About this ebook

A Charlene Parker Cozy Mystery Series Box Set

Owning and operating a cottage resort in a peaceful northern Ontario setting should be a piece of cake for a former police detective. Families should be happy to be on a vacation in rustic log cabins set among acres of old-growth pines along a vast shoreline of a clean lake ideal for swimming, boating and fishing.

It should and they should, is what goes through the mind of the former detective turned resort owner every time a guest shows up and havoc reigns. It's enough to make Charlene want to head south, back to a dark alley in the north end of Hamilton to chase a criminal in a hoodie, always a hoodie. But instead, the former detective turned resort owner stays put and cleans toilets, cuts wood, sells gas, worms and ice, rents fishing boats and canoes and cottages, smiles at guests, and helps the local O.P.P. solve murders on the resort, because every time guests show up, someone gets killed.

The six book collection follows Charlene Parker as she navigates her life of solving murders, romance, friends, food and running a cottage resort in Ontario while trying to further her future goal of moving to the old family home in Nova Scotia. This box set contains the complete series.
