About the Books:

The Resale Boutique Mystery Series

The Resale Boutique Mystery Series features Kelly Quinn, an out-of-work fashionista who inherited her granny’s old, tired consignment shop in the hometown Kelly left in the rea view mirror ten years old. Coming back to Lucky Cove, NY, she settled into her new life as a boutique owner and finally had come to terms with the biggest mistake of her life.

In the newest release, WHAT NOT TO WEAR TO A GRAVEYARD, a socialite’s missing dog has made front page news in Lucky Cove—complete with a hefty reward. But between renovating the consignment shop, planning her costume for a 1970s themed Halloween party, and scouting a location for a fashion shoot, Kelly doesn’t have time to search. Yet a visit to the local colonial-era cemetery—ideal for the moody atmosphere she’s after—soon turns up the precious pooch. Kelly’s looking forward to collecting the check—until she makes a gruesome discovery in an abandoned farmhouse: The dog’s owner, stabbed through the heart.
 
Kelly can’t help wondering why Constance Lane was traipsing around the farmhouse in stilettos. But as Kelly gets decked out in a vintage disco caftan, that isn’t the only fashion misstatement spooking her. Hidden in the dead woman’s past is a secret that could be the motive for the murder. And as the Halloween party gets started, even a menacing clown and a threatening bearded lady can’t keep Kelly from trick or treating for the truth—even if it means her last dance . . .

The Food Blogger Mystery Series

The Food Blogger Mystery Series features blogger Hope Early who returned to Jefferson, Connecticut after losing a reality baking competition show and divorcing her husband. She’s settled into a farmhouse that needed a major facelift and reconnects with her high school crush, Police Chief Ethan Cahill.

The newest release in the series, THE CORPSE WHO KNEW TOO MUCH, finds Hope drawn into a cold case from twenty years ago. Joyce Markham disappeared on February morning and no one knew what happened. Now her daughter, Devon, has a podcast focusing on missing persons and her new case is her mother’s disappearance. When Devon disappears and then is found dead, Hope is determined to find the person responsible.
