Mystery Cozy | Mystery Woman Sleuth
No one in Bradley, North Carolina, is exactly crying into
their sweet tea over the murder of Parke Stockard.
Certainly not retired schoolteacher Myrtle Clover. Upon
discovering the corpse, Myrtle is struck—not with grief,
but a brilliant idea! Solving the murder would prove to
everyone—especially her son Red, the police chief—that
this eighty-something-year-old is still as sharp as a
tack. Heck, going from crosswords to crime investigations
isn't such a stretch. The old biddies of Bradley can waste
away in blissful stagnation, but Myrtle's not ready to be
put out to pasture just yet. The victim, a pretty but
pushy town developer, had deep pockets and few friends.
Myrtle can't throw one of her gaudy garden gnomes without
hitting a potential suspect. Even when another murder
takes place, proud Myrtle forges on—armed only with a
heavy cane, a venomous tongue, and a widower sidekick.
Like her characters, Elizabeth Spann Craig's (Matthews,
North Carolina) roots are in a small, Southern town. She
grew up in Anderson, South Carolina.
