A Murderous Mood Swing
(2025)(The second book in the Hot Flashes, Cold Cases Mystery series)
A novel by Lucy Lemon
This cold case won’t be easy to solve—not with a decade-long missing nanny, a coy socialite, and Detective Betsy Parks’ hormones staging a full-blown mutiny.
When Betsy reopens the ten-year-old disappearance of Lydia Frost—maid to Whitfield’s most elegant widow, Emma Black—she uncovers more than dust in the basement. Everyone in town swears Emma’s guilty, but without a body, there’s no crime to prove.
Between gossip, gaslighting, and garden parties gone wrong, Betsy must juggle hot flashes, hostile colleagues, and one very polished suspect who’s made deception an art form.
Armed with chocolate, sarcasm, and a bottle of hormones that may or may not be working, Betsy'''s about to learn that mood swings aren’t just annoying—they can be downright murderous.
Warm, witty, and wickedly clever, A Murderous Mood Swingproves that menopause is murder on secrets.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
