Reading Up On Murder (#1)
Reading about murder mysteries is one thing. Finding a dead body is another.
Harper Lansbury splits her time between working at the Marilee Island’s only library and manning the helm of a weekly book club. She loves reading a good murder mystery. When a local businessman running for mayor threatens to shut down the library and then ends up dead at the library, murder hits a little too close to home. Now she’s not just dealing with fictional murders, but one right outside her door. Harper is determined to solve the murder—even if it means stepping on the toes of the handsome new detective while she and the book club sneak around looking for clues. Can she help solve the mystery before a dead man manages to shut down the library for good, or will a real murder prove too much for this librarian?
Harper and her fellow book club ladies search for clues to save the library and tickle their love for a good mystery.
Books of Intrigue (#2)
Two mysterious books, one dead man, and a gaggle of intrigued book club members. It’s time for another book club adventure!
Donations to the library are usually good omens, but not when the benefactor ends up murdered by an apparent burglary gone wrong. The only problem is that Harper doesn’t believe it’s as simple as that. When two book connoisseurs from off-island arrive, along with a dangerously charming private investigator and the dead man’s ex-wife…well, the book club can’t resist much to the chagrin of a certain detective. Can Harper figure out what the two mysterious books are and why they were given to the library before the killer gets away? Or will the books be stolen from her safekeeping?
Harper and the book club were bitten by the sleuthing bug. Now they won’t rest until they uncover clues that lead right to the killer.
Dinner and a Murder (#3)
Harper didn’t expect her blind date to end with a dead chef in the kitchen—or a room full of suspects.
Harper Lansbury was content with working in the library and hosting a weekly book club. When her neighbor set her up on a blind date, Harper couldn’t think of a worse thing. At the restaurant, things seemed to be going well. Until the chef dropped dead in the kitchen before dessert was even served. To make matters worse, everyone who hated the chef was at that dinner—which means any of them could have killed the chef, even her date. All she wanted was a nice dinner date. What she ended up with was a dead chef, a lying date, and a detective who doesn’t know what to do with her. There are five suspects, no evidence, and a dead body. What’s a girl to do?
Harper and the book club ladies are on the prowl again to find the killer and the missing evidence. Harper won’t stop until she finds some answers and uncovers who killed the chef.
Hidden in Memories (#4)
Harper didn’t expect the past to repeat itself on happy, safe little Marilee Island—but an injured man turns her world upside down again.
It was a regular night of closing up the library when an injured man stumbles inside begging for help. Then gunshots are fired and Harper is whisked into another murder investigation. Her worst nightmare has come true—the past is back to haunt her. When the injured man wakes up with amnesia, it’s up to Harper and the book club ladies to uncover the clues hidden in his memory and catch the killer. There is a man with amnesia, no clear suspects, and Harper is haunted by her past. It will take the whole book club and a very worried detective to help piece things together.
Will Harper and the gang be able to figure out what’s going on and help John Doe recover his memories, or will the killer silence him forever?
A Deadly Competition (#5)
Harper was a librarian, not a beauty pageant judge. Yet she found herself in the middle of a contest—and another murder.
The book club ladies had swindled Harper into being a judge for a pageant—and right into the middle of another murder. When she joins the panel of judges for the Miss Marilee Island contest, she finds herself in the middle of an all out war between three major contestants. When one of them ends up dead, it’s up to Harper and the book club gals to solve the murder. With the recent murder of a beauty pageant queen so similar to something that happened in the past, Harper has to dig into that, avoid backstabbing contestants, and deal with her semi-romantic encounters with the handsome Viking detective. And when the killer targets Harper, things go from bad to worse. Now she has to solve the murder, figure out how she feels about the detective, and try to stay out of the murderer’s reach—all while judging a beauty contest. It’s all hands on deck to solve the murder and keep Harper alive long enough to sort out her love life.
Will Harper and the book club ladies be able to figure out who the backstabbing killer is, or will the killer get to Harper first?
Hunt for the Truth (#6)
Buried treasure on an island was a thing of legend until Harper found herself roped into a treasure hunt—and another murder.
After a week off the island, Harper Lansbury returns to find the locals in a tizzy over a treasure hunt. When Harper and the book club ladies find Leonard Shaw dead, it’s all hands on deck to figure out if the Shaw family treasure really exists—and if it’s worth killing for. Treasure hunters converge on the island and any one of them could have wanted Leonard dead. With so many suspects to choose from and little evidence to go off of, it comes down to finding the treasure first. The book club ladies put their heads together to solve the treasure-hunting riddle before the killer does. And when Harper becomes a target for the treasure hunters, things go from bad to worse. She has a library to run, a treasure map to decode, a treasure to find, and a budding romance with a handsome detective to figure out—all while solving a murder. It’s going to take all the book club ladies working together to solve this one, and maybe a push from the others for Harper to figure out her love life.
Will Harper and the book club ladies uncover where the treasure is buried or will the killer get to it first?
Hunt for the Truth (#7)
Harper expected her first date with Marc to end with a kiss—not murder.
After months of flirting, Harper Lansbury finally has her first date with the handsome detective. Everything went well until they found a dead body on the beach. But not just any dead body—Annabel Carver, starlet, America’s sweetheart on the silver screen. With a less-than-loving boyfriend, another actress for competition, and a stalker all on the island at the same time, Harper has plenty of suspects to look at. The main question she has to ask is, who hated Annabel enough to kill her? The book club ladies have a new mystery on their hands as they uncover the true price of fame and dig deeper into the people surrounding Annabel to discover the truth.
Can Harper figure out who killed the movie star before everyone leaves the island or will this be one ending that remains a mystery?
A Suspicion in Bloom (#8)
Christmas on the island was supposed to be full of cheer—not theft, murder, and mystery.
This was the first time Harper Lansbury hosted Christmas at her house on Marilee Island, and it was going well—until her parents stumbled on a dead body in the botanical gardens. The last thing Harper wants is to involve her parents in the investigation. That leads to secret book club meetings and sneaking around to talk to suspects. Another photojournalist in competition with the dead man makes a good suspect, but is it a simple case of jealousy? When a botanist ends up dead mere feet from where the first victim died, Harper suspects there’s more to the botanical gardens than meets the eye and not everyone is who they say they are. Harper and the book club have to race against time, keep her parents away from the investigation, and solve a murder all before Christmas.
Can Harper and the book club ladies figure out who’s behind the murders, or will Christmas be ruined?
