Home Fires Burn by Anthony Bidulka

The much anticipated follow-up to ‘From Sweetgrass Bridge.’

From the author of Crime Writers of Canada Best Crime Novel, ‘Going to Beautiful’, comes the final book of the Merry Bell trilogy. When a celebrated philanthropist is found slumped against his car, frozen to death, PI Merry Bell is hired by his son, country music star Evan Whatley, to find out the truth behind what really happened on that desolate stretch of road. As Merry’s investigation uncovers old wounds that never healed, her own are revealed as she confronts her pre-transition past and questions the boundaries of family and friendship.

Order A Dark Death by Alice Fitzpatrick

Order the much anticipated follow-up to ‘Secrets in the Water.’

Kate Galway is looking forward to a quiet summer working on her latest novel at her home on Meredith Island.  For a place hardly anyone has heard of, her sleepy Welsh island is attracting a lot of visitors, including a conman posing as a psychic and group of archaeology students who believe they’ve unearthed evidence of a Roman temple.  Part-way through the dig, however, the students make an even more startling discovery: a body ritualistically laid out in their trench.  While intrigued by the murder, amateur sleuth Kate decides to leave this investigation to the professionals.  However, when she learns that both the island mechanic and her university friend’s son are prime suspects, she and hedonistic artist Siobhan Fitzgerald feel they have no choice but to get involved.
