Welcome to the website of author T. E. Avery.
I was that kid, in class, who always got in trouble for staring out the window, or for daydreaming, or for making comic books and selling them to the other kids for a dime. I write mystery novels now. Murder By Plane is my first Reginald St. John mystery. Reginald is an actor and aviator who is always finding himself in desperate situations, usually with beautiful women and deadly killers. Mysteries about an actor and WW1 ace solving murders during the golden age of Hollywood. What could be better?

Here is what readers have to say about Murder By Plane.
"I loved this book. It was fast paced and never boring, in fact I couldn't put it down. I loved that it was set in the 1930's and mentioned the music and musicians of that era. I love a good mystery and I highly recommend this book."

" This is such an enjoyable book! Adorable characters and terrific story! During the whole book I saw Cary Grant as the main character... what a great time in history! Happily recommend this book! "
"A simply wonderful first book! I stayed up until three in the morning because I couldn't put it down. The characters were interesting and people I could care about. A little romance,too! I can't wait for the next book!"
"What images does the name Reginald St. John evoke? He lives in 1930s Hollywood. He is an actor and a pilot/aviator in the Golden Days of Hollywood. His fiancee is killed in a plane crash. Reginald is devastaed. But that's not all: he suspects she was murdered. In the midst of 30s music and musicians, backlighted by the glitz of Tinsel Town, Reginald must now track down the "who" and the "why." The author is very skilled, from the first sentence, at his craft. The only thing the reader will want after reading this page-turner is MORE!!"
"This book was great. It was fast moving and reminded me of a classic movie. The descriptions of the characters and setting really helped put you in the story."
"Crisp dialogue and velvet Hollywood 1930's atmosphere sets up an absorbing tale of intrigue. Nicely written with just enough twist to make you keep reading. Well done."
