The Honeymoon Homicides by Jeannette de Beauvoir is the 10th book in the Provincetown mystery series featuring Sydney Riley, part owner of a Provincetown hotel.

Many guests run screaming from the scene, but not Sydney, who is also known as Provincetown’s own Miss Marple.
Judy Penz Sheluk doesn’t just write crime novels and stories, she publishes them. After her own ups and downs with publishers, she launched Superior Shores Press, which has just released its fourth anthology, Larceny & Last Chances. Like its predecessors, the tome collects 22 stories by some of the genre’s most engaging writers––and me, some old ad guy from Detroit nobody’s ever heard of! I had a chance to catch up with Judy between her finalizing and promoting Larceny & Last Chances, and here’s what she had to say.

Over the last several years I have become a big fan of the work of Anthony Horowitz, both in books and on screen. But I think my favorite thing of his is the Hawthorne and Horowitz mystery series, in which Anthony acts as the Watson to Hawthorne’s Holmes. The fifth book in that series, Close to Death, came out in April and I couldn’t wait to read it!

For our local readers, I am so excited to share that I will be doing two book events with fellow mystery author Jennifer J. Chow this month! Jennifer has a wonderful new series set in the area and I have my Tower District Mystery series.
