The Empty-nesters Cozy Mystery series

A clean, humorous cozy mystery series featuring a sharp-witted amateur sleuth, small-town secrets, and birding adventures gone wrong.

When widow Peg Howard starts a birding group in Pensacola to cope with empty-nest syndrome, she doesn’t expect to find herself solving murders.
