Greed Indeed

A Jolene Mackenzie Mystery Series Book 1

While making a delivery, Beavers Point bakery owner Jolene Mackenzie discovers her first dead body. Could it be connected to the recent rash of robberies in the area? Jolene's curiosity gets the better of her as she starts her own investigation with the help of her new friend Kaelyn, a local reporter. In no time at all, she finds that her life goes from fair to middlin' to seriously in danger. With the chief of police giving her a difficult time every step of the way, will Jolene be able to solve the mystery? Will she be able to save one of her neighbors from being falsely accused? What was she thinking anyway? Having only moved to town a few weeks ago, she's dealing with enough. Her new business is barely off the ground, her childhood friend Zoe wants her to stop snooping, a woman named Amy has her knickers in a knot over Jolene's interest in the local cafe owner, and the most exasperating town gossip lives right across the street. Jolene quickly realizes that people aren't always what they seem and her sleuthing could become deadly. Someone out there wants her to mind her own business. Will she be the next one to die? Or will an unexpected hero help save the day? This is a cozy mystery with a female amateur sleuth in a small town setting. It contains no strong profanity, sex, gore, or graphic scenes of violence.
