The Full Hayrides and Homicides Mystery Series Collection
(2025)(A book in the Hayrides and Homicides series)
An omnibus of novels by Maisy Marple
Welcome to autumn in small-town America, where the leaves are falling, the apple cider is flowing, and murder is always just around the corner. The Hayrides and Homicides series brings together six cozy mysteries set in charming towns across the country, each featuring a different amateur sleuth who discovers that running a local shop means more than just serving customers—it means solving crimes. From tea shops to bookstores, fabric stores to candle shops, these observant women find themselves drawn into investigations when wealthy victims with long lists of enemies turn up dead during their towns' beloved October festivals.
Each book delivers a satisfying puzzle where motives run deep and alibis run thin, as our sleuths navigate webs of financial desperation, family betrayal, and carefully guarded secrets. With loyal animal companions by their sides and an eye for details that law enforcement overlooks, these amateur detectives prove that sometimes the best investigators are the ones who've spent years listening to small-town gossip and watching human nature unfold from behind their counters. Whether it's piecing together clues over quilting circles or noticing contradictions while serving coffee, these women understand that in close-knit communities, everyone knows everyone—which means a killer can hide in plain sight.
Perfect for fans of classic cozy mysteries who love autumn atmospheres, witty dialogue, and clever sleuths who solve crimes without ever leaving their hometowns, this complete collection delivers six standalone stories that capture the charm of small-town life and the timeless appeal of a well-crafted whodunit. Pour yourself a cup of tea, settle in with your favorite blanket, and discover why sometimes the quietest observers see the most dangerous truths.
