Mission: Murder book coverWe’re excited and proud to introduce America’s latest unlikely sleuth to readers of the “cozy” mystery genre. Veteran writer Betty Kerr Orlemann launches her author career with Mission: Murder, the first title in our new Hattie Farwell mystery series. Hattie, the series heroine, is an octogenarian, an animal lover, and about to start a second career as a solver of mysterious murders with the strange death of Annie Turner, her best friend since childhood. With the help of her huge dog, Wolf, and Annie’s granddaughters, Hattie negotiates a path through the sleazy underbelly of American politics and the uneasy family dynamic left behind by Annie to honor her lost friend by helping to find out why she died in the first place. Join Hattie in the bucolic beauty of her beloved Bucks County home for the beginning of something exciting!
