THE HUMPBACK ROCKS MURDER

AVAILABLE NOW

Nine Hikers Climbed Humpback Rocks. Only Eight Came Down.

Retired detective Bill O'Shea is pulled into an awkward situation when his girlfriend’s ex-husband comes to Wintergreen for a family reunion. Does Bill’s girlfriend have lingering feelings for her ex? It’s hard to tell.

Mystery clouds the reunion because seven years earlier, one of the family cousins–an heiress to a fortune–disappeared on a hike in Wintergreen. With the missing cousin now legally declared dead, each surviving cousin will inherit fifty million dollars.

The reunion activities include a competitive climb to the peak of Humpback Rocks. Everyone makes it to the top, but they later realize a second cousin has disappeared.

A massive search begins, led by a park ranger who asks for Bill’s help with the investigation. Join Bill as he tries to solve two missing person cases that are tragically intertwined.

The Humpback Rocks Murder is the fifth book in the Wintergreen Mystery Series and can be read on a standalone basis.

Series fans will enjoy the return of your favorite characters including Bill O’Shea, Cindy Quintrell, Officer Krista Jackson, Officer Mitch Gentry, Rachel Dunn, the groundhog Mr. Chips, the black bear Ms. Betsy, and a black Lab named Max.

"I kept changing my mind on who I thought was guilty and when the reveal finally came, I was happy with the choice of killer, but also somewhat surprised." - Goodreads review
