Death at Balsam Bay
Book One
Tilly Lafleur came home to find answers about her father’s disappearance—not to solve a murder.
​
But when a local man is found dead just days after she starts asking questions, it’s clear someone in Balsam Bay is hiding more than old grudges. The town is in turmoil over a proposed mining deal, and while the police are convinced her father’s disappearance was an accident, Tilly isn’t so sure.
​
With her loyal dog Des and her sharp-witted daughter Callie by her side, Tilly must unravel a tangle of secrets before someone else gets hurt. One mystery may stay buried… but one thing’s certain: there’s a killer close to home.
​
A layered, small-town mystery with heart, wit, and a dash of wilderness. Perfect for fans of traditional cozies with a touch of adventure.

Death at Aurora Point
Book Two
The Aurora Nights Festival is supposed to bring light to Balsam Bay’s long autumn nights—but this year, the glow turns deadly.
​
When a travel podcaster’s body is found beneath the northern lights, Tilly Lafleur finds herself pulled into another small-town mystery that hits closer to home than she’d like. The festival’s glittering façade hides simmering rivalries, old resentments, and a community still uneasy after her father’s disappearance.
​
As rumours swirl and secrets surface, Tilly begins to suspect the truth runs deeper than envy—and that someone will do anything to keep it hidden.
With her daughter Callie, loyal dog Des, and a few trusted allies by her side, Tilly must untangle truth from illusion before the lights fade and the killer slips away for good.
​
Death at Aurora Point is a heart-stirring cozy mystery set under Manitoba’s dazzling northern skies—where every glimmer hides a shadow, and every secret has its season.

Death at Diamond Hill
Book Three
When the snow falls, the secrets rise.
Winter has settled over Balsam Bay, but peace is in short supply. When a mysterious company buys the ridge above the lake, plans for a new ski development stir fresh unease through the already divided northern Manitoba town.
Tilly Lafleur—shopkeeper, former search-and-rescue leader, and reluctant community mediator—had hoped for a quiet season at McKay’s General Store. But those plans vanish when she discovers a body near the soon-to-open resort. With her loyal dog Des at her side and her daughter Callie following her own trail of clues, Tilly is drawn into an investigation that runs deeper than anyone expected.
As tensions rise and old loyalties crack open, Tilly begins to see how closely the town’s future is tied to its buried past—and how far someone will go to keep those secrets frozen in the snow.
Set against the stark beauty of a northern Manitoba winter, Death at Diamond Hill is a heartfelt cozy mystery about loyalty, community, and uncovering truth where you least expect it.
