of our times where a murder is just a click away and every double cross comes with a backup. Don't miss this one—it's your new world and it's shifting under your feet as we speak.”
— Don McQuinn, The Moondark Saga
