Synopsis
Regular visitors to this space know that I don't spend much time on the subgenre called 'cozies'--soft-edged mysteries usually set in small towns, featuring amateur sleuths who solve crimes while leading otherwise productive lives. But when writers as sharp as Margaret Maron, Earlene Fowler and Jerrilyn Farmer all rave about a colleague as convincingly as they have about Denise Swanson, even the gruffest noir addict has to take notice.
