A heartwarming cozy mystery series about losing everything, taking a chance, and starting again.

After suffering a personal tragedy Abby Sullivan buys a huge old seaside mansion she has never even seen, packs up her life in San Francisco, and moves to Holiday Bay Maine, where she is adopted, quite against her will, by a huge Maine Coon Cat named Rufus, a drifter with her own tragic past named Georgia, and a giant dog with an inferiority complex named Ramos. What Abby thought she needed was alone time to heal. What she ended up with was, an inn she never knew she wanted, a cat she couldn’t seem to convince to leave, and a new family she’d never be able to live without.

In book 17 in the series, Abby joins Colt as he investigates the death of a local man who died after eating pudding dosed with poison during a community dinner. Was the man targeted or was the poison in the pudding a random act set into motion by a madman intent on murder?

Meanwhile, Thanksgiving is only a few days away and several guests who’ve visited the inn in the past return to spend the holiday with Abby, Georgia, and the rest of the Inn at Holiday Bay family. In addition to the return cast, a couple is looking for their runaway granddaughter and another is trying to make the best of things after tragedy struck his family.

This Book Club just turned into a Murder Club.

Halloween in Brambleberry Bay promises a spooky season of frights, fights, and a dash of delight—where the only thing scarier than the dark is what lurks within it. Candy and pumpkins abound as trick-or-treaters run amok—but in this quaint small town by the sea, a serial killer might just be on the loose as well.

It’s so spine-chilling, it’s to die for! RECIPE INCLUDED!

A mind reader. Talking pets. An arrogant homicide detective. A murder club. And a corpse.

Welcome to the club. Getting in was easy. Getting out can be murder.

Living in Brambleberry Bay can be a real killer.

It’s criminally cozy.

Halloween in Brambleberry Bay is usually a time for pumpkin carving, costume contests, and candy corn binges. But this year, the jack-o-lanterns aren’t the only things lighting up the night—there’s a killer on the loose. And with the bodies piling up, Hattie and Killion are left wondering if it’s the work of a serial killer.

Willoughby Hall has opened its wicked arms to the residents of Brambleberry Bay as it plays host to the Halloween Hollow Festival on its sprawling thirty-three acre estate. But a real body turns up in the makeshift graveyard and soon the residents of Brambleberry Bay are wrapped up in a mystery darker than the seasonal espresso blends.

The Halloween Hollow Festival may be renowned for its extravagant decorations but as of late it’s become the backdrop for deadly homicide that is as frightening as any haunted house.

Between bobbing for apples and dodging deadly traps, my sweet cat, Cricket, and our golden retriever buddy, Rookie, must navigate through the maze of clues and suspects. The closer we get to solving the case, the mystery only seems to deepen, revealing that beneath the festive façade, Halloween Hollow harbors dark secrets of its own.

When the guest author turns up dead, Abby realizes that clues to the author’s death could be found in the new novel the woman had yet to release. Using her own sleuthing skills, Abby jumps into the investigation after it becomes clear that it just might take an author to find the meaning in the pages.

Meanwhile it is weeks before Halloween and the inn is filled with guests looking for a spooky weekend retreat. Join Abby, Georgia, Jeremy, Nikki, and Mylie as they host a series of events designed to provide thrills and chills to all who dare to venture within.
