Forty, foxy, and fond of forensics.
Moving back to my old stopping grounds came with more trouble than I bargained for. I left my investigation agency back in Fort Worth, to start over free from stress.
Two weeks into my retired life, I found myself in a 55+ community-HELLO! Only 43, thank you-and bored out of my mind. I was not cut out for early retirement. So, I did what any attractive single lady would do-jump as far out of my comfort zone as possible. My mama laughed me out of the kitchen when I told her about my new job as a baker's assistant, but that was nothing compared to her reaction when I dropped the bomb about the new murder case I was working. Served up in right in my backyard of all places. At least it was as far away from the adultery I used to solve. While I had my doubts about taking on the case, the country Sheriff put his full faith in me. Not to mention the deputy that came along with the job-boy was he going to be trouble with a capital T. Here's to hoping my keen eye can solve the case before my nerves get the best of me. Murder in LBJ Cove is the first book in Firedrake Investigations, a midlife P.I. cozy mystery series set in the heart of Texas. Each novel is a clean, snarky mystery, centered around murder, with a sprinkle of romance. This series is a tie-in to our Hill Country Mysteries series, where you'll discover Kyrah's secret: A Fresh Brew (Book 1).
