Not a Chance in Helen
by Susan McBride

What do you do when the town’s wealthiest octogenarian is poisoned? Why, investigate, of course!

Seventy-five-year-old grandmother Helen Evans lives in River Bend, Illinois. A town where murder simply doesn’t happen. But Eleanora Duncan has just been found dead . . .

Eleanora was the biggest battle-ax in River Bend. She lived alone with her giant orange cat, Lady Godiva. Who could have poisoned her?

What’s more, resident sleuth Helen Evans recently saved Eleanora from a hit-and-run. The elderly widow was certain someone was deliberately targeting her.

Bumbling Sheriff Biddle is convinced that Eleanora’s daughter-in-law is the culprit. The pair may have had a frosty relationship, but Helen knows her friend is not a murderer.

And there’s not a chance in Helen that our crossword enthusiast will sit this puzzle out. Helen vows to uncover the truth in this fun and fresh small-town mystery.

An utterly charming cozy murder mystery by an award-winning author, perfect for fans of Deany Ray, Kathi Daley, Tricia O’Malley and Jeanne M. Dams.

Genre: Historical Crime & Mystery
