Mystery
Non-series mysteries
For two decades, the lush, isolated forests of the North Cascades have hidden a secret. Now, twenty years later, a mysterious contest has brought Mindy Harris back to the area she thought she’d left behind forever. A seemingly innocent creative design firm shows up for a company retreat, but all goes awry when one of their own turns up dead. Was it an accident? Murder? And how does the unsolved mystery from twenty years ago play into it all?

Final Chapter: A Megan Montaigne Mystery
For Megan Montaigne, library director, living in the top floor of the mansion-turned-library is a dream come true. At least it was, before the murders started.
Megan Montaigne has always secretly wanted to be a forensics investigator. The small-town library director has just begun rebuilding her life after tragedy tore it apart less than a year ago, and is happily settling into her new apartment on the top floor of the library by the river. But when a local celebrity turns up dead, the time has come to put her sleuthing fantasies into action. Has she unwittingly invited the murderer into her own home? And will she be able to prove her innocence before she becomes a victim herself?
A Conventional Murder: A Megan Montaigne Mystery
A travel writing convention has brought writers, bloggers, and vloggers to cozy Emerson Falls. But for one of the writers, this trip will be his last.
Emerson Falls couldn’t be more idyllic: a cozy town tucked into a bend of the Skagit River, up in the northern part of Washington state, near an area known as the American Alps. With the stunning new convention center downstairs in the town’s mansion-turned-library, it seems like the perfect place for a travel writing convention. But the fun has barely begun when one of the star writers is found dead.
The Caramel Crow: A Megan Montaigne Mystery
How well does anyone truly know their neighbors?
While birders from around the country have gathered in Edmonds, Washington, to try to spot a truly rare bird, another rare bird alert comes in from nearby Emerson Falls. A leucistic crow—a mutation in its pigments, causing lighter feathers—has been spotted. A handful of birders flock to the small town and discover an inland paradise awaits. But in a moment when the entire town is celebrating, a cloud of death moves in, and the town residents and visitors discover not everything is as it seems.
Can Megan Montaigne solve a mystery swarming with suspects and motives before the FBI takes over the case?

“Pam Stucky’s book The Universes Inside the Lighthouse was a delightful surprise for me. As a scientist, I usually stray away from science fiction because when it isn’t done well, it leaves me screaming at the books; however this book was extremely intelligently written. I actually stayed up late on several nights because I couldn’t put the book down. The premise of the book, on the surface, appears to be far-fetched, but trust me, read the book and discover an adventure of a lifetime. The characters in the story are well developed and the overall plot lays the foundation for a series of books to come in this Balky Point Adventure series.” From Books, Babies and Bows
