It is my pleasure to share with you the cover reveal for the next book in the “Chautauqua” mystery series, coming July 2021.

Book synopsis:
When Al Martin, the editor of a satiric newspaper in Chautauqua, N.Y., reportedly dies of COVID-19, the local consensus is: good riddance.

A sister suspects foul play. She wonders why Al was cremated in a hurry.

But the police butt out.

So it takes reporter and relentless snoop Mimi Goldman to find which of Al’s enemies — including an estranged realtor wife, three bitter siblings, an overworked caregiver, a neighbor with a secret and the many targets of Al’s poison-pen sarcasm — is really a ruthless killer.

The novel, No. 8 in a series called “an Agatha Christie for the text-message age,” once again offers page-turning suspense. Wit. History. And the unforgettable setting of Chautauqua, a quirky, churchy, lakeside, Victorian cottage-filled summer arts community that in 1874 launched an adult-education movement Teddy Roosevelt called “the most American thing in America.”
