Below is the cover reveal for the next book in the Mimi Goldman Chautauqua Mysteries, coming July 2022 and now up for preorder.

Book Synopsis
When a local online message-board post says, “A Murder is Announced,” all are welcome, on July 18, 2021, at 9:15 p.m. at Merrill Manor, Chautauqua is abuzz.
Many show up expecting a harmless murder-mystery game.
But then the lights go out. An intruder yells, “Stick ’em up.” Three shots are fired. And, by the door, lies . . . the body of the intruder, in costume.
Was it a botched robbery? Or something else?
In this page-turning riff on an Agatha Christie classic, the police, of course, are no help. So reporter and relentless snoop Mimi Goldman (aka Chautauqua’s Miss Marple) and her fearless 95-year-old sidekick Sylvia tackle their ninth and trickiest whodunit yet.
