About the Book

It is 1977, and 21-year-old amateur sleuth, Jane Newell, plans to seize life and make it her own as soon as she can get her VW Beetle out of the ditch. Having just graduated from a Midwestern college in elementary education, Jane accepted a teaching position in the small rustic town of Little Missouri, South Dakota. However, she's not the only subject of local gossip. Round the Bend Bar and Café buzzes with talk of a recent tragedy-a hit and run murder that left one of her new students without a mother and the whole community restless for answers. Jane's nose for misadventure pulls her into a humorous tale of mystery among the zany characters surrounding her-from neighbor Merle Laird and his prize cow Snippy to the glitter-hating school janitor, Velma. Amidst the scenic wonder of this quirky little corner of western South Dakota, she begins her new life knowing that someone close to her was undoubtedly a killer, and she is determined to find out who it is.

About the Author :
Before I became an author, I taught elementary school for 25 years. 7 of those years were spent in northwestern South Dakota. Our first child was born while we lived there, and our experiences with him resulted in 6 books for the special needs community. My fiction series, West River Mysteries, draws heavily on my years as an Iowan who landed in cowboy country, who taught country school, and who was adopted and cared for by the locals in the tiny town where we lived.

Review :
Praise for See Jane Run! From the crow of the next-door rooster in the (way too) early morning to the mystery surrounding one of Jane's young students, you'll find yourself rooting for this heroine, page after page. Elrena Evans, author of Special Grace: Prayers and Reflections for Families with Special Needs Jolene Stratton Philo's See Jane Run is a delightful romp, a homespun tale, that will keep readers guessing "whodunit" without haunting them at night. . . . Philo's quirky cast of characters, small-town intrigue, and celebration of community, faith, and family make this a recipe as wholesome and satisfying as Merle's non-skid pancakes. Rebecca Janni, author of the Every Cowgirl series A plucky young teacher, away from home for the first time, helps solve a who-done-it in a small South Dakota town . . . With grit, spirit, a great sense of humor, and adventure, she also learns to milk a cow and handle a grumpy cleaning lady, all the while pondering clues . . . I'm looking forward to more West River Mysteries from Jolene Philo. Joy Neal Kidney is the author of Leora's Letters, also of Leora's Dexter Stories, and a regular on the Our American Stories podcast
