*****5 Stars for The Mysteries of Hummingbird Falls. Suspenseful and exciting, without graphic violence, this cozy mystery keeps you turning the pages. Cozy Mystery Review.
When a local eccentric appears at Ellie Hasting's cottage door whispering that she's seen a body, Ellie, a summer resident of the rural mountain village of Hummingbird Falls, doesn't take her seriously. But when the discovery of a dead woman at the bottom of the magnificent falls points to murder, the tiny town's two-man police force asks Ellie to help with the investigation.
Then she finds a second body.
Some secrets stay buried for generations, especially in isolated tourist towns like this. But something dangerous is rattling the foundations of this scenic village. Ellie has growing suspicions, but isn't sure whom she can trust, especially as pounding rains and flooding create a disaster that's pushing everybody together in emergency shelters...including the killer who's waiting for the right moment to silence Ellie for good.
The award winning best seller of 80,000 words has been revised and reformatted in response to reader feedback.
