Cozy Mysteries

Whodunits with small town charm and plenty of twists.

Coming 12/1/26

The holiday season turns deadly in Starfire, Georgia, when retired Atlanta realtor Lottie Harper discovers her longtime rival murdered in her 55+ community's model home she decorated, killed by a blow from her very own candlestick. Suddenly, she's the police chief's prime suspect. With support from her rambunctious rescue pup Escrow and her cul-de-sac gal pals, Lottie sets out to find the real killer and restore the town's Christmas spirit for the Winter Solstice Festival. Or will she ring in the New Year from behind bars?

“Everything you want in a cozy mystery: a clever whodunit, a charming small-town setting, great friendships, and plenty of humor.” ~ Carolyn Ridder Aspenson, USA Today bestselling author
