"The Three-Story Murders"

Book #2 in the Dingle Point Cove Mystery Series


"The Three-Story Murders" is clever, engaging, and an

 inherently fascinating read from cover to cover.

                                             ---Midwest Book Review


  There’s tension in Dingle Point Cove as the well-being of its oldest citizens is under threat. A big healthcare company wants to close all the local senior homes and uproot the residents into a new three-story mega-facility. And they’ll stop at nothing to sell the idea to the community.


But 74-year-old Paige Bottomley isn’t buying it, especially when what she digs up smells as fishy as the town’s beach at low tide. Someone clearly has a lot to lose if the truth comes out, and smart, gutsy Paige is in the way. With greed, treachery and murder, the bodies begin to multiply. And the next digging Paige does just might be her own grave.

"Murder at Buttercup Acres"

EMT’s in Dingle Point Cove are used to calls from nursing homes. But an SOS from Buttercup Acres Assisted Living about a dead stranger in a resident’s room is a first. And Paige Bottomley, the gutsy widow who stumbles over the body is thrust into the mayhem of deceit, fraud, kidnapping and murder. 


On the rebound from a romantic tangle with a clever swindler, Paige has moved to Buttercup Acres to lick her wounds in peace. But something nasty lurking inside and outside the walls has turned tranquility into terror. Now the play is rushing toward a disastrous climax, and somebody wants Paige’s corpse to be the star of the final act.
