Retirement can be a lot more difficult than you expected.

Especially if you can't stop finding dead bodies.

This is the problem that Meg Spencer, recently retired homicide detective, faces when she moves to a new town and tries to enjoy herself for once in her life. Will she be able to find some peace and quiet, with zero criminal activity?

Find out here because, all together in one place, are the first three stories of Meg Spencer's retired life: Mile High Murder, Victim in Victoria and Body in the Bay.

Welcome to this series of cozy mysteries by Pamela Kenney featuring a recently retired homicide detective from Toronto, trying to find a quiet, peaceful life in Victoria. Unfortunately, everywhere she goes, she finds murder and mayhem.

Her old co-workers warned her this would happen but she refuses to become the next Miss Marple.

Even if it kills her.

If Miss Marple and the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel were one person, she'd be Meg Spencer, running around Vancouver Island trying to find a peaceful retirement but only getting into trouble instead. Each one of Meg's adventures is a self-contained mystery short, perfect for the busy person: to make time fly when waiting in line or to savour with morning coffee.

Pamela Kenney writes a lot of mysteries, from noir to cozies, but they always have a touch of humour. Even her non–fiction is humorous, like an essay that was published in the Globe and Mail. Find out about upcoming sales on twitter @pkenneywriter.
