Publisher's Summary:
Amazon #1 Bestselling author - over 1 million books in circulation.
From the author of This Doesn't Happen In The Movies, a listeners' favorite finalist in mystery, comes another great suspense story with a dash of humor!
Denver private investigator Reed Ferguson is at it again!
Marijuana store owner Jodie Lundgren suspects that someone is trying to steal her newly developed process for growing marijuana faster and cheaper. She hires Reed to see if this is true or part of her stoner imagination. Reed goes undercover as an employee in Jodie's store, and he soon discovers that selling weed can be a dangerous business. It doesn't take long before Reed uncovers secrets and lies that lead to murder. But can he find the killer before his secret identity is discovered?
Along with the usual cast of characters - Reed's girlfriend, Willie, his tech-savvy best friend Cal, and the none-too-bright Goofball Brothers - that listeners have grown to love, The Lady Who Sang High is full of suspense and humor and cleverly pays homage to film noir.

Terrific Noir
This is a terrific book. Amazingly this series is getting better and better. I say amazingly because a couple of the earlier books were perhaps less than optimal, and usually a series doesn't recover from that. But this one sure has. The plot around the newly legal weed trade was particularly interesting. I can't rate individual elements like characterizations, plot, pacing, locale, but taken together, the book held my interest and was entertaining throughout. Reed still does a couple of stupid things (in the spirit of "what is that noise in the dark cellar? I think I'll go see....", or "Oh, an important clue that I have no intention of telling the police detective about") that make me want to scream, but they are minor, come early, and don't detract too much. Overall, I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more in this series and more by Renee Pawlish.
Reed and weed - what a combination
Jodie Lundgren, operator of a marijuana store in Denver, hires PI Reed Ferguson to try and find out who is trying to steal a new marijuana growing process being developed by her brother, Jude. She hires Reed to go undercover in the store, but his snooping becomes a matter of life and death when Jude is murdered.
The Lady Who Sang High by Renee Pawlish is another entertaining offering in the Reed Ferguson mystery series. Pawlish takes the reader inside the growing marijuana scene in Colorado since legalization, and once again demonstrates that Reed Ferguson is the new tough-guy detective on the noir scene. Youâll be glued to your seat as Reed, his girlfriend, Willie, computer wizard, Cal, and the inept Goofball Brothers team up to find a murderer before he or she strikes again. Crisp action scenes, retro dialogue, and detailed (but, not too detailed) descriptions of Denver, strike just the right note as Reed quips and fumbles his way to the solution of another mind-blowing case.
The author sets this mystery up nicely, feeding readers a jumble of clues, some false, some just tricky, and keeping readers and Reed guessing until the very end.
