- "A splendid series
featuring a problem -solving sleuth with a Philadelphia Main
Line twist. Definitely not your usual housewife detective."

- "Donna Huston Murray's
Ginger Barnes series is a well-written, thoughtful exploration
of family relationships, crime and what happens when the two
sometimes overlap. Her voice is as familiar as a long-time girlfriend's
yet provocative and wise as a favorite aunt's. Her choice of
subjects to explore have been both intelligent and timely. I
consider each book a necessary addition to my mystery collection."

- "My only concern with
these cozy type of mysteries is that often there just isn't enough
there to be worthwhile, and they just aren't clever enough for
me...not the case with your series....Very smart writing and
a good enough plot to have kept me reading it pretty much in
one sitting."

- "To the best of my knowledge,
no major literary award for "Best Chapter Endings"
currently exists. The minute such a prize does exist, Donna Huston
Murray will win it. Easily. Not content with merely writing excellent,
cosy mystery novels . . . Donna Murray seems to put extra thought
and craftsmanship into the very last paragraphs of those chapters.
. .So pick a less than usually busy week to start your reading.

- "...the thing that grabbed
and held me...purely stylistic...is your ability to turn a phrase
that is insightful/graphic/or just beautiful in and of itself...to
paint a whole physical and emotional gestalt with just a few,
perfectly-chosen words."

- "I am an avid reader
of mysteries (esp. the cozies, British, etc.). It is not unusual
for me to read over 100 a year. I greatly appreciate authors
like yourself that write clean, fun, and mind boggling mysteries
that draw one into the story. When I hate for the book to end
then it has been a gooood book! And yours are in that category."
