Wreath

HOUSE STRENGTH: Crooked Lane has seen excellent sales in the cozy genre, as evinced by Lefty Award winner Dying for a Taste and USA Today bestseller Plantation Shudders, so Widow’s Wreath fits right at home with our list.

BELOVED SERIES: Crooked Lane is excited to take on the long-reigning Martha’s Vineyard mysteries, which has been a cozy fan favorite for years.

AUTHOR EXPERIENCE: Cynthia Riggs has penned the long-standing, beloved series which was originally published through Minotaur Books. She also lives on Martha’s Vineyard where the book is set, and where she is an 8th generation Islander who is uniquely positioned to promote her work to locals and tourists alike. She belongs to two writers groups there, in addition to Sisters in Crime and MWA.
