Ditched for Murder: A laugh out loud, cozy mystery with plenty of small town charm

A wedding, a murder, and a retirement community full of suspects... what could possibly go wrong?

Sophie “Phee” Kimball thought moving to Arizona to work for a private investigator would bring some peace and quiet. Instead, she's wrangling her seventy-four-year-old Aunt Ina’s over-the-top wedding and her mother Harriet’s nonstop meddling.

But when a celebrity chef turns up dead on the golf course outside Harriet’s front door, things really start to heat up. With her mother in a tizzy and Aunt Ina refusing to let a murder ruin her big day, Phee juggles floral arrangements and forensics while trying to catch a killer before the big "I do."

Hilarious, twisty, and packed with quirky characters, this cozy mystery is a delightful romp where the only thing sharper than the clues is the one-liners.

J.C. Eaton is the wife and husband team of Ann I. Goldfarb and James E. Clapp.
