New Title Announcement – LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and MURDER

New Title Announcement - LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and MURDER

We’re very excited to announce the second book in the Larkin Day Mystery Series, Like, Subscribe, and Murder!

Join Larkin, Ed, and Anni as they solve a social-media murder!

Larkin Day is doing great. She’s gainfully employed, she has a kinda-sorta boyfriend, and she let her best friend Anni convince her to sign up for group exercise classes at the Pratincola Fitness Complex. New year, new Larkin, right?

She’s also looking for a new case—even though Anni keeps telling Larkin that she has to figure out how to solve something else besides murder. Otherwise, a lot of people in Pratincola, Iowa will have to die before Larkin can turn her detective business into a full-time job.

So Larkin decides to solve everything. Why are a group of college students trying to get Larkin’s mother to resign as Dean? Who is the mysterious stranger who keeps hanging around Anni’s apartment building? When is the right time to ask someone whether he’s really your boyfriend?

Then Bonnie Cooper, a fitness instructor and social-media influencer who just landed her first major sponsorship, asks Larkin for help.

“I’ve been murdered,” Bonnie says—even though she is very much alive.

Like, Subscribe, and Murder will be released on January 17, 2023. It is the second entry in the Larkin Day Mystery Series.

Like, Subscribe, and Murder follows the first Larkin Day Mystery, Ode to Murder, which was praised as “refreshing… a new story that can reach [readers] in surprising, unexpected ways” (IndieReader) and is out everywhere tomorrow!
