Book One: Body in the Books

Sometimes, owning a bookstore can be murder.

When Nora Jones inherits a dusty old bookshop from her estranged uncle, she moves to St. Augustine to tie up loose ends and maybe learn a bit about the man she never knew.

Only what first appeared to be a heart attack turns out to be murder, and there’s no shortage of suspects. The detective assigned to the case might be handsome and charming, but Nora’s convinced he’s chasing down the wrong lead.

With her newly-inherited Greyhound named Margo and a quirky band of friends in tow, Nora decides to track down the killer herself. She finds herself in a race to solve the murder before she becomes the next body in the books.

Book Two: Trouble in the Treasure

Nora Jones has settled in to her new life in sunny St. Augustine, Florida. She has a group of endearingly quirky friends and an only slightly-neurotic greyhound to keep her on her toes. Business at her bookstore is booming, thanks in part to being home base for the new television show Ghosthunters, Inc.

But when a treasure map is discovered among her uncle’s things, she learns the hard way about the old adage treasure is trouble. Nora is swept into a centuries-old tale of treachery and deceit, with everyone from foreign governments to the mafia wanting a piece of the action.

Nora and her crew are in a race to find the treasure and solve the mysteries surrounding it before it’s lost forever—if only they can manage to not get caught in the crossfire.

Trouble in the Treasure is the second installment in the lighthearted and fun Nora Jones Mysteries series, full of twists and turns, endearing characters, and a dash of romance.

Book Three: Gator in the Gallery

Life couldn’t be better for Nora’s friend Prudence Willoughby. She’s got her dream job in an art gallery, her own artwork is gaining recognition, and she’s got an eclectic group of friends that don’t mind when she goes into hermit-mode.

So, it’s understandable when she wants to pretend that she doesn’t notice the weird things happening at work, like art going missing and her boss acting like nothing happened. But when she shows up to find a live alligator in the gallery, it’s too much to ignore.

Fortunately, she’s got a group of friends that love sticking their noses where they don’t belong, and the crew sets out to help her solve the mystery. It sends them on a journey full of twists and turns, leading through the dark underbelly of the art world.

Can they find out who put the gator in the gallery—and why—before the warning turns into something more dire?

Gator in the Gallery is the third installment in the lighthearted and fun Nora Jones Mysteries, full of endearing characters, intriguing mysteries, and a dash of romance.
