Welcome back to Hope Falls, home of the world's smallest but smartest detective. We've missed you so we kept a seat by the fire... Poetry is written in tears, fiction in sweat and literature in blood. —Tara Lee (Lecture to the Lit Wits from Moving Violation) Chloe Boston, meter maid and unofficial sleuth of the Hope Falls Police Department, is on the trail of the Halloween Killer and a second troublesome criminal, the Pumpkin Thief, who has robbed every pumpkin patch in town. Aided by her dog, Blue, and new boyfriend, Alex, Chloe is closing in on Hope Falls public enemies 1 and 2. "I fell in love with Chloe Boston; she's an enormous spirit in a tiny package, and endearingly human. Go Chloe!" —Lisa Cach, author of "Wake Unto Me" The Chloe Boston cozy mysteries are light reads filled with plenty of quirky characters and fast moving plots. And the best part is that if you become hooked on the books, as I'm sure you will, there are 22 more of them in the series for you to enjoy. Looking for other mysteries by Melanie Jackson? Simply search for "Butterscotch Jones", "Wendover House", "Miss Henry", "Kenneth Mayhew" or "Jane Blackthorn".
