I am a huge fan of Keri Arthur’s writing—her books always make my favorite books of the year list! When she started a new series called the Relic Hunters in 2022, I was excited to see what new things she had in store and I wasn’t disappointed. The first book was called Crown of Shadows. Sword of Darkness is the second book in the series. The series features a pixie named Bethany Aodhán.

As an author who juggles four different mystery series—all cozy in nature—it's great spending quality time with my characters during "release week." What do I mean by quality time? Well, for me, release weeks require hyper-focus on a specific world and cast of characters. During my usual writing weeks, I'm bouncing around from town to town, character to character, working on whatever project speaks to me the most…or has the closest looming deadline.
Auntie Eudora Black was a tea connoisseur having traveled the world sampling blends from the every day to the exotic. After one such adventure, she returned to Raven Creek, Washington, and found her favorite used bookshop was closing. She jumped at the chance to rescue it, and after turning the large supply closet into a tearoom, The Earl’s Study opened.
