Sutton Massachusetts Mysteries — Lisa Shea

Morgan has become settled in her quiet life in Sutton, Massachusetts. Her peaceful morning yoga routine is assisted by her cat, Juliet. In the evening she guides her kayak across the placid surface of Lake Singletary. Everything is in its place.

When Morgan stumbles across a dead body in the shadowy depths of Sutton Woods, her stability is knocked askew. Jason, the ranger who comes to her aid, provides a steady rock of support. The death seems at first an accident, but Morgan knows in her heart that a delicate strut of life has fallen out of balance.

As Morgan and Jason delve into the mystery, still waters are stirred. Danger billows from the depths of Purgatory Chasm, from the twisted histories that stretch back decades. Can they unravel the tangled skeins before the past catches up with them?

All proceeds benefit battered women's shelters.

Sutton Massachusetts Mysteries contains all three full-length novels of this series in one easy-to-use set. This includes Aspen Allegations, Birch Blackguards, and Cedar Conundrums.

Aspen Allegations is the winner of the 2013 IPPY Gold Medal for Best Regional E-Book - East (covers everywhere east of the Mississippi River).

All novels in the Sutton Massachusetts Mystery series are written in a boots-on-the-ground, chapter-a-day format. Author Lisa Shea goes to the locations, experiences the atmosphere, and then infuses those rich colors, trilling birdsongs, and pungent fragrances into her story in a manner reminiscent of Annie Dillard's Pilgrim at Tinker Creek.
