Margie Peterson Mysteries
If you love a mystery with the most unlikeliest P.I. EVER… with enough snort-worthy moments to have the family looking up and wanting to know what’s tickled your fancy… then, yeah, pay Margie Peterson a visit. You will not be disappointed.
If you preordered The Lies that Bind, you may have surmised that Amazon deleted the preorder… I didn’t realize that the deadline was Greenwich Mean Time, not Central Standard time, and instead of being five and a half hours ahead of schedule, I was thirty minutes late.…
Sweet peaches, family secrets… and a farm-fresh murder.
A struggling peach orchard, a tangled love triangle, and a suspicious death have farmer Lucy Resnick’s reporter instincts on high alert in the latest Dewberry Farm mystery.
Fatal Fiction the 4th book in the Snug Harbor Mysteries is Live!
Old bones and a twisty new mystery make for a delicious pageturner!
The air at Seaside Cottage Books is tinged with autumn, and bookseller Max Sayers is helping her friend Denise Wilmington start a new chapter by turning the abandoned shop next door into a cozy coffee house. But when the two women dig up a decades-old rhododendron by the front walk, they uncover a grisly secret entwined with the bush’s roots: a woman’s skeleton, buried with a gold ring.
But Max doesn’t have time to dig up dirt on old bones. The next day, a famous Maine author’s bequest to the Snug Harbor library vanishes within hours of arriving. Then Max’s assistant Bethany and her boyfriend Devin discover the head librarian—and Devin’s new boss–strangled with a phone cord behind the circulation desk.
Suspicion quickly darkens the crisp fall air. Was Bethany’s boyfriend, who had no love lost for his new boss, behind the library director’s untimely death? Or is a darker, older plot hidden in Snug Harbor’s leafy streets? When a curious Max finds herself the subject of the next attack, the plot arc becomes terrifyingly clear. It’s up to Max to find the villain, and fast… or her next chapter may be her last.
Welcome back to the cozy world of Dewberry Farm, in Buttercup, Texas… where Lucy’s flock has been a victim of chickennapping. To make things worse, there’s a new tenant, Jo Nesbit, in her historic rental cottage… and Jo’s got her sights set on buying local properties and running some of Buttercup’s most treasured businesses out of town. But when a killer dispatches Buttercup’s new would-be landlord, Lucy uncovers long-buried secrets involving one her dear friends… secrets that could be deadly.
