Do You Know The Lantern Man? An Elmira Book Club Mystery
(Available in print or as e-book)
“A wonderfully imaginative and witty mystery that blends humor, intrigue,
and a touch of the supernatural… Equal parts cozy mystery and whimsical
fantasy, this book is a delightful page-turner that will charm readers from
beginning to end.”
Madison Pafford, Goodreads Reviewer.
Members of The Reading Club of Retired and Capable Ladies learn from their
September book that acquiring new skills keeps their brains younger. In
October, they agree to try practicing magic, and their naïve attempts set loose
energies that ricochet through their lives like negative ions after a lightning
strike. The results lead to police accusations over a poisoned, comatose man,
the accidental release of a specter from a book, and the unwanted attention
of misogynist conjurors belonging to the Guild of the Supreme Brotherhood of
Manroots.
Relative-ly Dead: A Family Tree Mystery
(Available in print or as e-book)
“This book has friendships, mystery and action. I couldn’t put it down until I finished reading it in the early morning. It is a great book and it would make a good movie.”
Lavada Haga, Goodreads Reviewer
Genealogist Betts Harvey prides herself on spotlighting missing ancestral links and restoring life to dying branches of family trees. When a client asks her to find an heir for a centuries-old book of herbal recipes and seeds, the outcome is a brutal case of lights out in a cold alley. Someone wants the book badly enough to kill for it. Determined to protect the heirloom, Betts works to expose the murderer with the help of Warren, her retired firefighter boyfriend, and Philly, coffee-break buddy and local mud-run champion. Trouble doubles when police suspect Betts. How does a crime novice keep the law at bay and protect herself and her friends from a poisoner, one who has her name at the top of a killer to-do list?
The communities in these two books are 40 miles apart. As the women in both books struggle to solve separate but related mysteries, they all meet in the final chapter of Do You Know the Lantern Man?
