Publisher's summary
In the quaint town of Amblewood, Booked Bliss is the heart of the community—a cozy bookstore where neighbors gather, stories come to life, and mysteries are best kept on the shelves.
But when famed author Samuel Rowley dies suddenly during the weekly book club meeting, the quiet comfort of the store is shattered. The town’s beloved barista, Eliza Harrington, can’t help but suspect there’s more to Samuel’s death than meets the eye—especially when the police suggest foul play.
With her trusty orange tabby, Agatha, by her side, and her sharp intuition honed by years of reading Agatha Christie novels, Eliza delves into the tangled lives of her book club members. Each one had a reason to despise Samuel—old grudges, buried secrets, and broken promises swirl around the mystery. But when a mysterious bracelet surfaces, Eliza realizes that the victim may have been hiding a few secrets of his own.
As Eliza sorts through cryptic clues, red herrings, and the complex dynamics of her small town, she must piece together the truth before another chapter of tragedy unfolds. Can she clear her bookstore’s name, or will the pages of Amblewood’s peaceful existence be forever stained by Samuel’s demise?
Join Eliza and Agatha in this charming cozy mystery filled with literary intrigue, quirky characters, and a cat with a knack for finding clues!
Perfect for fans of bookstore cozies, small-town mysteries, and a dash of feline intuition!

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind." Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

Story
Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

Story
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
