Book Description
Murder in a British village. Unsolved mysteries. An empty-nester in a pickle. What more could possibly go wrong? BODIES, BADDIES, AND A CRABBY TABBY - 1 Megan Fallon is in a pickle. As if empty-nest syndrome wasn't bad enough, she's joined the ranks of the unemployed, and her fiancé’s run off with her hairdresser. In desperate need of a change of scene, she heads back to her childhood village home for some long-overdue friends and family time. Things are looking up until members of the community start getting bumped off at an alarming rate, and Megan finds herself at the heart of an investigation that has her suspecting everyone. As she becomes involved in the hunt for a murderer, it’s not long before she finds out that some of the villagers are harbouring shocking secrets... Will you guess whodunnit? SECRETS, LIES, AND PUPPY DOG EYES - 2 Megan's putting the fiancé who left her well and truly out of her mind, and focusing on settling back into village life, and her new job. Meanwhile, her childhood friend, American, Jack Windsor, is renovating the old village school, and is looking for a four-legged friend to share his new home with. All is well in Bliss Bay until obituaries start appearing on the church noticeboard for villagers who are still very much alive, and the village is thrown into turmoil. Is the well-respected family who is being targeted the subject of a very bad joke, or are the obituaries a sign of something far more sinister? And who is responsible when an unassuming member of the village is murdered? Could a 40 year-old suspicious death hold the key to solving the murder, or is that simply a red herring to put detectives off the scent of the real killer? Is the murderer a retired bank manager? Or could it be his wife, who was the subject of controversial gossip years before? Is the village busybody responsible? Her hatred for two high-profile suspects is well-known among the villagers, and her motives are personal. Or is the killer someone else entirely? As a reluctant Megan is drawn into the mystery by her TV detective show-loving, Uncle Des, secrets and lies come to light, but will they help to find the murderer? MALICE, REMORSE, AND A ROCKING HORSE - 3 Megan needs to find a killer before the biggest night of the year in Bliss Bay village; a charity dinner and auction to raise funds for local children's charities. After all, there's nothing like a murderer on the loose to put a dampener on the party spirit. With her Uncle Des in tow, the two intrepid amateur sleuths set out to identify the perpetrator. They could be onto something after a mysterious rocking horse offers up a clue to the identity of the murderer but, with so many suspects and the body count rising, how will they solve the mystery before another innocent person is targeted? As the hunt for the killer intensifies, it soon becomes clear that no one is safe... Fans of Agatha Frost and HY Hanna may like these cozy mysteries, written by mystery author Sherri Bryan using British English spelling and terminology.

In the midst of dealing with quirky, incompetent and occasionally just unpleasant new floral assistants, Lacey finds her focus and time once again taken up by murder. The West Coast Bird Watcher's Society has come to town for some birding frivolity and excursions. When one of the members winds up dead, Lacey and her super nose jump into action. The victim had plenty of enemies and not many friends so theories and accusations take flight. Detective Briggs and Lacey must untangle the clues to find the killer. • Jasmine and Jealousy (Book 14) It's a busy end of summer for Lacey Pinkerton and so much is happening Lacey can hardly keep up. Ryder returns but his arrival does not go as expected and Lacey finds herself smack in the center of a Lola driven bout of drama. On top of that, there's a new detective in town. While Lacey's happy that Briggs will have more free time (especially if it's spent with her) she's not too sure about Detective Fairchild.

The popular Taco Brothers run a smooth operation but the relationship between the siblings is anything but smooth. When one of the brothers winds up dead, Lacey is anxious to help investigate.

Will Lacey finally put together the pieces to solve the hundred-year-old murder mystery? • Shamrocks and Shenanigans (Book 15) After Lacey Pinkerton solved the hundred-year-old mystery of the Hawksworth family murders, Port Danby dropped into a season of chaos. Mayor Price resigned from office, and the town grew divided with some standing behind Harlan Price, and the Price family legacy, and others, including Lacey, deciding that Bertram Hawksworth needed total exoneration and a loftier place in Danby history. With a vacancy in the mayor's office, Nellie Smith, Bertram's great-grandniece decides to run, and Lacey is happy to join the campaign. When a man is murdered on Nellie's driveway, all evidence points to the candidate. Lacey is in a race against time to solve the murder and save the campaign. But the investigation takes a dangerous turn when Lacey becomes the killer's next target. More in the series: Thistles and the Unthinkable (Book 16) Holly and Horror (Book 17) Book 18 TBA
