A funny thing happened while I was writing A Cultivated Corpse. For months, I immersed myself in the world of garden clubs, landscaping projects, flowers, and dedicated gardeners. My protagonist, Hope Early, happily joins the Jefferson Garden Club and embraces her new hobby with far more enthusiasm than I’ve ever had for gardening.
Flowers, Gossip, and a Murder Investigation
There’s something about gardening that feels hopeful. Planting something small and watching it grow. Unfortunately for Hope Early, her new hobby in A Cultivated Corpse leads to something far less relaxing… a murder investigation.
A Stylish Start: Inside Murder Wears a Little Black Dress
If you love a cozy mystery with a little flair, a little charm, and a touch of style, I’d love to introduce you to one of my favorite places to spend time. Lucky Cove.
Murder Wears a Little Black Dress is the first book in my Resale Boutique Mystery series, and it’s where readers meet Kelly Quinn, a former Manhattan buyer who returns to her hometown ready for a fresh start. Her plan is simple. Turn her grandmother’s resale boutique into a thriving business and rebuild her life.
Of course, in cozy mystery fashion, things don’t go quite as planned.
