(These are the mysteries by authors who are currently on the Cozy Mystery site.)

I have been updating the site during the last few days and while doing so, I noticed that three new Cozy Mystery series will be released by some of the site’s authors. That’s pretty good news, in my book. It seems like just last year we were all discussing how a lot of authors were being dropped by their publishers, and now there will be three new series. This seems like a bonanza!

 J.J. Cook (aka Joyce and Jim Lavene & Ellie Grant) is going to be bringing us the new Biscuit Bowl Food Truck Mystery Series. (The first book in the series is titled Death on Eat Street.) The series will follow Zoe Chase, who has bought herself a diner in Mobile, Alabama. Unfortunately her diner needs a lot of improvements and is located in a somewhat icky part of town. In order to afford all of the diner’s renovations she buys a food truck so that she can make some money. Zoe serves southern fried food, with fried biscuit bowls being her specialty item on her menu.

Sofie Ryan (aka Sofie Kelly) will be starting a new series in April. It’s called the Second Chance Cat Mystery Series. Most of you already know that as Sofie Kelly she writes the Magical Cat Mystery Series. (The Whole Cat and Caboodle is the first book in the Second Chance Cat Mystery Series.) Sarah Grayson owns the Second Chance shop in North Harbor, Maine. It’s a second-hand shop in which Sarah sells items she has refurbished. Sarah is accompanied by Elvis, her big, black rescue/stray cat. Actually it was Elvis who adopted Sarah, and it seems like he made a very wise choice.

I have just put up a new page on the Cozy Mystery site that I will be updating as I find out about our authors’ new mystery series:
