We’ll be getting one new Cozy Mystery Series by a site author in July!
Diane Kelly will be releasing The Moonshine Shack Murder, the 1st in her new Southern Homebrew Mystery Series. Hattie Hayes is a moonshiner in Chattanooga, Tennessee, continuing a family tradition going back to prohibition (presumably a legal distiller, who has labelled their product as moonshine?). She’s quite content to continue the family tradition, and unlike many Cozy protagonists, appears to already be living in her hometown after leaving for many years – but this doesn’t protect her from a dad body turning up on her store’s doorstep, threatening the continued success of her business. Diane Kelly already writes the Tara Holloway Mystery Series, starring an IRS criminal investigations division agent, the Paw Enforcement Mystery Series, starring a police officer and her K-9 partner, and the House-Flipper Mystery Series, starring a house flipper.

Summer time is here! I know that technically summer doesn’t begin until June 20 this year, however, let’s face it, June is sort of the start of summer for most of us. Down here in San Antonio that means we have our more hot and humid days ahead of us. My husband and I lived in Panama, and some of our days here in San Antonio remind me a lot of the weather down there! (My husband was in the Air Force.)
