Sinopsis

The first three books in 'Ruth Finlay Mysteries', a series of cozy mystery novels by Isobel Blackthorn, now available in one volume!
 
Murder In Myrtle Bay: When feature writer Ruth Finlay's old tennis coach is found dead, she discovers that there's no lack of people who harbored a grudge against the victim, and a tangled web of family ties and lies begins to unravel. Together with her friend Doris, can Ruth find the killer in time to avert a second murder?
 
Too Bright for Murder: Who killed Burt Braithwaite, and why? With too many suspects, only one small clue and few leads to follow up on, Ruth is desperate to find answers. To complicate things further, her neighbour and sidekick Doris disappears at the local farmer’s market. Running out of time, can Ruth find the killer before it's too late?
 
A Cape, A Rock and A Murder: With a feature to write and the promise of romance in the air, Ruth is reluctant to investigate another mysterious death. But Doris has other ideas, and drags Ruth into the confusing world of a local family's inheritance dispute. With few clues and many culprits, their investigations seem to be going nowhere - until a shocking discovery turns the whole case on its head.

    Nothing puts a damper on the holiday spirit . . . 
     
     
     
    Quite like a murder. 
     
     
     
    It's holiday festival time in picturesque Blue Valley, Tennessee, which means there'll be plenty of fun, and an onslaught of tourists coming to town. This year, Paper Owl owner and amateur sleuth Alice Maguire is helping out with organizing the Hometown Holidays Festival. 
     
     
     
    The festival features a week chock full of activities, beginning with the Bowl Full of Jelly 5k Fun Run, and leading into the Mistletoe Market, the Winter Wonderland, and the annual Tinsel Theater's production of A Christmas Carol. 
     
     
     
    Main Street is decorated to the nines, and the rooftop garden that Alice shares with her fellow sleuthers is cozier than ever. Franny will be whipping up plenty of hot chocolate, and Alice's budding romance with Luke Evans is going smoothly. 
     
     
     
    Life is good in the quaint little town, and it's shaping up to be a perfectly wonderful holiday, but when a body is discovered at the 5K, it'll be up to Alice, Owen, and Franny to make sure that Blue Valley's Hometown Holidays Festival gets back on track—and that means they'll have to catch a murderer.

    The New York Times bestselling author returns with a mystery with a touch of magical realism and a strong, female bookstore owner and bibliotherapist at its heart. 
     
      
     
    Miracle Springs, North Carolina, is famed for its healing springs. But bookstore owner Nora Pennington has a tendency to land in a different kind of hot water. Though she loves to practice bibliotherapy by finding the perfect books for her customers while listening to their secrets, she also likes to bury her nose in the occasional local crime . . . 
     
     
     
    Nora escaped her past a decade ago. So it feels like a visit from another world when Kelly Walsh—the woman her ex-husband left her for—walks through the door of Miracle Books along with her son, a sweet, serious boy with a talent for origami. Kelly hasn't come to gloat, though. As it turns out, she's been dumped too. She's also terribly ill, and all she wants from Nora is forgiveness. 
     
     
      
    Shockingly, however, this woman who's been the victim of so much misfortune is about to become a murder victim. Who would do such a thing? Certainly not Nora, but that doesn't stop the gossip and suspicion—especially after Kelly's brother claims that he saw the two women arguing. 
     
     
      
    In seeking justice for Kelly, The Secret, Book, and Scone Society joins forces with the sheriff's department, but they've barely begun their probe when life throws another wrench. After serving a twenty-year sentence, Estella's father returns to Miracle Springs. And when his past comes back to haunt him, it might be more than the four friends can handle.

    Wedding Planner Kate Ludlow is back with her fun circle of small-town New England friends. Life is clipping along well for Kate. Her wedding season is off to a great start; she has reconnected with her former high school boyfriend, and her teen daughter is happy and looking forward to a fun summer. At the town's traditional kick-off to summer party, "Strawberry Moon," Jack Malone, the town's parodical son, surprises the population with his appearance. He's the best baseball player the whole of New England has ever produced, and he now plays professional baseball in Los Angeles. He hasn't been home in years but has returned home to marry a local girl. He taps Kate to be his wedding planner, and she couldn't be happier; what a boon this will be for her business!     Jack reconnects with old friends and apparently old enemies, too, as his body is found in the Connecticut River on his third day home. Jack's high school girlfriend and Kate's best friend, Jen, is the prime suspect. She can't or won't give an alibi for the time of Jack's death. But she's not the only person who looks guilty. A new business partner has come to Eastbury looking for Jack, claiming Jack cheated him in a business deal gone wrong. Then there's the high school rival who lost everything in a decade's old confrontation with Jack. The state police leading the investigation into Jack's death feel certain Jen is their killer, so Kate has to act. If Jen won't help herself, Kate will have to step in to save her, but this won't help her fledgling relationship with her old/new love, Brian, who is Eastbury's lead detective.
