Prudence Ravenswood is dissatisfied with writing the usual tripe for the local paper. She longs to solve crimes or at the very least tell a different story.
She meets Wyatt Courtland and does a deep dive into his past to discover what she can about his brother, notorious serial killer Henry Peterson.
Prudence also catches the eye of the oh-so-sweet local gardener, Chris Barret. She finds herself torn between the cute and reliable Chris and the moody and mysterious Wyatt. She gets more than she bargained for when Henry comes to town.

on the Road South
Jean Campbell

Too bad Derek, Cole’s new foster brother, shows up. Late one night, Cole overhears Derek’s thug friends, but he thinks it’s none of his business. A week later, he’s caught up in trouble he didn’t ask for, with no way out.
With his savings, dirt bike, and a backpack of clothes, Cole flees south for Texas, where what’s left of his real family lives. His funds dwindling, he wonders if leaving Alaska was smart.
Two kids lead him into a streetwise world of hobo camps and freight trains, but what awaits Cole in Texas is a different kind of trouble.

More about Dear Prudence from Shari Rood
I got the idea for Prudence Ravenswood after seeing Ravenswood as a street name on a sign. I thought it would be a great name for the main character.
I wanted the heroine to be witty and clever and also a bit annoying at times. She’s flawed but there’s still something likable about her. I wanted to do a book in the Closet Door universe that wasn’t specifically about Henry. I wanted to have him be a background character, but still have the surroundings of the fictional town of Lakeland, Virginia.
I really enjoyed revisiting familiar characters and having them interact with the new characters in exciting and unexpected ways.

More about Lands End from Joyce Johnson
In love with San Francisco and its beauty, I was interested in the area at the most northwestern tip of the state called Lands End.
A national recreation area, this historic venue is a reminder of San Francisco’s golden years in the 1890s and includes Sutro Baths, a public plunge that allowed ocean water to fill its pools during the twice-daily high tides.
The Lands End Trail allows a visitor to walk among the cypress and eucalyptus trees and view the Pacific Ocean. Signs indicate the danger of falling off the cliff, which some unlucky travelers have discovered. Perfect place for a mystery.

I wrote most of this story pre-Covid, but then moved across the country to Arkansas just before Covid hit and found myself with a lot of time on my hands. I wanted the central character to travel a long way—from Alaska to Arkansas, but he only made it as far as west Texas!
The idea came to me because I spent a summer in Alaska and was considering how tough it was to travel south—all the physical obstacles and sheer distance. How would a kid get onto the ferry, a plane, or a bus? Why would he want to leave? Maybe he was in fear for his life while being drawn to another place.
It turned out family would be both the carrot and the stick, but it took him (and me) a long trip to figure that out. I’m glad he made it south, but I wonder if he’ll stay there, should this turn into a longer tale.
