    The local university’s Shakespeare troupe already had plenty of drama. Then their manager was murdered. 
    Fresh off her election win, Fenway Stevenson is ready to focus on her job as county coroner. But just hours after claiming victory, she's called to Nidever University, where the manager of a Shakespeare production has been found dead in a stairwell. The scene looks accidental—until Fenway spots signs of a struggle. 
    As the investigation unfolds, it's clear Jessica Marquez's death is no simple fall. Secrets swirl behind the curtain of the Merchant of Venice production, and Fenway begins to suspect the theater's drama didn't stop on stage. 
    Meanwhile, Fenway's father—still in jail following his shocking arrest for murder—casts a long shadow over her every move. Old wounds reopen, and a painful chapter from Fenway's past resurfaces in the form of a professor with dark secrets. 
    With her father behind bars, her relationship with the sheriff unraveling, and a murder investigation that's starting to smell like a political setup, Fenway must walk the razor-thin line between personal loyalty and professional duty. But in a town where alliances shift like sand and danger hides in plain sight, will Fenway's determination be enough to uncover the truth before someone else winds up dead? 
    Smart, suspenseful, and layered with emotional depth, The Upstaged Coroner is the fourth installment in the gripping Fenway Stevenson Mystery Series. Perfect for fans of Patricia Cornwell, J.D. Robb, and Louise Penny, this page-turner weaves forensic science, complex characters, and shocking twists into an unforgettable story. 
    The stage is set. The players are in motion. And Fenway is running out of time.

    Murder Most Foul is a dark, witty and fast-paced novel, from one of Britain’s best-loved screenwriters. 
    It’s 1593, Elizabeth I is Queen and everyone is terrified of the worst outbreak of plague in a generation. Shakespeare has only written six plays and is lagging behind his friend Christopher Marlowe, London’s leading playwright. 
     
    When Marlowe is stabbed to death in mysterious circumstances, rumours abound – but the one that won’t go away is that Shakespeare did it to remove his greatest rival. Will is determined to clear his name, and teams up with his old flame, Marlowe’s sister Ann, who has plenty of secrets of her own. 
     
    In their search to solve the crime, Will and Ann uncover a dark world of treachery, murder, and corruption – which in turn provides Shakespeare with scenes and characters which will appear in his greatest plays.

    Amidst the rocky beaches of the Oregon coast, Torte's beloved Sterling and Stephanie have been hired to take over the aging restaurant at the cliffside Whaleshead Resort. They're nervous about striking out on their own, but excited by the opportunity. From fresh fish caught the very same day to vegan options and handcrafted pastries, they're buzzing with ideas. What's even better is that Jules and the team from Torte have come out for opening weekend to cheer them on. 
     
     
     
    Despite some opening night jitters, the dinner is off with a bang. Guests and long-term residents of Whaleshead Resort are eager to taste the couple's creations. As the tickets begin to line up and guests pile in the front door, Jules and Carlos offer to roll up their sleeves and help in any way they can. 
     
     
     
    Stephanie is taking on every chef's nightmare—a fluffy chocolate soufflé—and Sterling is fast at work prepping shrimp linguini and pan-seared halibut when they suddenly hear screaming. Erik Morton, the manager of Whaleshead and their new boss, has taken a fatal fall down the steep and dangerous cliffside trail leading to the beach. Jules and her young protégés quickly realize this was no accident. Now, the team will have to juggle the investigation while keeping the restaurant—and Steph and Sterling's new jobs—from crashing like the waves along the cliffs.
