Every once in a while I have Cozy Mystery news that I simply cannot keep to myself. Of course, I share it with my husband, but that almost doesn’t count. (I usually get a “That’s nice.” type of response from him…) I have a feeling that some of you all will be happier about some of these Cozy Mystery tidbits than my husband was!<\/p>\n
If you’re all caught up with Allyson K. Abbott<\/a><\/strong>‘s Mack’s Bar Mystery Series<\/strong>, you can look forward to at least three more books in that series. And, as if Allyson K. Abbott’s news isn’t great enough, her “AKA” Annelise Ryan<\/a><\/strong> has gotten the go-ahead for at least three more Mattie Winston Mystery Series<\/strong> books! That’s double the terrific news for this talented author and her fans.<\/p>\n Good news for fans of Juliet Blackwell<\/a><\/strong>‘s Haunted Home Renovations Mystery Series<\/strong>. She is scheduled to bring us a 7th book in that series.<\/p>\n Here’s super good news for Cajun Country Mystery Series<\/strong> fans: Ellen Byron<\/a><\/strong> has the green light to release books 3 & 4 in that very Cozy New Orleans series. (I told you it was good news!)<\/p>\n And, for those of you who are fans of Jane K. Cleland<\/a><\/strong>‘s Josie Prescott Antiques mysteries<\/strong> AND fans of audiobooks: her Ornaments of Death<\/em> (Christmas theme) is already in audio format, and three more of her mysteries are set to be made audible as well (Deadly Threads<\/em>, Lethal Treasure<\/em>, & Blood Rubies<\/em>).<\/p>\n I know there are a lot of Amanda Flower<\/a><\/strong> fans out there. Well, you will probably be over-joyed to find out that she will be writing a new Amish-themed Cozy Mystery series: the Amish Sweetshop Mystery Series<\/strong>. The sleuth is a chocolatier who visits her Amish grandparents in Ohio, and stays for a longer amount of time than she had expected. (No spoilers here!)<\/p>\n OK, so I know everyone who reads Cozy Mysteries has heard about Carolyn Hart<\/a><\/strong>. Her Death on Demand series<\/strong>\u00a0is going strong, and she will be bringing us a new one. Carolyn Hart is also scheduled to bring us a new Bailey Ruth Ghost Mystery<\/strong>. (How about that for good Cozy Mystery news?)<\/p>\n Calling all D.E. Ireland<\/a><\/strong> fans! Remember, Ireland is a duo of authors. One of them (Sharon Pisacreta) will write the new Berry Basket Mystery Series<\/strong> using the Sharon Farrow<\/strong> moniker. The Berry Basket series will take place near Lake Michigan and will feature a berry shop owner.<\/p>\n Also, Laura Levine<\/a><\/strong>‘s Jaine Austen Mystery Series<\/strong> fans will be happy to see that she will be writing at least three more mysteries after this year’s release in June. Great news!<\/p>\n Jess Lourey<\/a><\/strong> (of the Murder by the Month<\/strong> series) will be starting the new Witch Hunt Mystery Series<\/strong>, which she will be writing as Jessica Lourey<\/strong>. (This is a non Cozy series.)<\/p>\n OK, now this is great news for the\u00a0Margaret Maron<\/a><\/strong> fans amongst us. She will be be bringing back Sigrid Harald<\/strong>. Sigrid is a New York City homicide detective, and she hasn’t been around for us to read about since 1995.<\/p>\n Those of you who follow Marcia Muller<\/a><\/strong>‘s San Francisco private eye, Sharon McCone<\/strong>, rest assured that there will be more mysteries in that series. She has just gotten the OK for at least two more.<\/p>\n
