In this delectable new cozy mystery series, social media maven Maddy Montgomery’s perfectly ’grammable life has come undone, and she’s #StartingOver in a tiny town with one giant problem—a killer on the loose . . .

When Maddy Montgomery’s groom is a no-show to their livestream wedding, it’s a disaster that no amount of filtering can fix. But a surprise inheritance offers a chance to regroup and rebrand—as long as Maddy is willing to live in her late, great-aunt Octavia’s house in New Bison, Michigan, for a year, running her bakery and caring for a 250-pound English mastiff named Baby.

Maddy doesn’t bake, and her Louboutins aren’t made for walking giant dogs around Lake Michigan, but the locals are friendly and the scenery is beautiful. With help from her aunt’s loyal friends, aka the Baker Street Irregulars, Maddy feels ready to tackle any challenge, including Octavia’s award-winning cake recipes. That is, until New Bison’s mayor is fatally stabbed, and Maddy’s fingerprints are found on the knife . . .

Something strange is going on in New Bison. It seems Aunt Octavia had her suspicions, too. But Maddy’s going to need a whole lot more than a trending hashtag to save her reputation—and her life.

Something Fishy This Way Comes

A Whit And Whiskers Mystery

by Gabby Allan

.

Something Fishy This Way Comes (A Whit and Whiskers Mystery)
Cozy Mystery
2nd in Series
Setting –  Santa Catalina Island
Kensington (July 26, 2022)
Paperback ‏ : ‎ 240 pages
ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 1496731077
ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-1496731074
Digital ASIN ‏ : ‎ B09KP3169L

Take in the wild beauty of Santa Catalina Island with tour guide and eclectic gift shop owner Whitney Dagner. On the itinerary: dramatic Pacific coastlines, diverse marine life, and murder!

Since returning home from mainland California and finding her groove with the family tourism business, Whitney Dagner’s daily routine has become a wonderfully chaotic adventure. She and her nimble kitty, Whiskers, often find themselves at the center of the action on Catalina, from staged treasure hunts to gossipy birdwatchers. But before Whit can get too comfortable in the place where she grew up, a gift shop order leads to a stunning discovery—someone’s dead body . . .

One of Whit’s best boat tour client’s, Leo Franklin was young and newly engaged when he unceremoniously took his own life. Only it doesn’t seem like that’s what really happened—not after the suspicious activity displayed by his family’s old rivals at the scene of his death. As a bitter, generations-long feud between Leo’s kin and the local Ahern clan comes to a head, Whit and her police diver not-so-ex-boyfriend must lead a dangerous investigation into years of scandal and bad blood to figure out who’s innocent . . . and who’s covering a killer’s tracks.

About Gabby Allan 

After writing plays for her friends to act out as a kid, bad poetry in high school, and her high school Alma Mater song, GABBY ALLAN finally found her true passion—cozy mysteries. Being able to share her world with readers, one laugh at a time, and touch people’s hearts with her down-to-earth characters makes for the best job ever. This California girl now lives with her husband, daughter, and two insane dogs in Central Pennsylvania where she is hard at work on her next novel.

Felicity Koerber’s bean to bar chocolate shop thriving. Despite everything she’s been through with the murders she’s helped solve, Felicity is ready to take on new challenges. So when a local museum offers her a contract to create a chocolate replica of a gigantic sailing ship sculpture for a gala celebrating Galveston’s history, she jumps at the chance to combine chocolate-crafting with art.

The project is fun – right up until there’s not just one but two dead artists on the scene, and Felicity has to change gears back to detective. Logan, Felicity’s business partner and previous bodyguard, and Arlo, Felicity’s ex who is now the cop investigating the case, are split on which victim they think was actually the intended one. Felicity may have to take some chances, both emotionally and in luring out a killer, to determine the truth.

Can she find out how Galveston’s history relates to the murders, unmask a killer, and prepare 2,000 chocolate desserts for the gala all at the same time?

~~~~~

Enjoy this peek inside:

Autumn leaves, and on her way out she passes Ash Diaz, who is just coming in the door.

From across the room, Tam Binh says, “Ash, what an unexpected pleasure,” in a tone of voice that means this visit is anything but.

“It’s okay,” I tell Tam Binh. “Ash and I are friends now.”

“Are we?” Ash looks pleased. He has light skin and square glasses and is wearing a button up shirt with a fitted denim blazer. Which gives him a hipster vibe. “I know I’ve thought of you as a friend, but I was never quite sure how you viewed me.”

“I did save your life,” I quip. “I wouldn’t do that for just anybody.”

Ash grins. After all, it hadn’t been that long since I’d kept him from getting poisoned and-or shot.

“Wouldn’t you?” Tam Binh asks. She gestures at Ash. “What about his irresponsible journalism? This guy gives bloggers a bad name.”

I say, “I think he’s paid enough for those mistakes.”

Tam Binh looks skeptical. Later, I’m going to have to give her the details about how one of Ash’s articles had gotten him accused of murder.

Ash says, “I’ve taken a few things down off the blog. But that doesn’t mean I’m not going to keep working. My blog connects me to the world.”

“I don’t think you’d still be the same person if you gave up blogging,” I tell him. I move over to the counter and give Ash the last of Carmen’s piggy cookies. She’s in the kitchen, making something else. Her energy today seems boundless.

Tam Binh asks Ash, “Are you here because I’m in town? I told you a long time ago that I’m not interested in an interview about my friend’s murder.”

“No, I didn’t even know you were on the island,” Ash says. He points at me. “I came by because this one isn’t answering her phone. How is she going to be present at another murder scene, and not call me? She knows I have to do another article – she’s still my biggest audience draw – and if she wants any input on what goes into it, there’s only a limited amount of time before I have to go to press – or else the standard news outlets will beat me to it.”

“About that,” I say, not mentioning that it hadn’t even occurred to me to call Ash and give him a news tip. “There was an attempted purse snatching while we were trying on bridesmaids’ dresses, and my phone got smashed.”

“What happened?” Tam Binh asks, alarmed.

I realize I didn’t tell her about the incident, so I give details. Then I say, “Don’t worry. I doubt the thief would be determined enough to try again. But I clearly was specifically targeted. If you don’t feel comfortable staying at the hotel with your kids present, I understand.”

Ash is taking notes. I give him a sharp look and he shrugs like, What? What do you expect me to do with juicy details? Like a sprint in a bridesmaid’s dress? 

Tam Binh says, “I’m sure the hotel will be fine.”

I tell Ash, “I’m hoping you can keep the details about the purse snatching out of your article. If the purse snatching has anything to do with the killer, that feels like it might be giving away too much.”

Ash scowls, but he nods. “Fine. But I’m keeping the notes, in case I can use them later. And in this article, I get to call you a mega murder magnet.”

I roll my eyes, but I can’t help but laugh. “Deal.”

I’d been upset when his first article had come out, and he’d practically accused me of being a murderer, and when the second one had shown up, saying I was attracting murders to my hometown. But Ash seems mostly harmless now that I know him, and if he’s willing to be more responsible with what he puts in this article, I’m willing to tell him what I know.

I start giving him details, and see him type A Shot in the 80% Dark into his notes program.

A Dark And Stormy Tea

A Tea Shop Mystery

by Laura Childs

A Dark and Stormy Tea (A Tea Shop Mystery)
Cozy Mystery
24th in Series
Berkley (August 9, 2022)
Hardcover ‏ : ‎ 320 pages
ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 0593200896

Digital ASIN ‏ : ‎ B09LH6VG4P

A possible serial killer on the loose sends tea maven Theodosia Browning into a whirlwind of investigation in this latest installment of the New York Times bestselling series.

It was a dark and stormy night, but that was the least of Theodosia Browning’s troubles. As she approaches St. Philips Graveyard, Theodosia sees two figures locked in a strange embrace. Wiping rain from her eyes, Theodosia realizes she has just witnessed a brutal murder and sees a dark-hooded figure slip away into the fog.

In the throes of alerting police, Theodosia recognizes the victim—it is the daughter of her friend, Lois, who owns the Antiquarian Bookshop next door to her own Indigo Tea Shop.

Even though this appears to be the work of a serial killer who is stalking the back alleys of Charleston, Lois begs Theodosia for help. Against the advice of her boyfriend, Detective Pete Riley, and the sage words of Drayton, her tea sommelier, amateur-sleuth Theodosia launches her own shadow investigation. And quickly discovers that suspects abound with the dead girl’s boyfriend, nefarious real estate developer, private-security man, bumbling reporter, and her own neighbor who is writing a true-crime book and searching for a big ending.

INCLUDES DELICIOUS RECIPES AND TEA TIME TIPS!

About Laura Childs

Laura Childs is the New York Times bestselling author of the Tea Shop Mysteries, Scrapbook Mysteries, and Cackleberry Club Mysteries. In her previous life she was CEO/Creative Director of her own marketing firm and authored several screenplays. She is married to a professor of Chinese art history, loves to travel, rides horses, enjoys fundraising for various non-profits, and has two Chinese Shar-Pei dogs.

Laura specializes in cozy mysteries that have the pace of a thriller (a thrillzy!) Her three series are:

The Tea Shop Mysteries – set in the historic district of Charleston and featuring Theodosia Browning, owner of the Indigo Tea Shop. Theodosia is a savvy entrepreneur, and pet mom to service dog Earl Grey. She’s also an intelligent, focused amateur sleuth who doesn’t rely on coincidences or inept police work to solve crimes. This charming series is highly atmospheric and rife with the history and mystery that is Charleston.

The Scrapbooking Mysteries – a slightly edgier series that take place in New Orleans. The main character, Carmela, owns Memory Mine scrapbooking shop in the French Quarter and is forever getting into trouble with her friend, Ava, who owns the Juju Voodoo shop. New Orleans’ spooky above-ground cemeteries, jazz clubs, bayous, and Mardi Gras madness make their presence known here!

The Cackleberry Club Mysteries – set in Kindred, a fictional town in the Midwest. In a rehabbed Spur station, Suzanne, Toni, and Petra, three semi-desperate, forty-plus women have launched the Cackleberry Club. Eggs are the morning specialty here and this cozy cafe even offers a book nook and yarn shop. Business is good but murder could lead to the cafe’s undoing! This series offers recipes, knitting, cake decorating, and a dash of spirituality.

Rook Campbell is broke, divorced, jobless, and in desperate need of steady employment, which is hard to come by in the small town of Rothdale, Kentucky. With the help of her friend and neighbor Bryan, she lands a good job at the Four Wild Horses Distillery and meets an attractive co-worker with lots of dating potential. Her life is finally headed in the right direction until a co-worker dies under suspicious circumstances and a shipment of rare small-batch bourbon goes missing. Worse, her personal life begins to unravel as her beloved grandmother falls ill. Normally she can depend on her ex, Cam, for help, but his new fiancée’s jealousy is getting in the way.
