The latest case has Meg's past coming back to haunt her.

This time it's personal and, if she's not careful, the next dead body might be hers!

Meg Spencer is used to dealing with dead bodies.

After three decades on the Toronto homicide squad, she's solved thousands of cases in her time. And in the very short time since she's retired, she's solved even more. Three, so far, and counting.

But she never expected that she'd have to fight for her own life, especially AFTER she retired.

Welcome to a new 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 she wrote that was published in the Globe and Mail.
