1-The Alpine Advocate
The debut of the Emma Lord murder mystery series.
After a year as publisher-editor of the Alpine Advocate, Emma Lord feels fine about her move to this small town in the foothills of Washington’s Cascade Mountains. What she really needs for her paper, though, is a big story. And she gets it-when handsome Mark Doukas, grandson of rich, old Neeny Doukas is murdered. Emma discovers that trying to get straight answers out of Neeny and his thin-lipped son is like poking a nest of sleeping rattlesnakes. What begins with an innocent story about the murdered man, ends with Emma conducting the most interesting, and probably the last, interview of her career from the wrong end of a .38….
2-The Alpine Betrayal
"Editor-publisher Emma Lord finds out that running a small-town newspaper is worse than nutty-it’s downright dangerous. Readers will take great pleasure in Mary Daheim’s new mystery."
Carolyn G. Hart
Sequel to THE ALPINE ADVOCATE.
When a local girl, Dani Marsh, returns to Alpine a star to shoot a Hollywood film, the tension in the air is so thick it crackles. Then at the annual Loggerama, Dani’s former husband, Cody Graff goes berserk with an axe and is later found dead. Reporting on on all the goings-on as the editor of the ADVOCATE, Emma Lord begins to suspect that neither she nor the sheriff, laconic Milo Dodge, is getting the real story. Why are there such strong feelings among those who knew Dani back when? Why so few tears for Cody Graff? Whence the impenetrable mystery that enfolds Alpine like a shroud? Emma’s nose for a story leads her straight into trouble….
3-The Alpine Christmas
Sly, sleuthing newspaperwoman Emma Lord is back on the case–in Book Three of the small-town whodunit series that’s becoming a big hit with mystery readers. The Christmas season brings brutal murder to the little town of Alpine, but when Emma tries to find the killer, she becomes a prime candidate for the obituary pages.
4-The Alpine Decoy
When a young man is shot in the head and a Black nurse, who has been experiencing problems with Alpine prejudice, is pinned with the murder, editor-publisher Emma Lord teams up with Vida Runkel to sniff out the truth.
6-The Alpine Fury
Wondering why the arrival of a Seattle banker is making local bank president Marv Petersen, his heirs, and his employees, unnaturally jittery, reporter Emma Lord soon finds herself investigating a bookkeeper’s murder.
7-The Alpine Gamble
THE ALPINE ADVOCATE IS ON A ROLL.
The big story is the five million dollar luxury spa that Los Angeles real estate developers want to build around Alpine’s mountainside mineral springs–hot news and fierce controversy for Advocate readers, and for the paper’s editor and publisher, Emma Lord.
Pro-spa Alpiners cite the prospect of sorely needed new jobs. Those against it predict glitz, sleaze, and an avalanche of "Californicators." No one foresees the murder that shocks the town. Aided by her House & Home editor, Vida Runkel, and tongue-tied Sheriff Milo Dodge, Emma lines up her biggest, blackest headlines and goes hunting–for a brilliant killer and the strange story behind an almost perfect crime. . . .
READ ALL ABOUT IT!
