A new life. A fresh start. A murder she didn’t commit.

When Maeve Morgan arrives in the quiet Scottish town of Strathfulton to take possession of her unexpected inheritance, she expects challenges—restoring the crumbling estate, gaining the trust of her wary staff, and settling into the role of Countess. What she doesn’t expect is to become the prime suspect in a murder investigation.

A beloved schoolteacher is found dead under suspicious circumstances, and with Maeve being the newcomer and an outsider, suspicion falls squarely on her. The local police inspector—a bumbling yet stubborn man determined to prove his worth—seems all too eager to pin the crime on the mysterious new countess. But Maeve isn’t one to sit idly by.

With her past experience as a police officer in England, she knows how to follow the clues, ask the right questions, and see beyond small-town gossip. But the more she digs, the more secrets she unearths—secrets that some would kill to keep buried. As whispers swirl around her and the town watches her every move, Maeve must navigate the treacherous waters of high society, small-town politics, and a murderer who may be closer than she thinks.

Can she clear her name and prove her worth to the town before the real killer strikes again? Or will her new beginning end in a most tragic way?

A crumbling estate, a reluctant detective, and murders that turn high society upside down—The Maeve Morgan Cozy Murder Mysteries is a spinoff of the bestselling Lady Darriby-Jones Mystery series that promises intrigue, laughter, and plenty of twists!
