One New Cozy Mystery Series/Holiday Cozy Coming August 2021

We’ll be getting one new Cozy Mystery Series by a site author in August, which will also be a holiday-themed Cozy!

Carol J. Perry will be putting out Be My Ghost, the first in her new Haunted Haven Mystery Series, as well as a Halloween-themed Cozy Mystery! Maureen Doherty has just lost her job as a sportswear buyer when the department store she works for declares bankruptcy, but has a ray of light when she has an unexpected and mysterious inheritance, an inn in Florida. She decides that it must be a sign, and banks everything on a new career – but might quickly have second thoughts when she finds a corpse on the property – as well as a slew of ghosts! Perry is also the author of the Witch City Mystery Series, starring a reporter in Salem, Massachusetts.
