It's been eight years since gardening columnist Jillian Bradley helped solve a string of murders in Half Moon Bay. But when a colleague in Scottsdale, Arizona finds a young technical assistant dead on the floor of his private office, Jillian doesn't hesitate to answer his plea for help in the investigation. After all, a $2 million research grant depends on it.
Together with Detective Jack Noble and Jillian's clue sniffing dog, Teddy, the three set out to track the killer who left a porcelain orchid over the wound as the only clue. Even though it means personal sacrifice for Jillian, she is determined to uncover the truth. A faith-based novel.  







Christmas - the busiest time of the year! And on top of everything, Jillian is throwing an engagement party for two dear friends. But on a final errand before the party begins, Jillian witnesses a horrific car crash. She and her faithful Yorkie Teddy pull a survivor from the wreckage, and together attempt to solve the mystery of the amnesia victim, a 17-year-old boy she and Teddy take under their wing. 
  When Jillian stumbles across a mysterious compound, she is determined to unlock old family secrets to solve the mystery of the boy's identity, even though taking the risk creates the ultimate test for her and Teddy's survival. 




After a frantic call from a couple on their honeymoon, Jillian Bradley returns to Half Moon Bay to help. Two elderly men have been found dead in their recliners under suspicious circumstances. Now another man is missing—the distraught father of the new bride Cecilia Montoya, Jillian's personal assistant. Under Jillian's lead, their investigation must be incognito since Cecilia's husband Detective Walter Montoya can’t officially work on the case due to conflict of interest. Clues lead Jillian and her faithful Yorkie Teddy to take a cruise to Catalina Island, but it's only an entree into a strange clinical world where she almost becomes a victim herself before identifying who is responsible for a bizarre series of deaths. Will Teddy be in time to save the day?

    1. Thanks for your lovely comment. The series culminates with Book 11-Museums Can Be Murder. I tried to give Jillian a happily ever after ending.

  2. Please write another Cozy Mystery series! I just loved your Jillian Bradley Mystery series! I like how your books have good morals with a strong woman character. We need many more authors like you to keep the power of prayer throughout the pages and the great story lines too.

    1. Thank you for your nice comment and suggestion I write another series. I enjoyed writing after my children left home. At this time of my life any spare time I have belongs to focusing on my grandchildren. I guess you could say it’s a wonderful excuse to see the world through their eyes.
