About this series
Maggie Pill's characters seem like people you know: In The Sleuth Sisters Series, it's siblings we love but can't always relate to. In the Trailer Park Tales Series, we meet the residents of an RV park in Florida: fussy husbands, smart-aleck wives, grumpy neighbors, conspiracy lovers, and more. The residents of B-Bird Over-55 RV Park are mostly snow-birds, so for months each year they face the joys and irritations of living in tight spaces with people from all over the place. Usually they cope with good humor, but at times it's difficult.
In ONCE UPON A TRAILER PARK, a murder on the property put residents on alert and one woman in deadly danger. In this, the second story of the series, our heroes are presented with two crime threads, one hot and one cold. The cold case is half a century old, which is okay, since many residents remember those days like they were yesterday.
In 1967, on a warm night in Nashville, Tennessee, someone committed two brutal murders. It's reported that person now lives in the park, hiding under a false identity. When local police ask Ron and Julie Rogers to try to find out who it is, they enlist the help of their friends to learn where each man in the park was on the date the crime occurred.
The other crime is ongoing, and more of an annoyance than a concern. Rumor says someone is peeping in residents' windows, but it must be admitted that in any large community, rumor is often wrong.
Ignoring the peeper sightings, the sleuths concentrate on finding the eighty-year-old killer. Neck-deep in suspects, they have no idea how dangerous things will become for one of them.

- Once Upon a Trailer Park: Trailer Park Tales, #1
1
New Series! Suspenseful, hilarious, and focused on "mature" spouses with loving but sometimes contentious relationships. Once Upon a Trailer Park begins with a murder on the streets of the Beautiful Bird RV Park in Palm Hill, Florida. As residents learn bits and pieces about the crime (some true, some less so), they form and reform theories of the killer's identity. It's the park weirdo. It's the ex-wife. It's the victim's employer. Residents want to find out the truth, some due to friendship, some from fear, some to protect themselves. It soon becomes clear that asking too many questions leads to danger. In fact, it could spell disaster.
- Third Crime's the Charm: Trailer Park Tales, #3
3
The sleuths at the Beautiful Bird Over-55 RV Park in Florida are back for a third unofficial investigation. Their friend Detective O'Connor seems to have gone off somewhere, but they suspect he could be in trouble. People find themselves on dating sites they never signed up for. And even though the two men hauling away the contents of a former resident's trailer are authorized to so do, they seem off somehow. While three possible crimes create suspense, relationships among people add humor and warmth to the story. Husbands and wives, close friends and screwball neighbors: the characters are people we might meet anywhere. Some we love spending time with. Others we avoid when we can. As our intrepid retirees investigate events in the park, they will uncover evil deeds and face mortal danger. But really, shouldn't they be getting used to that by now?
