🕵️♀️✨ Cozy mystery lovers,
I’m excited to share a fun milestone: the release of my 30th book, Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing—a cozy winter mystery at Cobble Hill Farm! For those following the Mysteries of Cobble Hill Farm multi-author series from Guideposts, this is Book #9, set in February on a beautiful and sometimes blustery Yorkshire farm.
In Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing, we return to Yorkshire in time for lambing season, which brings all the joys—and occasional chaos—of rural farm life in winter. But there’s more than Dr. Harriet Bailey’s veterinary duties keeping her busy. Across the Yorkshire countryside, sheep are disappearing, causing alarm amongst the farmers. The situation becomes personal for Harriet when Doreen Danby, Harriet’s friend and neighbor, reports her prized ram, Prince Charming, among the missing. Prince Charming is a valuable, award-winning ram, making his loss a devastating blow to Doreen and raising Harriet’s suspicions.
At the same time, Harriet must write an article for a veterinary magazine. Inspired by a haunting story from the 1940s about a Yorkshire shepherd who vanished one stormy night, leaving behind a cloud of unanswered questions, she dives into local records, piecing together fragments of history, hoping to separate legend from fact. What happened to the shepherd, and could this mystery have a bearing on the recent spate of sheep disappearances?
With her knowledge of animal behavior, her keen sense for details, and her unshakeable resolve, Harriet embarks on a quest to uncover the truth. But with each clue she uncovers, she realizes that the mystery goes deeper than she initially thought, and solving it might require her to expose secrets that some in the Yorkshire community would prefer remained buried.
