Schooled in Murder (2025)
(Campus Sleuth Mystery, book 1)
Victoria Gilbert
"Schooled in Murder is a first-rate debut for a wonderful new series! Talented author Victoria Gilbert has crafted an intelligent and skillfully told mystery with plenty of twists to keep readers turning the pages.

There's No Murder Like Show Murder (2024)
(Backstage Mystery, book 1)
M S Greene
"There's No Murder Like Show Murder is a sparkling whodunnit set backstage at a venerable but cash-strapped regional theater. Author M.S. Greene expertly conjures the unique esprit de corps of that world, and he's created a memorable cast of characters led by whip-smart yet lovable Tasha Weaver, the costume shop manager of the Eastbrook Playhouse. When Tasha is forced into the role of amateur sleuth to solve a murder (and save the theater) this intricately plotted cozy mystery will keep readers guessing - and rooting for Tasha - till the last page. A ton of fun!"
