Almost any sixtyish widow and grandmother would want to rest and recuperate after solving an international case of murder and intrigue (Red Sea, Dead Sea), but not Fanny Zindel. Shortly after her safe return home, she's off to Yorkshire, England, as the B'nai Brith representative to the Clifford's Tower Memorial service. The trip to York provides the perfect opportunity to visit her beloved granddaughter, horse-crazy Susan, who is attending the nearby Taddington Agricultural Boarding School. Of course, mayhem follows Fanny wherever she goes, and before she has even checked into her hotel, she has broken up a domestic squabble and found a new friend also attending the conference. The visit is going wonderfully until Mary Louise Malbys, a malicious classmate, engineers Susan's expulsion from school. Matters go from bad to worse when Mary Louise is murdered and Susan is the prime suspect. Mistrusting the efforts of the local police, Fanny launches into an investigation of her own with the reluctant assistance of Nathan Weiss, the semi-retired Mossad agent who had come from Israel, at Susan's urging, for a surprise visit with Fanny. Clearing Susan is not so easy, especially considering the sheer number of people with motive and opportunity for doing away with the nasty Mary Louise. Once again, though, Fanny's insight and determination put her on the right track to trapping the killer in a very sticky situation.

Oy! What’s a Sunday without bagels? Every Sunday morning, no matter the weather, Eli could count on Zaida to bring bagels from Merv’s Bakery.

Or is there something Eli can do? With a schmear of humor and an oven-warmed heart, this is a timeless story kids will crave!

Campbell Harrison is obsessed with books. So, when she quits her day job, leaving behind her dysfunctional family, and decides to move to a small town where no one knows her and she knows no one, she breathes relief for the first time in years. With plans to open up a brick and mortar bookshop, she gives up most of her life's savings to sign a year-long lease on a space in an old building downtown. She doesn't think twice about it. It's been her dream for as long as she can remember and now is not the time to start second guessing her decision to move. But shortly after, Campbell realizes she may have bitten off more than she can chew, even with the town's support in her little, but big dream. When the charming Bishop Graham, a veteran-turned firefighter with a past he'd rather not talk about, shows up on the stoop of her bookshop late one night at closing, Campbell all but dismisses him as an annoying customer. But the more she sees him around the small town, the more curious she becomes about who he is, and why he too came to this middle-of-nowhere town to escape. With just a few months left on her lease and the holidays quickly appreaoching, Campbell has been dreading some big conversations. What is her next step? What is it exactly is it she's been running from? Where does the bookshop stand when her lease is over? With growing anxiety and anticipation over what is to come, Campbell finds herself longing for a sign that she is exactly where she is meant to be.
