About the Book

Jessica and Murphy Are Back!

Three years ago, the nation gasped in horror when the President of the  United States barely escaped an assassination attempt that left two  dead—the vice president’s wife and the attempted assassin.  Even after  numerous investigations proved otherwise, conspiracy theorists argue  that the assassin was acting on orders from the CIA, FBI, and every  federal agency within a hundred miles of the capital.

Aspiring  Author Dean Conway is the last person Lieutenant Commander Murphy  Thornton wants to spend his Saturday afternoon when they end up at the  same wedding reception table.

Praise for The Nutcracker Conspiracy

"Wow - this is one INCREDIBLE novel that I could not put down. It had me on the edge of my seat and I can honestly say that I never saw the end coming. It was full of suspense, action but also humour (done in a way that only Lauren can accomplish)."

"Grab your snacks. Put the cat/dog out. Send hubby somewhere to entertain himself. And Beware! don't start at bedtime! Get ready for a page-turning ride that will have you on the edge of your seat! Lauren Carr does it again - giving us a fast paced thrilling ride that will knock your socks off. Or maybe knock you right out of your stiletto's! "

"Once again, just when I think that I've figured something out, Carr throws a curveball and I'm left amazed that she can keep me guessing until the end! There are so many twists and turns my head was spinning at one point."

Laura Fabiani

"The Nutcracker Conspiracy - book #4 in author Lauren Carr's Thorny Rose Mystery series - offers a wild and complicated ride. It is a political thriller full of head spinning twists and turns. Intriguing clues are offered along the way to guide you, but the complicated plot is one that will keep you guessing until the final chapter."
