MURDER BY ROAD TRIP is a comedy murder mystery, staged in the medical biotech and pharmaceutical industry. John J Jessop co-wrote the book with his daughter, Jackie. The story was inspired by a once-in-a-lifetime cross-country road trip they took together in 2016. While the destinations may be real, all events in MURDER BY ROAD TRIP are hilariously fictitious.

A missing research monkey, a tiny jewel thief, the great cheese caper, and a bumbling FDA reviewer/wannabe private eye trapped in an RV with three daughters. What could go wrong? Well-Healed Pharmaceuticals wants to interview Dr. Jason Longfellow for a lucrative job in San Diego. As incentive, they pay for a family road trip cross-country. The trip has its bumps: violent cowboy holograms, moving Border Patrol mannequins, Titan Missile Base military police, a mad dentist, and Fred Flintstone all try to steal Jason's teeth and kill him. His wife, Chelsea, nurse detective, blames these 'hallucinations' on excessive napping. Most nights, kids asleep, Jason takes Chelsea to the top of the RV, where he...takes Chelsea. She doesn't hate it. Other oddities include boundless energy and strange cravings. Who wants to kill Jason and take his teeth? They must solve this mystery, or Jason could end up a lifelong toothless FDA reviewer, or dead, whichever comes first. MURDER BY ROAD TRIP is the sequel to PLEASURIA: TAKE AS DIRECTED.

Dr. John J Jessop, a Ph.D. pharmacologist, spent nearly 40 years working for the FDA and pharmaceutical industry. He retired to write murder mysteries. Jacqueline J Jessop has a degree in media arts and design, edited and designed the covers for John's earlier books, and co-wrote MURDER BY ROAD TRIP with her father. She also designed the book cover. She currently works as a marketing expert in NYC.

Editorial Reviews

Review

If you think that a cross-country family trek in an RV is the definition of insanity, you'll love John and Jacqueline Jessop's Murder by Road Trip. On the way to a California job interview, private investigator Jason Longfellow experiences chronic dental problems, encounters a jewelry-stealing monkey, and enjoys an unexpected boost to his libido. Strangers seem to be obsessed with stealing his teeth, as he faces gunfire in an RV park and a kidnapping on a cabin cruiser. Hop in the RV and join Jason, his wife and daughters on this wild and comic ride!

--Henry G. Brinton, author of the mystery novel City of Peace

John and Jacqueline Jessop add new meaning to the phrase "road trip" in his sequel to PLEASURIA. Adding just the right amount of laughter, they turn out the perfect recipe for fans of murder mysteries. Bravo!

--Benjamin H Berkley, Author of Against My Will and In Defense of Guilt.

About the Author

Dr. John J Jessop, a Ph.D. pharmacologist, spent nearly 40 years working for the FDA and pharmaceutical industry. He retired to write murder mysteries. He started with two dark murder mysteries, the Guardian Angel series. After spending two years with such evil villains, he decided to take a different route and wrote a comedy murder mystery, PLEASURIA: TAKE AS DIRECTED, published in 2018. MURDER BY ROAD TRIP is his second comedy murder mystery staged in the medical biotech and pharmaceutical industry. John J Jessop co-wrote MURDER BY ROAD TRIP with his daughter, Jackie. The story was inspired by a once-in-a-lifetime cross-country road trip they took together in 2016. While the destinations may be real, all events in MURDER BY ROAD TRIP are hilariously fictitious. These comedy murder mysteries explore the potentially humorous side of medical biotech; what could happen when scientists play with your DNA, immune system and cells?

Dr. John J. Jessop has a Ph.D in pharmacology. After a career in the pharmaceutical industry he has turned to full time writing of murder mysteries; from drug developer to a KILLER MYSTERY WRITER, if you will.

He has two different series, a dark murder mystery series and a comedy murder mystery series. If one were to name a theme for the comedy mystery books, it might be murder in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. There are lots of ways to murder someone, but the creativity of these killers is over the top.

His comedy murder mystery series includes his 2022 Firebird Book Award winner for both mystery and humor THE REALTOR'S CURSE, MURDER BY ROAD TRIP, and the original PLEASURIA: TAKE AS DIRECTED, all available from Amazon, B&N and IngramSpark.

These books include Dr. Jason Longfellow, PI, an FDA drug reviewer turned amateur sleuth, who's a combination of Inspector Clouseau and Adrian Monk. His wife Chelsea is a nurse who struggles to keep him in line and out of trouble. She might even solve a case or two herself.

These books are staged in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. In PLEASURIA, Jason gets an online PI license. His wife is unhappy with his new part-time job, and when Jason investigates murder in the pharmaceutical industry all hell breaks loose. John co-wrote MURDER BY ROAD TRIP with his daughter, because it was inspired by a cross-country road trip they took together in 2016. The destinations are real, but the events are hilariously fictitious. THE REALTOR'S CURSE occurs in Florida, where the Longfellows are trying to buy a condo on the beach. PI Longfellow churns up so much murder and mayhem that Florida will never be the same.

In his dark murder mystery series, John is interested in the theme of vigilante justice. He has written two dark murder mysteries, GUARDIAN ANGEL: UNFORGIVEN and GUARDIAN ANGEL: INDOCTRINATION, currently on sale on Amazon.com as ebooks or in paperback. In this book series, FBI Agent Donald Cooper and his merry band of overzealous female law officers kick the butts of a serial killer and a cult leader, the worst of the worst bad guys.

John's daughter, Jackie, has a degree in media arts and design, edits his books, designs some of his book covers and co-wrote MURDER BY ROAD TRIP with him to make sure he got it right. More information on John, his work, and links to his books on Amazon, B&N and IngramSpark can be found on his webpage at johnjjessop.com.
