The Cookie Cutter Legacy (Jerria Danson Mysteries Series Book 3)

About The Cookie Cutter Legacy (Jerria Danson Mysteries Series Book 3)

In this warm Christian historical fiction, Henrietta, a tough 95+-year old North Dakota cattle rancher, weakened from a bout of pneumonia, comes to live with her great-niece in rural Oregon, bringing the family treasure with her. From the time of Queen Elizabeth I, each generation of the Van Demere family has added a cookie cutter to the collection, marking milestones, passing down their oral history. Each cookie cutter’s vignette tells a story of American history, including WWII spies and the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and Underground Railroad, indentured servitude, pioneers crossing the plains and the gold rush, barnstormers and orphan trains, safari and the Titanic, testaments of faith and strong women through the generations. Henrietta feels a bounden duty to pass the stories to Jerria. Will she complete the family heritage before it’s too late? And can her home-nursing skills prevent a family crisis? If you love warm, clean, multi generational stories with a strong female character and loads of humor, you’ll love The Cookie Cutter Legacy by Deb Graham.
Be sure to look for Peril in Paradise and Murder on Deck, part of the Jerria Danson series.

About THE UNKNOWN ASSASSIN: BOOK SIX IN THE “JOE THE MAGIC MAN SERIES”

Frank Brubaker, the Deputy Director of the FBI, had an unusual case land on his desk. Mark Buick had been arrested for two murders that he says he is being framed for by the police. But he is willing to admit to two other killings that he committed, and he will show them where he buried the bodies if they take the death penalty away for the two murders to which he is pleading innocent.
The police don’t know if he is lying or not, and the other two people he is claiming he murdered are on the missing persons list, which could possibly make Mark a serial killer with four murders to his name.
The case intrigued Frank. Was Mark Buick being framed by the police? Did Mark kill the two missing persons, or did he have a partner kill them? And if so, then there is another killer out there.
There were a lot of unanswered questions that Frank thought would be good for his Secret Task Force to investigate, with the help of Joe’s gift of getting into people’s dreams and finding out their secrets.
Can Joe find out if Mark is a crackpot or is he being framed? Did he kill two or four people? And if he had a partner, can Joe find him before he kills again?

About Rapid Rodent Response: A Cozy Animal Mystery (Ruff McPaw Mysteries Book 2)

A squeaky-clean murder, a little furry witness…

For such a small town, Hummings Hollow is rife with danger and intrigue—especially for forty-year-old Angela Atkinson who despite her busy schedule can’t seem to keep her nose out of a good mystery; it doesn’t help that her faithful sidekick Ruff McPaw has an equally good nose for danger.

When a middle school janitor is found dead in a school supply closet, Angela must juggle her hobby farm, barista job, and well-meaning community of friends and family as she seeks out answers. When a classroom pet turns up with what might be the key to solving the whole case, Angela feels that the killer is close at hand—but there’s more to this clue than meets the eye.

From a Parent Teacher Association (PTA) that seems more like a high school clique than anything else to possible motives that feel shaky at best, Angela and Ruff have plenty to investigate before the middle school’s Valentine’s Day dance marks the murderer’s final escape from the swift paw of justice…

Rapid Rodent Response is the second book in the Ruff McPaw Mysteries series. If you adore intriguing cozy mysteries with beautiful small towns and a really adorable dog, then you won’t want to miss out on Angela and Ruff’s fun and unforgettable cases.
