Storm Stayed
Welcome back to Musgrave Landing. Accessible by ferry across the Samsum Narrows, this island village is home to some quirky characters and some even odder visitors. Sometimes the visitors bring misfortune with them and other times the villagers supply their own brand of trouble. Whether the people are locals or from away, apparently a few are capable of murder.
Maisy Wyatt, is on loan from Jane’s Eats & Treats to Mrs. Roque. The housekeeper has a grand vision for the Highmere House Conference Centre. She has spared no expense with the food or service for the minor literary celebrities who will be their first guests. It won’t matter if the December weather turns bad, it takes a lot to faze Mrs. Roque.
The other new employee Tiffany Zach, will work alongside Maisy to care and feed a cantankerous group of authors from Dunn Wolf Publishing. The situation doesn’t improve when the lead author and owner of the publishing house, Ziola Nutt, announces she has a six-figure media contract with a video streaming company. This news causes shock, disappointment, and anger among the rest of the writers when they find out she will not give them credit for their work, nor any of the royalties.
Worse still, the electricity goes out during a nasty storm. Cell phones are going dead, roads are blocked by fallen trees, and ferry traffic is halted. No one can get off the island. Not even the murderer.

An unexpected visitor and an eclectic group of guests at Highmere House Conference Centre add to the chaos and confusion enveloping this small British Columbia village. Fans of cozy mysteries will love this book. A great read.

Bouquet of Darts
Leaving Amsterdam, twenty engaging personalities begin a seven-day bike and barge excursion through the Netherlands. Allegiances form, love interests develop, conflicts arise, and a cyclist’s lifeless body mars their arrival in Maastricht.
Who is responsible? The insulted chef? An angry deckhand? The most antagonized among the guests? Everyone onboard, the result of a well-wrought plot?
Eros? Could the culprit be the god of love whose arrows never miss their mark and whose intentions never falter?
Editorial Review
JD Shipton
Cupid? No. Not on this voyage. Instead we catch a ride on the breeze with Eros, and on the Dutch canals with the river barge Amoretto Algea. The perspectives from each are engaging, even challenging at times. What do you really know about love and the whims of the gods? Sterling understands well these unfathomables and the questions we ought to be asking.
