About the Series:

Death doesn’t take a vacation, but neither does justice.Returning to her sleepy hometown in Pennsylvania was the last thing former athlete Julia “JJ” Kamaras thought she’d ever do. So was solving murders.

Stuck in Florida with a dead-end gym job and non-existent love life, JJ’s world is upended when disaster strikes. Her Greek-American father convinces her to return to the supposed safety of Jim Thorpe, PA, and their family restaurant, the Kamaras Grill. But security proves fleeting when murder shatters the town’s tranquility.

Teaming up with her quick-witted friends, Rebecca and Gwen Q, JJ finds herself thrust into dangerous games of cat and mouse. From the neon-lit casinos of Las Vegas to the sun-drenched coasts of Italy, they dive into treacherous underworld scenes, always one step behind a killer who seems to anticipate their every move.

With each new locale comes fresh peril, testing the limits of their skills and resolve. As the clock ticks down and the stakes rise, JJ and her team race to outsmart the murderous culprits, hoping their pursuit of justice won’t cost them everything—including their own lives.

Four books. Four thrilling adventures. One relentless quest for the truth. Recipes from the Kamaras Grill included!

My Review:

Get ready to sink into hours of cozy mystery reading fun! One frequent drawback of reading series fiction is the waiting between books. We just want to know what our favorite characters are up to now! Thanks to Joy Patrick bundling all four of her cozy mysteries together you can start at the beginning and read, read, read! 

Excellent writing pulled me from the very start of heart-pounding book one! I made the mistake of starting this series before bed one night, foolishly thinking I’d read a few pages and then call it a night. As most readers can guess, that didn’t happen. 

I enjoyed following the character arcs throughout the series and found each mystery full of twists and turns. The emphasis on family and friends made the characters ones I rooted for and enjoyed being with until the very end. 

Don’t sleep on this set of entertaining mysteries!
