Welcome to the official Roxie Maxx bookshop — the home of three distinct cozy mystery series, each set in its own corner of the Whiskey Pines universe. The Pines & Needles Crafting Colony Mysteries follow a lakefront women's crafting community in southwest Michigan where every stitch tells a story and the body count is suspiciously high. The Whiskey Pines Mysteries trace Roxie and her telepathic Bichon Frise Kenzie through Prohibition-era secrets that refuse to stay buried. And Roxanne's World sweeps Roxie back through time at her grandmother's behest — Roxanne having been the queen of the Great Lakes during Prohibition, a title earned the hard way.
The full library is on its way. New titles are released one at a time over the coming months, and existing residents get them free as each one publishes. Books are available to read in your browser or download as an EPUB to your preferred reading device.
Quiet Treachery
A Pines & Needles Crafting Colony Mystery — Book One
Whiskey Pines, Michigan, 1987. Roxie Maxx finally has what she built: a women-only crafting colony on the Lake Michigan shore. Then a deceased member tries to speak to her privately. Pages go missing from the Founders binder. An attorney with a long shadow shows up smiling. And Sunday, the day no one is supposed to be on the property, suddenly is.
