One New Cozy Mystery Series Coming February 2022

We’ll have a single new Cozy Mystery series coming out in February 2022!

Jeanne M. Dams will be releasing Murder in the Park, which will be the first in the Oak Park Village Mystery Series. Elizabeth Fairchild is a relatively recent widow following the first World War. By 1925, she lives with her weatlhy parents in Oak Park, Illinois. One of her closest friends is Mr. Anthony, owner of the local antiques store – but unfortunately, he is murdered behind his shop. When one of her family friends is accused of the crime, Elizabeth will need to expose the true killer. Dams is also the author of the Dorothy Martin Mystery Series, starring a retired American schoolteacher in England, and the Hilda Johansson Mystery Series, starring a maid in 1920s Indiana.
