    Nora Roberts meets Yellowstone in this gripping new mystery series from USA Today bestselling author Pamela Fagan Hutchins—perfect for fans of small-town secrets, emotional suspense, and rugged romance. 
    Jennifer Herrington has everything she ever wanted—an elite job as a Texas prosecutor and a shot at becoming the youngest female DA in Houston history. But when her husband buys a crumbling lodge on Wyoming’s Bighorn Mountains, she’s forced to trade stilettos for snow boots—and she’s not thrilled about it. 
    Then a wealthy investor turns up dead in the lodge’s septic tank, a knife in his head… and the caretaker—gentle, grief-stricken George—is covered in blood with no memory of the night before. 
    Suddenly, Jennifer is defending the man everyone else believes is guilty. She’s convinced George didn’t do it—not the guy who rescues baby skunks, spoils an incontinent old dog, and mourns the wife he lost to the man now dead. But evidence piles up, a blizzard traps them in, and Jennifer’s own buried Wyoming past starts clawing to the surface. 
    With crossover characters from What Doesn’t Kill You, Delaney Pace, and Patrick Flint, this edge-of-your-seat mystery is packed with emotional stakes, vivid wilderness, and the kind of twisted turns only Pamela Fagan Hutchins can deliver. 
    Readers are raving: 
    “A Bob Ross painting with Alfred Hitchcock hidden among the trees.” 
    “Absolutely unputdownable wonder of a story.” 
    “A nail-biter... beautifully descriptive and deeply human.” 
    “Read it in one fell swoop—I could not put it down.” 
    Perfect for fans of C.J. Box, Sandra Brown, and Kristin Hannah—with a rugged twist!

    The New York Times–bestselling author of Devil's Bargain brings back two kick-ass female private investigators in a case of premonitions and peril. 
     
     
      
    While Jazz Callender is recuperating from nearly losing her life during their first case for the mysterious Cross Society, Lucia Garza hires a new investigator to their firm: none other than Ben McCarthy. The former Kansas City cop has finally been exonerated of murder, and just in time. Jazz and Lucia have received a new red letter. 
     
     
      
    But instead of instructions for a high-priority case, this missive contains nothing but a warning: "One of you has made a mistake." And it's on letterhead from the Cross Society's major adversary in a psychic war. With Ben filling them in on his past secretive dealings with the organization, Jazz and Lucia start to believe they may be in bed with the enemy, one that they've underestimated at their own peril . . .

    Rhianne Alkenn is thrust into the heart of a murder investigation as a police consultant. But when her gargoyle employee becomes the prime suspect, the investigation becomes personal.  
    She’s not very good with relationships or accepting help but a growing set of quirky friends won’t take no for an answer: her cheeky incubus best friend, her wise familiar Toto, a sassy half-gargoyle lawyer and a pathologist who can tell you what she is but would then have to kill you. 
    As the layers of the investigation unfold, Rhianne must navigate the relationships with her ambitious witch mother, elusive elf father, and a blossoming connection with tech mage Kai.  
    Oh, and did she mention that her powers are not supposed to exist? Her task: solve the case, keep her powers hidden, and then return to being a regular halfling. Piece of cake, right?

    Welcome to Darkly, where supernaturals are everywhere and murder isn’t far behind… 
    After Windsor Ebonwood’s love life and successful career as a book conservator vanish in one fell swoop, she’s determined to begin anew. Win moves to Darkly Island off the coast of Louisiana, where she’s been bequeathed an unusual bookshop and a charming home on the edge of a dark swamp. 
    Win gets to work settling into her new life in the sleepy Southern town but discovering Darkly’s heartless town alderman impaled on a gravestone wasn’t on the books. Nor was finding out about her family’s legacy as powerful witches responsible for protecting the bookshop at all costs. 
    While she is coming to terms with her powers, a new friend is accused of the murder and Win is convinced the allegation doesn’t ring true. She and her one-eyed cat familiar, Pyewacket–who has his own secrets to hide–step in to investigate. Between an irresistible alpha shifter and long buried family secrets, Win begins to realize there are more than fireflies and alligators lurking in the swamp. 
    Win will need to work fast because the killer is not done with their murderous rampage. And the questions Win’s asking are hitting too close to home for the killer’s comfort… 
    If you enjoy paranormal cozy mysteries spiced with jasmine-scented, sultry nights, don’t miss Tolling Bells & Dark Spells, Book One in A Darkly Southern Mystery series.
