DYING FOR NEWS
Bernadette “Bernie” O’Dea mystery series Book 4!
THE DEAD OF WINTER…
When newspaper owner and editor Bernadette “Bernie” O’Dea’s house burns down on New Year’s Eve with an unidentified body in the charred rubble – who may or may not be her missing tenant – it’s clear the new year won’t be nice and quiet after all.
Bernie is already navigating boyfriend and police chief Pete Novotny’s increasingly challenging struggle with PTSD, so when the arson and murder investigation narrows its focus on her, she plunges into work trying to find an oasis of normalcy. Getting to the bottom of the local college’s plans for expansion is just the ticket.
Or not. What Bernie thought would be a simple story isn’t simple at all, and she begins to uncover a dark conspiracy, with tentacles that reach to every corner of Redimere, including into Pete’s troubled police department. The farther Bernie digs, the more tragic, and ultimately deadly, the consequences.

THE BERNIE O’DEA MYSTERY SERIES
A cold death…
When the snow in a small Maine town starts to melt, the town’s secrets begin to emerge. Bernadette “Bernie” O’Dea, the editor of the Peaks Weekly Watcher, is jazzed to finally have a big story to cover when a body is found in a melting snowbank. But as spring turns into a long, hot, explosive summer in Redimere, Maine, the story gets bigger — maybe too big for Bernie to handle.

Lost on the trail…
When Appalachian Trail thru-hiker Lydia Manzo becomes lost, then is found dead, it sets off a chain of events that upsets the fragile peace of Redimere, Maine. While investigators are sure Lydia killed herself, some in Redimere are just as sure someone killed her, including newspaper editor Bernadette “Bernie” O’Dea and Police Chief Pete Novotny. But then Pete disappears into the woods, too.
Maine’s northwestern High Peaks Region can be a dark wilderness, but the mountains suddenly feel very crowded as Bernie searches for answers during another too-hot summer of deceit and death in Redimere.
