But getting entangled in murder investigations has a timeline of its own...It’s been a little over a year since Shelby started managing Nina’s Nimble Needle following her office-romance and career implosion, and Shelby’s mom has finally handed her the reins—technically, at least. Next, Shelby is excited to oversee two well-known needlepoint designers who will be participating in the town’s first two-week-long arts festival . . .Laura Bitters and Paul Bardo have each stitched up one-of-a-kind pillows that should be big wins for the Nimble Needle at the festival’s auction . . . until the pillows vanish amid a sudden string of shoplifting incidents.To add to the knot in Shelby’s stomach, Laura proves highly anxious, while Paul is an egomaniac who believes Laura has been stealing his customers for years.

She makes and sells custom teas out of her home. Which is why she initially refused to look into a recent case of a bar that had burned down.Yes, it was tragic that the owner's body was found inside. But this is an arson case, and what does she possibly know about arson?Except...one of the waitresses is missing.Who's pregnant.Who everyone thought was having an affair with the owner of the bar.How can Charlie say no to the owner's widow? And when Charlie accidentally finds the pregnant waitress, things start to take a strange turn.

Also known as “Aunt Charlie” from the award-winning Secrets of Redemption series. She's back, making teas and solving cases in this funny, twisty, cozy mystery series set in the 1990s in Redemption, Wisconsin. ABOUT MICHELE (PW) PARIZA WACEK A USA Today Bestselling, award-winning author, Michele taught herself to read at 3 years old because she wanted to write stories so badly. It took some time (and some detours) but she does spend much of her time writing stories now. Mystery stories, to be exact. They're clean and twisty, and range from psychological thrillers to cozies, with a dash of romance and supernatural thrown into the mix. If that wasn't enough, she posts lots of fun things on her blog, including short stories, puzzles, recipes and more, at MPWNovels.com. Michele grew up in Wisconsin, (hence why all her books take place there), and still visits regularly, but she herself escaped the cold and now lives in the mountains of Prescott, Arizona with her husband and southern squirrel hunter Cassie. When she's not writing, she's usually reading, hanging out with her dog, or watching the Food Network and imagining she's an awesome cook. (Spoiler alert, she's not. Luckily for the whole family, Mr. PW is in charge of the cooking.) While each book is a standalone, you may find it more enjoyable to read the books in order, which is: The Murder Before Christmas Ice Cold Murder Murder Next Door Murder Among Friends The Murder of Sleepy Hollow Red Hot Murder A Cornucopia of Murder Arson, Old Lace and Murder Masquerading as Murder (coming 2026) Other books in the Charlie Kingsley Mystery series include: A Grave Error (prequel) Loch Ness Murder A Wedding to Murder For Three French Hens and a Murder A Room For Murder Margaritas and Murder Secret Santa Murder (coming 2026) Entry Methods: * Arson, Old Lace and Murder (Charlie Kingsley Mysteries) by Michele (PW) Pariza Wacek #giveaway #win * Like MichelePWauthor on Facebook! * Follow themichelepw on Instagram * Follow Author https://mpwnovels.com/ on her website * Add the book on your WANT TO READ shelf on GoodReads! * Visit Jody on BookBub.com * Follow bibliophile_foodie on Instagram * Follow Books, Ramblings, and Tea on Instagram * Follow the meezcarriereads on Facebook * Visit FUONLYKNEW on Twitter * Follow Deal Sharing Aunt on Instagram * Visit Sarandipity on Twitter/X * Visit Christy's Cozy Corners on Twitter/X * Follow @dollycas on BlueSky * Follow @dollycas1 on Threads * Follow Escape With Dollycas Into A Good Book on Facebook * Visit Great Escapes Virtual Book Tours * Visit Ruff Drafts Author Debbie DeLouise.com * Subscribe to Salty Inspirations * Visit Sapphyria's Book Reviews on Twitter/X * Visit Baroness' Book Trove on Twitter/X

With visions of colorful tulips and delicate daffodils in mind, Danika and her mother browse through the local garden center, where they can’t help but notice a confrontation between out-of-towner Sebastian Krane and the local cashier. Unfortunately, as Krane storms off, aggravated and not paying attention, he hops into his BMW, and crashes right into Mrs. Delaney as she’s backing up in her borrowed pickup truck. As if that weren't enough to put a damper on her sunny mood, Krane then has the nerve to file a lawsuit against her. But when Dani shows up at his mansion to try to straighten things out, she finds him dead, with a knife in his back. Apparently, someone had it out for Sebastian. Someone other than her mother. A fact Dani sets out to prove with the help of her sidekicks, Gwen and Eli, wading through a slew of shady suspects from the victim's stormy past. Can Dani clear her mother's name and find the truth behind Krane's murder? Or will Dani be in danger of pushing up daisies herself this spring?

ABOUT LAURA CHILDS Laura Childs is the New York Times bestselling author of the Tea Shop Mysteries, Scrapbook Mysteries, and Cackleberry Club Mysteries.

She is married to a professor of Chinese art history, loves to travel, rides horses, enjoys fundraising for various non-profits, and has two Chinese Shar-Pei dogs.

New Orleans’ spooky above-ground cemeteries, jazz clubs, bayous, and Mardi Gras madness make their presence known here! The Cackleberry Club Mysteries – set in Kindred, a fictional town in the Midwest. In a rehabbed Spur station, Suzanne, Toni, and Petra, three semi-desperate, forty-plus women have launched the Cackleberry Club. Eggs are the morning specialty here and this cozy cafe even offers a book nook and yarn shop. Business is good but murder could lead to the cafe’s undoing!

A sharp tongue. An even sharper mind. A Victorian sleuth, criminals overlook at their peril.1862. A new home in a prospectors’ town, a new life, and two steadfast admirers: Alyssa Chalmers’ future is secure among her friends. But when Captain Moore sends a message, begging for her help, she can’t say no. With the doctor and the First Officer by her side, she travels to Portland, Oregon. She finds a situation worse than she feared. Two of the captain’s crew have gone missing, and the local marshal is adamant they simply jumped ship. Even the discovery of a body is unable to change his mind. Captain Moore knows better. He is convinced that something sinister is going on, and he needs sharp-witted Alyssa and her sleuthing partners to figure it out. But dark secrets and vices are lurking everywhere. Alyssa needs all her wits to figure out who to trust - and how to save the missing men before there’s another murder. Death at the Dock is the third mystery in this captivating series that transports readers back to the 1860s, with a heroine determined to make her own way in a society made for men. Perfect for fans of Rhys Bowen’s Molly Murphy and Elizabeth Peters’ Amelia Peabody. ABOUT CARMEN RADTKE Carmen has spent most of her life with ink on her fingers and a dangerously high pile of books and newspapers by her side. She has worked as a newspaper reporter on two continents. When she found herself crouched under her dining table, typing away on a novel between two earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand, she realised she was hooked for life. The shaken but stirring novel made it to the longlist of the Mslexia competition, and her next book and first mystery, The Case Of The Missing Bride, was a finalist in the Malice Domestic competition in a year without a winner. Since then she has penned several more cozy mysteries, including the Jack and Frances series set in the 1930s. The cozy midlife witch series featuring Bex Merriweather and her cat familiar are the latest addition to her literary output. In real life, she’s only spilled blood once, when she swatted a fly, and even that was an accident. Although she’s a devoted cat servant, her feline companion doesn’t talk. Yet. Carmen now lives in Italy with her human and her four-legged family.

David enlists Gayle's help—and the help of an unlikely stranger with secrets of his own—as he attempts to find his true family, whoever they are. Thrilling, exploratory, and propulsive, Have You Seen Him is a story of lost identity, dangerous secrets, and a deeply personal pursuit of the truth.
