About this series
A half-baked crime...
Zee loves the holidays. But it hardly feels like Christmas in the small town of Ashwood with no snow on the ground.
Good thing she has some freshly-made maple donuts to look forward to—at least until things take a turn for the worse, along with the weather.
With more than her own freedom on the line, can Zee play sleuthing Santa and save the day with her usual ally Detective Sharp out of town?
Enjoy a holiday-themed adventure with Zee (only her mother calls her 'Mackenzie') in this stand-alone short novel from the Mackenzie Quinn Canadian cozy mystery series by the author of the Kira Brightwell mysteries, Jacquelyn Smith.
(A mystery adventure more than a typical whodunit, this story takes place before the first novel in the Mackenzie Quinn series, The Author of His Demise.)

A fictional murder turns deadly... Zee writes mysteries under a secret pen name. No one knows—except her best friend, Tara. (Aside from her two cats, that is.) But the small town of Ashwood, Ontario has become home to more than one murderer in the months since Zee's unplanned return. And while Zee has used the colourful characters of her childhood hometown as inspiration for her writing over the years, it seems a killer has become inspired by her books in turn... Can she track down a murderer without exposing her secret? Find out in this first full-length novel from the Mackenzie Quinn Canadian cozy mystery series by the author of the Kira Brightwell mysteries, Jacquelyn Smith. If you enjoy a fun mystery with a quirky heroine, grab this book.
- Death Clause: A Mackenzie Quinn Short Mystery: Mackenzie Quinn Mysteries
An unplanned homecoming turns to homicide... Zee never expected to move back to her hometown to live with her parents. (And definitely not at the age of forty.) Then again, she never expected to stumble across a dead body either. She thought when she left Toronto for the quiet, small-town life, she had left her problems behind. But both cats and a killer have other plans... Meet Zee Quinn (only her mother calls her 'Mackenzie')—prodigal daughter of Ashwood, Ontario, and amateur sleuth with a secret—in this introductory short novel from the Mackenzie Quinn cozy mystery series by the author of the Kira Brightwell mysteries, Jacquelyn Smith.

Jacquelyn Smith
Jacquelyn Smith writes both epic and intrigue-based fantasy, and mysteries that range from cozy to kick-ass, with independent, strong-willed heroes, in search of their place in the world. These heroes take the problems they face seriously (but never themselves), and are supported by unlikely friendships they forge along the way. Jacquelyn is the author of the World of Lasniniar epic fantasy series, the Fatal Empire fantasy intrigue series, the kick-ass Kira Brightwell mysteries, and the Mackenzie Quinn Canadian cozy mysteries. (She originally published several of the early Kira Brightwell titles under the pen name Kat Irwin, before killing Kat off to eliminate the many awkward questions about having a second identity.) When spending time in the real world, Jacquelyn lives on the suburban outskirts of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, with her husband, Mark, and their feline owner, Xena, who is definitely a warrior princess.
