About this series
There are blondes — and then there are high maintenance blondes. And Eve Dahlgren was a high maintenance blonde, even forty years ago in high school.
When Eve ends up dead, and Journal-Gazette publisher Earlene Whitelaw is arrested for her murder, it looks like an open and shut case. It's up to editor Addison McIntyre to prove her boss didn't kill her.
But Eve's got secrets—and so does the newest Journal-Gazette reporter, Charisma Lemarnier. Will Charisma's past stand in her way as she investigates two cold case murders? Or will someone else break through her defenses to help her find peace—and love?
This is the fifth in Debra Gaskill's Jubilant Falls series.

- Barn Burner: Jubilant Falls Series, #1
1
Barns are burning on farms all around Jubilant Falls, Ohio —but that's the least of newspaper editor Addison McIntyre's problems. The daughter of Golgotha College president Dr. Seaford Thorn has come up missing — along with $500,000 from the college's endowment fund. When Addison's own daughter Isabella, already suspended from school for assaulting a teacher, attempts suicide , Addison must come to terms with the real meaning of family secrets— her own and others. Barnburner tackles the legacy of mental illness in a small town, the secrets everyone keeps—and the damages that all of those secrets can do. "Debra Gaskill's small town Jubilant Falls reads as true as Faulkner's Jefferson, Mississippi. From the first page, Addison makes the reader long for her next crime to solve or mystery to unravel." —Douglas Savage, author of the novels The Court Martial of Robert E. Lee (History Book Club main selection)
- The Major's Wife: Jubilant Falls Series, #2
2
When Marcus Henning came to the Jubilant Falls Journal-Gazette in 1982, he was looking for the one story that would change his career, give him credibility after screwing up a story in another town. Instead, he fell in love —and lost— the fiery redhead Kay James when she married an Air Force fighter pilot named Paul Armstrong. Seven years later, Kay was back — without the Major— and Marcus is on the trail of the one big story that would redeem his career. But what he uncovers could destroy everything he holds dear— his job, his career… and Kay.
- Lethal Little Lies: Jubilant Falls Series, #3
3
Times are tough in the newspaper business these days. In between staff cuts, furloughs and declining advertising dollars, Jubilant Falls Journal-Gazette editor Addison McIntyre hasn’t got time to listen when candidate Rick Starrett claims his opponent Virginia Ferguson ran a dirty state senate campaign. Short on staff, time and patience, she can’t waste time on sore losers—then Virginia Ferguson is shot. As she dies, names Rick Starrett as the man who pulled the trigger. That gets Addison’s attention. To further complicate things, Kay Henning, the wife of reporter Marcus Henning, has come up missing and believed to be in danger. Did she leave of her own accord or was she kidnapped? What ties these two events together? Who’s telling the truth? And who is telling what could be lethal little lies? This is the third in Debra Gaskill’s Jubilant Falls series
- Murder on the Lunatic Fringe: Jubilant Falls Series, #4
4
The news is as slow as the lazy, final days of summer in Jubilant Falls when editor Addison McIntyre drives out to the Lunatic Fringe farm, to interview Russian-born Ekaterina Bolodenka for a story on her award-winning weaving and the llamas and alpacas she raises there. But there's something about farm manager Jerome Johnson that Addison doesn't trust, particularly when she—or the police—can't verify anything about either's past. Meanwhile, crime reporter Graham Kinnon is on the trail of white supremacists that may be moving into the county. One in particular may have answers to Graham's fractured past—or his future. When animals are mutilated and Jerome is murdered, the quest is on to solve the murder on the Lunatic Fringe. This is the fourth in Debra Gaskill's Jubilant Falls series.
