Welcome to Normal, Kentucky… where every street has a story—and every story has a secret.

From USA TODAY bestselling author Tonya Kappes comes a brand new chapter in a beloved small-town world—where front porches stretch wide, sweet tea flows freely, and trouble has a way of finding even the quietest corners.

The Boone’s Book Nook Bookstore Mysteries invite readers into the heart of downtown Normal, a ‘living, breathing postcard’ tucked inside the Daniel Boone National Forest. Here, charming cottage-style shops line Main Street, twinkle lights glow long after sunset, and the town’s infamous Laundry Club Ladies seem to know everything before anyone else does.

At the center of it all is Sadie Whitfield, a former New York publishing insider who trades city life for small-town charm, only to discover that Normal is anything but… well, normal.

As Sadie builds a new life, and eventually a bookstore of her own, she finds herself drawn into mysteries rooted in the town’s past, its people, and the secrets they’d rather keep buried. With each case, she uncovers more than clues… she uncovers what it truly means to belong.

This series marks the beginning of the Welcome to Normal Universe—an expansive, interconnected world where beloved characters cross paths, stories unfold across different corners of town, and readers are invited to return again and again to experience life, love, friendship… and the occasional well-timed murder.

Whether you’re a longtime fan of the Camper & Criminals Cozy Mystery Series or stepping into Normal for the very first time, there’s always a place waiting for you here.

Pull up a chair.

Stay awhile.

Just don’t be surprised if you get pulled into a mystery before you leave.
