Spring 2023 Mystery Releases

February 28, 2023 by Author Leena Clover Leave a Comment

Hi there! Spring is around the corner and I have a couple of big releases lined up for you. Both of these are first books in new series. So get ready to encounter new characters and visit new worlds while you solve some nice juicy mysteries.

Murder at Buxley Manor

Order here –> https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BVG7V2DY

This is a historical mystery set in the 1920s. I have been planning and researching this for the past three years. For now, this is a trilogy with three books that will be best read in a serial fashion. The stories get really intense so be prepared to scratch your head as you try to figure out whodunnit. Like all my books, there’s plenty of fun with friends and family and lots of yummy food.

Murder at Buxley Manor releases on March 9 and will be available in Kindle, paperback and large print.

Sail Away Patsy

Order here –> https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09XHY3PBG

If you were sorry to see the Dolphin Bay series end, all is not lost. Meg Butler is off to work on a cruise ship and gets her own series. Fans of cruise cozy mysteries (have you read Mango Chili Cruiser and Croissants and Cruises yet?) are in for a treat. Expect plenty of hijinks, fast paced action and shenanigans in this new series as Meg travels the world with her sidekicks in tow.

The first book has Meg bumbling along as an intern, trying to win a coveted prize. Book your copy now so it lands on your Kindles on April 4.

NEW RELEASE – Strawberry Vanilla Peril is here!

I am so pleased to announce that Book 7 in the Dolphin Bay Cozy Mystery series is now live on Kindle. The paperback and large print version is also available right now.

There are only two more books left in the series so if you haven’t started it yet, I recommend you pick up Book 1 and start reading. All the books can be read as standalones but they are much more enjoyable when read in order.

Get your copy now and enjoy. 🙂

Strawberry Vanilla Peril – A Cozy Murder Mystery

Champion Cyclist Falls to Death

It’s spring in Dolphin Bay and a big cycle race is passing through town. Anna’s Cafe sets up a stall with snacks and drinks for the participants. When a well known cyclist crashes to his death in the woods, the police blame the lemonade.

Suddenly, Anna’s granddaughter is the top suspect because she was seen handing out drinks to the dead guy. Anna and company are stumped because the victim was a total stranger who didn’t know any of them. The new detective in town wants to close the case soon and time is running out.

Meanwhile, the mayor and her minions target Meg and convince the locals to blackball her.

Can Anna and the Firecrackers use their sleuthing skills and solve the murder before it’s too late?

Strawberry Vanilla Peril is a clean, cozy mystery with fast paced action, twists and turns and a baffling murder mystery that will keep you guessing till the end.

Don’t miss this latest instalment in the much loved Dolphin Bay Cozy Mystery series.

Hello everyone! It’s been a while since I wrote on the blog. My one excuse is that I have been busy. There is lots of news to share but I am going to keep this brief.

Large Print Cozies! We don’t have enough of them. Plus they are very hard to find on Amazon as many of you have told me. I agree.

Some of my fellow authors put our heads together and decided to curate a special large print collection for you.

January 5, 2021 by Author Leena Clover Leave a Comment

Welcome to 2021. Hope you and your loved ones are doing well and staying safe.

I have a new release for you. It’s a collection of some of my favorite mysteries, set against a backdrop of love. I thought it would be perfect for the new year and Valentine’s Day.

Dolphin Bay #6 is with the editor and I hope to release it by the end of this month or early February.

Also in the works, new covers for the Dolphin Bay Series. I might ask you to choose one out of my final picks.

Now about Must Love Murder

Do you like the title? Of course, it’s based on Must Love Dogs, one of my favorite rom coms. What happened to 90s style romcoms?

This contains five – yes, FIVE – full books and I am offering the collection for a new year special price of 99c. It does not get better than this, believe me.

For Kindle Unlimited users, you can of course binge on all these five books for free with a single borrow.

And there are recipes at the end!

New Year Special Edition – Five Book Cozy Mystery Collection with recipes – FREE with Kindle Unlimited

‘Love is all you need’, the Beatles crooned. But what happens when that love is not the epic love story you expected?

Must Love Murder is a handpicked collection of five full length bestselling cozy mysteries set against a backdrop of love. Perfect to welcome the new year and get in the mood for Valentine’s Day.

If you like clean cozy mysteries featuring strong heroines, nonstop action, yummy food and a dash of romance, you are going to love this anthology.

Christmas Cookie Exchange

October 30, 2020 by Author Leena Clover 1 Comment

Hello there! Hope you are doing well. The holiday season is just around the corner and I thought of having an online cookie exchange to get in the mood for the festive season.

Here’s what I’m thinking –

You can send in as many recipes as you like. Name them whatever you want. For example, Aunt Joan’s Oatmeal Raisin Cookies or Grandma Betty’s Sugar Cookies or Best Snickerdoodle etc.

Add whatever information you want about you. For example, Mel from Alaska or Retired Nurse from Missouri etc.

Add a photo of the cookies if you like. This is optional but remember, a picture speaks a 1000 words!

If I get a minimum of 20 recipes from you, I will compile all of them and put them online.

And yes, everyone can download this book for FREE and share it with friends and family.

I hope you are as excited about this idea as I am. This is a great way to mingle with people from across the world and share your family recipes. Especially when we can’t get out much and our movements are curtailed.

Cookies and Christmas

Have you been waiting for the next book in the Pelican Cove series? Well, your wait is over. If you preordered the book, it should land on your Kindle today.

Jenny faces the challenge of a lifetime, solving a murder that never happened.

That’s all from me today. I hope you are hanging in there.

Many Thanks
