I have really enjoyed writing this crossover from my popular Camper & Criminals Cozy Mystery where Violet Rhinehammer finally got her own series.

She wore me out day and night, even writing my other series. How rude! But she was right. Violet was too big to be a secondary character and I have to say she’s been a lot of fun not only to write, but also watch her grow into her own.

I love writing cozy mysteries set in the holidays and that is how I came up with the idea of making Violet’s series set in a holiday season. Which is how I got the series name: Holiday Cozy Mystery.
I can’t even tell you how many times I have chuckled over the tagline of the series: Celebrate Good Crimes. It is fitting.

I hope you give this fun series a chance. I know I have had a blast writing them.
Happy holidays!

★★★★★ I highly recommend this mystery, and the others in this series, to those who enjoy well-written cozy mysteries with a Southern flair and festivals for every holiday. Each is written as a standalone so they don’t have to be read in order.- Amazon Review Jeanie
★★★★★ You can never go wrong with this series. The mystery is always well-written and will keep you guessing until the end. The characters are some of my favorite in any series. I feel like I know them personally. Finally, Holiday Junction is a wonderful place to imagine living where you can have your picture made with the mayor while she is decked out in her finest red and blue collar. Yes, I said collar because the mayor is a Boston terrier. The Queen of Cozy has given us another winner, especially if you enjoy a light-hearted mystery that will challenge you as you try and solve the mystery.- Amazon Review Tammy L.
★★★★★ This book’s vivid descriptions will make you feel as if you’re watching a movie, immersing you in the story from the first page to the last. It’s a solid mystery and a fun time with Violet! Can’t wait for her next big story! I’m a big fan! – Amazon Review T. Carter
