Book Description
Not all widows are elderly...and not all ladies are proper. If one more person gives Rosemary Lillywhite unwanted advice on when to stop mourning the loss of her beloved husband, she fears she will lose control of her sensibilities. All she wants is to be left alone to drown her misery in a glass of gin and tonic, but when Grace Barton knocks on the door of her dead husband’s investigative office, Rosemary faces a choice: come out of hiding or turn away someone in need of help. As Grace recounts her tale of intrigue, Rosemary discovers a shared connection with the woman that has her accepting an invitation she'd just as soon turn down. With her best friend--bright young thing Vera Blackburn--by her side, Rosemary trades her widow weeds for a party dress and heads to a fancy do at Barton Manor. The drinks flow freely, but there’s an undercurrent of unease until finally, the night ends in murder--one in which Rosemary's brother becomes the prime suspect! What’s worse, the handsome chief inspector on the case is a man she knows well: he was her husband’s best mate, and he takes a dim view of lady detectives--or perhaps just of Rosemary becoming one. What will it take for Rosemary to solve the crime before her brother hangs for a murder he didn’t commit? Book one in The Mrs. Lillywhite Investigates series. Are you ready to escape to the roaring twenties? For fans of Beth Byers, Leighann Dobbs, Lee Strauss, and cozy historical murder mysteries. A light, cozy mystery with no swearing, graphic scenes, or cliffhangers.

Murder is for the crows. There's a mass murderer loose on the streets of London, and he's dead set on making Rosemary Lillywhite his next victim.

In order to clear her name, Rosemary will have to delve deep in to a murderer's sordid past. She'll also have to continue keeping secrets--no matter what it does to her relationship with Max. Now, everyone's a suspect in a case that's even more twisted than murder. Book eight in The Mrs. Lillywhite Investigates series. Are you ready to escape to the roaring twenties?

Book Description
INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER Detective Elise King investigates a man’s disappearance in a seaside town where the locals and weekenders are at odds with each other in this suspenseful new novel from the #1 bestselling author of The Widow. Elise King is a successful and ambitious detective—or she was before a medical leave left her unsure if she'd ever return to work. She now spends most days watching the growing tensions in her small seaside town of Ebbing—the weekenders renovating old bungalows into luxury homes, and the locals resentful of the changes. Elise can only guess what really happens behind closed doors. But Dee Eastwood, her house cleaner, often knows. She’s an invisible presence in many of the houses in town, but she sees and hears everything. The conflicts boil over when a newcomer wants to put the town on the map with a giant music festival, and two teenagers overdose on drugs. When a man disappears the first night of the festival, Elise is drawn back into her detective work and starts digging for answers. Ebbing is a small town, but it's full of secrets and hidden connections that run deeper and darker than Elise could have ever imagined.
