Nancy Pickard recommends
Pignon Scorbion & the Barbershop Detectives (2022)
(Pignon Scorbion, book 1)
Rick Bleiweiss
"It's adorable. I frequently laughed out loud while also envying Rick's impeccable plotting. Hats off to him and his merry band of solvers. A superbly structured detective story in its own right, Pignon Scorbion & the Barbershop Detectives is also a respectful, affectionate, and frequently very funny tribute to classic British detective fiction. It just might become a classic, itself."
The Widows (2019)
(Kinship, book 1)
Jess Montgomery
"The Widows is powerful reminder that there have always been strong women; they just haven't made it into the history books. This terrific novel corrects that omission by spinning a compelling tale of courageous women in a place and time rarely portrayed in fiction. Jess Montgomery is a top-notch storyteller."
Trimmed With Murder (2015)
(Seaside Knitters Mystery, book 10)
Sally Goldenbaum
"The Seaside Knitters are a wonderful group of friends who care about each other, and readers will care about them too."
