Join professors Olivia and Polly as they sleuth their way through each semester. Death by Suspenders This semester is going to be a killer... Olivia and Polly, professors at Spencer University, are ready for a new and exciting fall semester. But when fellow professor David March is found hanging in the academic building, the women quickly realize that this particular year is going to be a killer. Determined to uncover the murderer’s identity, Olivia and Polly start investigating. There’s only one problem—no one liked David March. But college professors aren't murderers—or are they? Textbook Murder Spencer University's newest law professor is about to get an education in murder. Brand new law professor Chloe Parsons loves the idea of starting slow and teaching a nice, easy summer class at Spencer University.

But when she discovers the body of Bill Peterson, a fellow law professor, in his office, she realizes the summer semester is heating up. Knowing he was smack-dab in the middle of a high-profile embezzlement case, Chloe decides to get to the bottom of this murder.

Killer Classes What happened to the president of Spencer University? All English professor Olivia Little wants is an easy and uneventful fall semester. But when the president of the university doesn't show up for the fall semester kickoff meeting, Olivia's intuition kicks in. Something is definitely amiss. The president would never be a no-show to his own event. As Olivia starts to dig into the president's affairs, one thing is certain—someone doesn't want him found. Can Olivia find him in time or will this semester be DOA? Christmas Caper Someone is dreaming of a dark Christmas… Spencer University’s Special Event Coordinator Penelope Hill thrives on turning her fundraisers into the biggest celebrations on campus.

Book Description
It's a cold, snowy December in the upstate New York town of Millers Kill, and newly ordained Clare Fergusson is on thin ice as the first female priest of its small Episcopal church. The ancient regime running the parish covertly demands that she prove herself as a leader. However, her blunt manner, honed by years as an army pilot, is meeting with a chilly reception from some members of her congregation and Chief of Police Russ Van Alystyne, in particular, doesn't know what to make of her, or how to address "a lady priest" for that matter. The last thing she needs is trouble, but that is exactly what she finds. When a newborn baby is abandoned on the church stairs and a young mother is brutally murdered, Clare has to pick her way through the secrets and silence that shadow that town like the ever-present Adirondack mountains. As the days dwindle down and the attraction between the avowed priest and the married police chief grows, Clare will need all her faith, tenacity, and courage to stand fast against a killer's icy heart. In the Bleak Midwinter is one of the most outstanding Malice Domestic winners the contest has seen. The compelling atmosphere-the kind of very cold and snowy winter that is typical of upstate New York-will make you reach for another sweater. The characters are fully and believably drawn and you will feel like they are your old friends and find yourself rooting for them every step of the way.

Book Description
Tricia Miles—owner of Haven’t Got a Clue, the best mystery bookstore in Stoneham, New Hampshire—once again plays amateur sleuth as she is unexpectedly reunited with a man from a chapter of her life she closed long ago… The town of Stoneham is a haven for bookstores, but it is sadly lacking in bed-and-breakfasts. Fortunately Pippa and Jon Comfort’s Sheer Comfort Inn is about to open, and the couple has offered some locals a free night as a trial run. But it won’t be so easy to sleep after Tricia makes two startling discoveries: Pippa’s murdered body in the backyard, and the fact that Pippa’s husband, Jon, is actually Harry Tyler, a man Tricia loved—and believed dead—for nearly twenty years. Though Harry is the prime suspect, Tricia doesn’t believe him capable of murder, even though he’s led a life of lies. Especially when she discovers that Pippa had a few secrets of her own—some that may have been worth killing for. Includes recipes.
