A Fair Chance Of Murder

Golden Glen’s annual Summerfest is meant to be a celebration of sunshine, laughter, and small-town tradition. Instead, it ends in murder.

When the Spencer & Spencer Carnival rolls into town, old grudges and dangerous secrets arrive with it. The festivities come to a shocking halt when one of the carnival’s most despised members is found dead—and Maiden Harlow’s father becomes the prime suspect.

Determined to clear his name, Maiden dives into the carnival’s hidden world of rivalries, betrayals, and long-buried resentments. Her extraordinary memory helps her uncover the details others overlook, but every clue draws her closer to a killer determined to keep the truth buried.

Captain David McAlister wants Maiden to leave the investigation to the professionals. Yet despite his reservations, he can’t ignore her remarkable ability to uncover the connections everyone else misses.

Together, they must expose the truth before another life is claimed.

A Fair Chance of Murder is the second novel in the Maiden Harlow Mysteries, a dark cozy mystery series filled with small-town secrets, clever clues, unforgettable characters, slow-burn romance, and twist-filled mysteries.

Return to Golden Glen, where every celebration has its secrets—and some are worth killing to protect.
