An indie company comes to Oregon to film Acid Test: The Life of Ken Kesey. Eugene location scout Estrella "Star" Stevens stumbles over a dead body and into the crushing embrace of the FBI. She's forced to join their risky investigation of gangland boss and titty bar owner Oscar Quarry. Narrowly escaping death, she's suddenly living her own movie. Will she be a star? Or the next corpse? And which homicidal Oregonian is racking up the body count?
A fellow Oregonian, Diana followed Ken Kesey to Stanford where her creative writing class was NOT the one he visited while on the lam. Those parallels form the basis of a lifelong fascination with the man and his brilliant novels. Her tribute to Kesey is a comic mystery evoking a laid-back era, in sharp contrast to a harsh post 9/11 law enforcement approach.
A Macavity Award finalist acclaimed for "sharp storytelling" (Publishers Weekly), Diana Deverell brings you an intriguing heroine and an ongoing cast of entertaining characters in her quirky little mystery. Buy Murder, Ken Kesey, and Me today and treat yourself to pages of fun.

Diana made her debut as a novelist in 1998 with a series of international thrillers featuring State Department counterterrorist analyst Kathryn "Casey" Collins: 12 Drummers Drumming, Night on Fire, and East Past Warsaw. The three novels are also available in a single ebook, The Casey Collins Trilogy. Diana's short story, "Warm Bodies in a Cold War", originally published in 1996 under a different title, introduced Casey to the readership of the Foreign Service Journal. The prequel No Place for an Honest Woman expanded on Casey's early career. The story and all four thrillers are now available as individual ebooks.
In 2000, Diana's short fiction starring FBI Special Agent Dawna Shepherd started making regular appearances in Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine. Her mystery collection, Run & Gun: A Dozen Tales of Girls with Guns includes eleven Dawna Shepherd stories first published by Alfred Hitchcock, plus all-new "Latin Groove". Both the collection and "In Plain Sight," her 2013 mystery, are available in e-editions. Dawna's latest adventure, "Blown," appeared in the Kobo Special Edition of Pulse Pounders, the Januaury 2015 issue of Fiction River anthology.
In 2012, Diana released her comic mystery novel, Murder, Ken Kesey, and Me as an ebook.
Other digital editions include "Heart Failure", a short story set on the day Jim Morrison died, written to order for a publisher of textbooks for Danish teens learning English.
