Fiona Quinn Cozy Mysteries

A Wave of Great Reviews!

  • Waves of Murder4:59


School’s out for the summer!
Kindergarten teacher, Fiona Quinn is looking forward to spending some quality time in her yard and with her boyfriend, Detective Nathan Landry. However, Fiona’s plans get squelched when her mother volunteers her to edit a manuscript for famous romance author, Wyla Parkes.
What’s so bad about that? The author insists Fiona must work on the manuscript at her beach cottage on Presque Isle--three hours away from her yard and Nathan. Spending six weeks in an adorable cottage on a private beach doesn’t really seem all that bad until people start turning up dead—beginning with the author!

Fiona’s summer of sun and sand is instantly transformed into a murder investigation. Can Fiona and Nathan crack the case or will the murderer getaway on a wave of deceit?  

Join Fiona and the gang for a hot whodunit on the sandy beaches of Presque Isle, Pennsylvania!



“I really enjoy this series. It is entertaining and hilarious, but also full of mystery and suspense. I also love the touch of the ghost in the story. I highly recommend this series!”~ Girl with Pen Book Blog

 “I love the characters and how they grow within each of the books. Fiona Quinn is quite a force -- tenacious, warm and someone most can identify with. Can’t wait for the next adventure!” ~Sherry Wilson/Amazon customer

Audio Books are a Hit Too!


“I’ve listened to this book twice already! This is an entertaining, comfort read. I think Fiona is adorable. She is a self-doubting chatterbox who sometimes doesn't know when to shut up. I found myself laughing out loud in places. The narrator, Maren Swenson Waxenberg does an incredible job. She definitely has a gift for voices and gets Fiona just right as well as all the other characters!”~ K.J. Kirk/Audible Customer
