Book Description
Final resting place? Deck chair. Sheila Mackey has a secret. To the world, she's the author of a blockbuster book. Her wily great-aunt, the actual author, orchestrated this mutually beneficial masquerade. Now her aunt's retiring and Sheila must draft Act Two of her own life. A cruise across the Atlantic on the Diversion is supposed to be the perfect time to do that. Two problems. First, her great-aunt saddles her with an irksome relative. Second, Sheila finds a dead body on deck. She realizes she knows a whole lot more about the interactions of the victim and suspects than the ship's officials do. She's drawn into sleuthing, but finds herself hampered by a well-meaning but overprotective would-be Dr. Watson. Along with trying to keep her huge secret while digging up those of the victim and the suspects. If you like mysteries about the inner world of writers, you’ll love USA Today bestselling author Patricia McLinn’s newest whodunit traditional mystery series with humor – “Secret Sleuth” — where even the sleuth has secrets (and a rescue dog named Gracie, from the second book on.) Get on board to sail away with crime, clues, and memorable characters. For readers of Sally Handley, BJ Mountford, Teri Barnett, Mary Mead, Barry Finlay, Chelsea Field, Colleen Mooney, Kathleen Troy, Lucy Emblem.

Book Description
The dreaded words: “We have to talk.” Sleuth-with-a-big-secret Sheila Mackey says that to Teague O’Donnell just before this book starts. Will she spill all her hidden background to the guy she’s dating? It’s even more complicated since he’s a detective-once-more, working for the local sheriff’s department as an investigator – not good for secrets. And what about her sleuthing partner, Clara? Is it time to let her in on all of Sheila’s secrets? But what if Clara says anything at their favorite hangout spot -- the dog park, with Gracie, Lulu, and Murphy. The dogs will hold their tongues, but not the humans. One slip there and it’s all over North Bend County. Ah, but Sheila’s not the only one with secrets. Or surprises. Especially not when secrets, surprises, complicated relationships, partners on the outs, and – of course – dog play draw Sheila and Clara into investigating a murder. “Beautifully combined LOL humour with twist and turn mystery."

Book Description
A quiet lakeside town in western New York state is the new home of Manhattan artist Chloe Abbington and the backdrop for murder in this series debut by Bailee Abbott. For Chloe Abbington, the transition from fine art painter in New York City to painting-event business owner in charming Whisper Cove is more than a little jarring. But when poison-pen journalist Fiona Gimble writes a viciously negative review of the newly opened Paint with a View, Chloe learns that critics are the same everywhere. And when she finds Fiona's body behind her shop with a painting knife in her neck, Chloe realizes that this picture-perfect town offers anything but peace and quiet. Suddenly, bustling Artisan Alley is a crime scene, and Chloe is the prime suspect. Her sister and business partner, Izzie, isn't much help--she's busy running the shop, and besides, she has secrets of her own. As shrewd Detective Barrett tries to paint her into a corner, Chloe soon finds that Fiona had plenty of enemies. The Whisper Cove Gazette columnist wielded her pen like a sword, slicing and dicing just about every shop owner in the lakeside town. With the help of her affectionate canine buddy, Max, Chloe sets out to prove that she's been framed for Fiona's murder. But she'd better learn the fine art of detection quickly, before the real killer paints the town red again. Otherwise, she may end up trading in her paint smock for an orange jumpsuit...or a green burial plot.
