Book Description
If you’re looking for a humorous historical small-town cozy who-done-it series featuring a smart and sassy amateur woman sleuth, you’ve come to the right place! Can a forward-thinking woman help the police solve a murder in a backward-thinking town? California, 1903: Smart, inquisitive, and a firm believer in the new progressive reforms, Adele Gossling seeks a new life after the devastating death of her father. She flees San Francisco for the small town of Arrojo, planning a life of peace and small pleasures with nothing more exciting than selling fountain pens to the locals in her stationery shop and partaking in the town’s favorite pastime: gossip. Peace is exactly what she doesn’t get when she discovers her neighbor’s dead body in her gazebo. The police think they have a firm suspect: the young man who was secretly engaged to the victim. But Adele and her clairvoyant new friend Nin Branch suspect he’s innocent. In spite of the raised eyebrows from Arrojo’s Victorian-minded citizens, they set out to prove the young man didn’t do it. But if he didn’t, who did? Can Adele and Nin solve this puzzling case involving a striped carnation, a diamond ring, a note, a muddy pair of boots, and a broken promise? If you love historical mysteries, comfy cozies, amateur detectives, female sleuths, small-town mysteries, humorous whodunits, and early 20th-century fiction set in America, you’ll love this series! Fans of Lee Strauss, Rosie Hunt, Sonia Parin, and R. A. Wallace will love these books too! Pick up your copy of The Carnation Murder for a fun, absorbing mystery set in Northern California at the turn of the 20th century. What early reviewers are saying: "Really well paced and researched appropriately for the era.” "The story comes alive.” "Great new series, the time period details are interesting and the mystery intriguing." ~~~ Don't forget to check out the other books in the Adele Gossling Mysteries!

Book Description
On Christmas Eve 2007, Judy and Wayne Anderson's daughter, Michele, and her boyfriend, Joseph McEnroe, arrived at their home for a family meal. Unbeknownst to them, their daughter was armed with a loaded 9 mm pistol and McEnroe was carrying a .357 Magnum. Both parents were callously shot dead by the pair and their bodies hidden from view. Two and a half hours later, Michele's brother Scott, his wife Erica and their two children, Olivia (5) and Nathan (3), arrived at the house. Within the hour, they too had been pitilessly slain, in an act of violence that was breath-taking in its scope and cruelty. With his highly-anticipated third book, Paul Sanders takes the reader inside every day of the trial of Michele Anderson, with his customary attention to detail, from December 2015 until March 2016. And in a unique digression from his other works, Sanders includes something he has never done before: An interview with one of the killers, Joseph McEnroe, at Walla Walla Penitentiary. Banquet of Consequences is the first of two books on what came to be known as the Carnation murders. Were the killings a premeditated act, or had the defendants acted in self defense? And what of the deaths of Olivia and Nathan? Who shot them and why? It would not be an easy task for a jury to decide. Look for Book Two: The Carnation Murders, "Beyond the Pale: Rogue Juror - The Joseph McEnroe Death Penalty Trial." Available Christmas Eve, 2017. Reader reviews for Paul Sanders: "Move over Ann Rule and Shanna Hogan and make way for America's newest crime writer!" "Paul Sanders is now among my favorite authors. Both of his books had me right there!" "The reader is taken into a world few of us who have ever received a jury summons will ever experience."

Book Description
"The Black Carnation" is a crime mystery novel set in London in the nineteenth century. Marietta Mazzucata was a brilliant Opera performer, a worthy successor to Grisi and Persiani, full of fire and dramatic force, not a mere musical box, twittering like a mechanical bird. Her private life was well guarded despite talk of many a young man's broken heart being tied to her. But the façade all comes down to a shocking explosion of dynamite, during the end of a performance at the Opera. An explosion that kills the famed singer instantly. Now, however, the tragic event of her death inspires the press to find out and publish all they could about her, in which case something would be found in her past life which would probably point to a reason for the manner of her death...

Book Description
Riches to rags. ... Chaos calms. ... Crime quiets. ... But does it really? After getting involved in two murder cases in the short time she's lived in picturesque Kelowna, divorcee and gardener Doreen Montgomery has developed a reputation almost as notorious as her Nan's. The only way to stop people from speculating, is to live a life of unrelieved boredom until the media and the neighbors forget about her. And Doreen aims to do just that with a tour of Kelowna's famed Carnation Gardens. Plants, more plants, and nothing whatsoever that anyone could object to. But when she sees a fight between a beautiful young woman and her boyfriend, she can't help but be concerned. Concerned enough that she follows the couple out of the parking lot and through town. And when gunshots interrupt the placid afternoon, it's too late to worry about how her nemesis, Corporal Mack Moreau, will feel about her getting involved in yet another of his cases. With bodies turning up in the carnations, and a connection to a cold case of a missing child from long ago, Doreen has her hands full, not least with trying to keep her involvement in the investigations a secret from her Nan, Mack Moreau, and especially the media. But someone's keeping up with Doreen's doings... and that someone can't afford for her to find the answers to the questions she's asking.
