Real Estate Rule #4: Beware a house covered in tangled vines, for they conceal deceit… Additional Details Here.
About ‘Villain in the Vineyard’
Realtor Helen Morrisey is smiling. Her family is close. Her business solid. Her feelings for a local detective stronger than ever. When a string of her clients’ homes are graffitied, Helen writes it off as petty efforts by bored teenagers. Until they raise the stakes.
One by one ‘Your agent is a crook’ is splashed across buildings in blood red letters. Her hometown’s growing distrust in Helen chips away at her resolve, and her business. Overnight, she’s fighting a vengeful vandal to protect her name. Why is she a target?
Her phone rings. Her heart sinks. A local business leader and friend is dead. Last to see him alive, Helen convinces police her friend’s death is no accident. It’s murder. Days later, she discovers an eccentric vineyard owner slashed with a bottle of his prized wine. Two distinctly different backgrounds. How can these two crimes be related? Or are they?
Helen is long on loyalty but short on time. Retreating is not in her DNA. She faces two choices. Does she track down the person out to destroy her? Or dig into the dead men’s list of enemies to expose their killers? Can her sleuthing smarts outwit them? Or will Helen be the next victim?
Award-winning author Judy L Murray weaves Villain in the Vineyard, fourth in her Chesapeake Bay Mystery Series, with enduring characters who band together to ensure good overcomes evil.

About ‘Piercing the Fog’
Norah Parrish gets out of the car in a Baltimore city garage to help her husband Patrick turn around when she suddenly finds herself caught on a dark street, watching him drive off without her. She is apprehended by several men in hoodies and taken hostage by their leader, who drives her blindfolded to a rowhome where she is processed for a crime of theft she did not commit and held against her will. She finds herself surrounded by other supposed “criminals” in a dingy, windowless, barely furnished upstairs room where they are all treated like animals – with no way out.
Norah discovers they are being held by a group of vigilantes who target those who appear indigent and homeless by forcibly removing them from the streets of Maryland cities and towns. When rescued by Patrick, Norah finds her husband is secretly working for an undercover government operation known as UMCO (Undercover Maryland Covert Operations) which is investigating this vigilante entity.
Getting over her anger at being used as a decoy, Norah discovers she wants to partner with her husband and help with the investigation. But she gets sucked deeper into danger at every turn and wonders if she’ll survive long enough to help other victims who have been traumatized by their imprisonment like she was.
Set in the author’s native Cecil County and other real-life settings in Maryland and Virginia, this contemporary suspense is full of riveting intrigue that addresses the question, is vigilante “justice” ever justified, and if not, how can we defeat it?

About A Killer at the Door: The Dramatic Prison Break and Manhunt for Convicted Murderer Danilo Cavalcante
The gripping true story of convicted murderer Danilo Cavalcante’s daring prison escape and intense manhunt in Chester County, PA in summer 2023.
In summer 2023, Chester County, Pennsylvania, was shaken by the daring escape of convicted murderer Danilo Cavalcante.
Using a “crab-walking” method, Cavalcante scaled a prison wall, sparking a gripping two-week manhunt. He traversed forests, farmlands, and neighborhoods, evading law enforcement and causing schools to close, businesses to shutter, and streets to empty.
The pursuit showcased his survival skills and the relentless efforts of authorities using drones, thermal imaging, K-9 units, and traditional tracking.
The saga ended in a dramatic capture, emphasizing the thin line between freedom and confinement.
Chester County resident and award-winning journalist Bruce Mowday recounts the escape and search, drawing on firsthand accounts from residents, law enforcement, officials, and local reporters.

🔎 About the Series: A Chesapeake Bay Mystery
Judy L. Murray’s debut novel, Murder in the Master, has earned major recognition:• Pencraft Awards First Place – Mystery• Silver Falchion Award – Best Cozy 2022 (Attendee)• IPPY Award – Best E-Regional Fiction 2022• Agatha Award Nominee – Best First Mystery
Set in a Chesapeake village brimming with secrets, the series follows Helen Morrisey — a sharp, gutsy real estate agent who stumbles into murder scenes that hit close to home. When a powerful local developer turns up dead, Helen is pulled into a tangled web of family empire drama, dangerous motives, and small-town tension.
With help from her own imaginary “Detection Club” of iconic female sleuths — Miss Marple, Jessica Fletcher, Nora Charles, Agatha Raisin, and Nancy Drew — Helen digs for the truth… and discovers murder-solving is a lot more dangerous than reading about it.
If you love twisty mysteries, strong heroines, and Chesapeake Bay charm, you’ll devour this series — and meet the author behind it!

Kate Taylor Moore hears his voice and immediately recognizes it’s Thorton. Forty years earlier, they missed their chance for love. But during a blizzard, at a cozy inn, a miracle unfolds. You won’t believe what happens next.
About the Book Series
The Crystal Lake Series is set in the charming town of Lakeview, Maine. Crystal Lake Inn is the heart of the series, where every guest is treated like a VIP. Crystal Lake Gifts is the welcoming anchor store on Main Street, and now, the third book in the series, Crystal Lake Christmas, will quickly draw you into a heartwarming story, where you’ll almost feel the heat from the fireplace, smell the cookies baking, and see the lights twinkling on the tree. Each book is written to be a stand-alone story, although you’ll find your favorite characters returning across the series.
