A Chapter on Murder

I loved writing murder mysteries, until I was thrust into the centre of one … It’s Christmas in Riddleton and crime novelist turned amateur sleuth, Jen, is in desperate need of a cozy festive season running the town's local bookstore.

But, between trying to drum up business for Ravenous Readers and attempting to finish her latest novel, Jen is totally run off her feet.

Matters get worse, however, when a man's body is found outside the bookstore, along with a scrap of paper in his pocket with none other than Jen's address on it!

To solve the murder – and clear her own name – Jen must, once again, become Riddleton's best detective.

The stakes have never been higher and the pressure is on – but with the help of her best friend, Brittany, and trusty dog, Savannah, can Jen catch the killer, finish her novel and save Ravenous Readers before time runs out? Fans of Agatha Christie, Lauren Elliott and Ellery Adams will be hooked by this Christmas bookish cozy mystery, which will leave you guessing right up until the final page.
