About The Book
SCRUMPTIOUS DETECTIVES
SHADOWS OF SWEETWATER GROVE
Some Secrets Refuse to Stay Buried
Sweetwater Grove should be settling down after Mayor Bennett’s murder. Instead, Jess Scrumptious senses that something is terribly wrong. Strange phone calls, threatening notes, construction near the old fountain, and a disturbing discovery beneath the soil lead Jess, Hailey, Jeff, and Hunter toward a mystery much older than they imagined.
Shadows of Sweetwater Grove blends suspense, friendship, family secrets, and small-town intrigue into a mystery where uncovering the truth may be more dangerous than leaving it buried.

About The Book
SCRUMPTIOUS DETECTIVES
SECRETS OF SWEETWATER GROVE
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since 1966, when designers at Letraset and James Mosley, the librarian at St Bride Printing Library in London, took a 1914 Cicero translation and scrambled it to make dummy text for Letraset’s Body Type sheets. It has survived not only many decades, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised thanks to these sheets and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker and Microsoft Word including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

The Stand-In
The Women In Her Place By Ella Waters
Elena Reyes is still paying her bills, tending her garden, and texting her sister. There is only one problem: Elena has been dead for five months.
When investigators Linda and Larry uncover a life maintained by someone else, every clue leads deeper into a freight company built on secrets. A hidden drive, a staged home, and a frightened witness point toward the obvious suspect-but the truth is waiting in the one place no one thought to look.
As the danger closes in, Linda and Larry must expose the killer before another witness is silenced.
Someone took Elena’s place. Someone will kill to keep it.

About The Book
The BookShop Murder
A Clara & Jack Murder Mystery
Gerald Fitch made his living uncovering secrets and blackmailing people desperate to keep them buried. Now he is dead in Clara Whitford’s bookshop, and her letter opener is lying beside his body.
Clara believed her painful divorce and the mistakes surrounding it were finally behind her. But Gerald Fitch knew the truth about her past, and he had been using it to control her. When Clara discovers the ruthless blackmailer murdered beside the rare-book cabinet at Whitford Books, her sanctuary becomes a crime scene-and she becomes the most obvious suspect.
Former police detective Jack Rourke knows that Fitch collected enemies as carefully as he collected secrets.
Together, Jack and Clara investigate the people caught in the blackmailer’s web: a remorseful ex-hushand, a fiercely loyal friend, a quiet poet, and a delivery driver hiding a troubling past.
