Everyone thinks Boz Gentry died in a fiery traffic accident, but Roy Ballard and Mia Madison aren’t convinced. As legal videographers, it’s their job to provide evidence of insurance fraud—and the more they dig into the Gentry case, the more they realize this might be the most elaborate scheme they’ve ever encountered. Of course, when millions of dollars are at stake, con men will take drastic steps to protect their scam—including arson, assault, or even murder. Can Roy and Mia unravel the conspiracy before the criminals get desperate enough to kill?
Edgar Award finalist Ben Rehder's novels have made best-of-the-year lists in Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, Kirkus Reviews, and Field & Stream.
REVIEWS FOR BEN REHDER'S NOVELS
“Murderously funny.”
—Chicago Tribune
“Another of Rehder’s relentlessly twisted tales. Outrageous fun.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Wickedly funny.”
—Dallas Morning News
“The odd cast of characters and bizarre plots and subplots make for a rollicking good read.”
—Houston Chronicle
“Rehder has made the leap from writing skillful comic pleasantries to pulverizing satire.”
— Austin American-Statesman
“Rehder writes with an assured hand and a knowing tip of the wide-brimmed cowboy hat to the ways and wiles of the characters that people his distinctly Texan landscape.”
—San Antonio Express-News
“[An] increasingly popular (and increasingly enjoyable) series. With this novel, the Marlin series has completed the transition from light mystery to no-holds-barred madcap comedy crime fiction (à la Westlake or Hiaasen).” —Booklist
“Rehder continues to improve with each book. [His] series will appeal to fans of Southwestern mysteries laced with a bit of humor.”
—Library Journal
“This series about Blanco County, Texas, game warden John Marlin keeps getting odder and funnier…But one thing’s for sure Rehder has jumped to a new level...just might grab a chunk of the outsize Hiaasen crowd.”
—Booklist
“Down-home humor that is both intriguing and entertaining.”
—Dallas Morning News
“Rollicking good fun.”
—San Antonio Express-News
“Rehder’s clever storytelling skills, his expert comic timing and flair for characters have made this series shine. Rehder doesn’t just write niche mysteries, he’s proving to be one of the genre’s rising talents with his twisted tales.”
—South Florida Sun-Sentinel
“The writing here is confident and vigorous; the tone is quintessentially Texan and relentlessly wry. There’s sure to be a long career for this happy, wacky series.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Ben Rehder writes about the Texas Hill Country with such insightful appreciation that he’s come to own the territory, much the same way Carl Hiaasen owns South Florida.”
—Austin Chronicle

Good detective work, not any flaws in the storylines and there isn't a bunch of violence and sex that doesn't move the story forward. And Mia is a great partner, they playoff each other really well. Ben Rehder is good with the quips and snappy repartee. I am looking forward to reading more about these folks.Product details

Get Busy Dying Roy Ballard Mysteries Book 2 edition by Ben Rehder Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
I like this guys writing style. I like the personality he gave Roy, the sarcasm and dry wit. I like Roys girl. The storyline was good. The characters were all fleshed out and believable. The book is one of many excellent mystery thrillers penned by this author that I'll continue to devour and enjoy. I highly recommend this author no series.
This may be a biased review because I'm a big Ben Rehder fan. I consume everything he writes. He truly is a Texas version of Florida's own Carl Hiaasen. And that is high praise. In Get Busy Dying, the character of Roy Ballard is just funny enough. In other words, the jokes don't get in the way of the story.
I'll say again, if you're not reading Ben Rehder, you're missing some really fine reading! This is especially true if you're a native of Austin, Texas, where his mysteries are set. I find myself excited about getting back to reading his stories when I'm interrupted by, of all things, work! I can hardly wait to see what's going to happen next. Do yourself a favor. READ Ben Rehder's books!
This was an interesting mystery, Told in first person,very conversational. The plot revolved around a man dying in a car crash after he had taken a three million dollar insurance policy on himself. The insurance company wanted to know if fraud was evident. Through many twists and turns , it was a good read.
My first book by Ben Rehder & it will not be my last one. He is a terrific fast paced writer that does not bore you with more detail than is necessary for the telling of the story..
I fell in love with Roy & Mia & the story kept me wondering, not as to whether Boz was dead or alive, but who was an accomplice in the attempted fraud scheme with him.
The other fraud investigation was a hoot, & the arson investigation was a surprise as well.
Both Roy & Mia have a terrific sense of humor & great dialogue between them. I felt as though they were real people that I actually knew.
I would highly recommend this fast paced, easy & fun read. I hope his other books go on sale, because I will jump all over them.
There was a moment in this book where I thought, oh, no. He's run out of things to do or stories to tell so he has to bring the Blanco County mysteries into it. I was completely relieved that he didn't do this. Although he makes passing mention of it and some of the characters go there, they don't interact with any of the people from the Blanco County books or visit any of the same places. That would have been lazy on the author's part but he didn't go there. The mark of a great writer. I have been enjoying this series just as much as the Blanco County mysteries.
I wanted a light, fun read after slogging through a previous book that took a lot of time and thought to get through. This fit the bill. The story moves along quickly, there are enough twists and turns to keep any reader satisfied, and the main character is, what we call in the South, a hoot. He is witty and quick with his comebacks. His comely partner matches him barb for barb. Set in the Texas Hill Country, the book satisfies another joy of mine reading about "home." I'm not from Austin (I'm from Ft. Worth--where the west begins--Cowtown, USA) but I've spent enough time in the Texas capital to recognize the landmarks in this fun, fun novel. If crime novels are your thing, and your not ready to take on Crime and Punishment, then pick up Get Busy Dying. You'll be glad!
Good detective work, not any flaws in the storylines and there isn't a bunch of violence and sex that doesn't move the story forward. And Mia is a great partner, they playoff each other really well. Ben Rehder is good with the quips and snappy repartee. I am looking forward to reading more about these folks.
