Kathryn O’Sullivan
Colleen McCabe Mysteries.
Fire Chief Colleen McCabe’s domain is
Corolla, North Carolina (on the Outer Banks).
The author paints a beautiful
picture of Corolla including its beaches and its famous wild horses.
Her
sidekicks include sixty-five year old, feisty Myrtle Mae Crepe—a former teacher
who’s very opinionated—and her friend, Sheriff Bill Dorman.
Jennifer Oberth
Ella Westin Mysteries.
Set in Maine in the early 1800s. The
protagonist Ella, is a government agent. She works cases in spite of the help
from her family members.
Her marriage to Joe Westin (also a government agent)
brings her to live in the Westin mansion built by Joe’s pirate dad, Jaspar. Add
in Joe’s thieving sister, Doris, and Ella’s friend, Annie and the cook—every
character comes to life in this cozy series.
The plots are well-planned and
clever, but humor drives the stories along with Ella’s sarcastic wit.
Carlene O’Connor
Irish Village Mysteries.
Set in a small village in County Cork,
Ireland, Siobhan O’Sullivan runs the family pub and takes care of her five
siblings. She should be heading off to college, but the death of their parents
nixed that plan.
The author paints a picturesque Irish village with all the
quirks and secrets of a small community. Love all the details and the
characters.
