Penny’s First Adventure
Katelyn’s Killer is set in Annapolis Maryland, where the scent of English boxwoods mingles with the scent of old money.
Ex-Navy Public Affairs Officer Penny Summers’ first foray as a Master Gardener brings her face to face with her dead St. John’s College “sister.” After the funeral, Katelyn’s boyfriend Aaron joins Penny in her quest for answers. But when her day-job boss puts her in charge of a monster festival, Penny is up to her tramp stamp in conflicting allegiances.
Annapolis detective Jason Keller hopes to nail a cocaine-smuggling sailor for the murder and warns the duo from the dangers of sleuthing. (“I’m not interested in working another murder. Capiche?”) Penny and Aaron’s suspects include a millionaire candidate for governor, a college tutor, and the victim’s mother.
Katelyn’s Killer is woven into the fabric of Annapolis Maryland, and its two most famous schools, historic St. John’s College and the U. S. Naval Academy. If you enjoy a good whodunnit, you’ll love this socially-conscious traditional mystery that explores PTSD, family secrets, and Munchausen’s Syndrome by Proxy.
