NIck and Nora's Tenth Anniversary

 

Ten years ago on December 2, 2014, a little cozy mystery called Meow if its Murder made its debut from Berkley Prime Crime.  The story centered around a former true crime reporter, Nora Charles, investigating a cold case about a wealthy woman's drowning.  Along the way she meets a tubby tuxedo cat she names Nick - and a new mystery solving duo was born!

I first got the idea for this series one day when I was watching THE THIN MAN on Turner.  My twenty-five pound tuxedo cat ROCCO jumped on my lap and I thought - what if Nick Charles died and came back as a cat? Hence the first incarnation of Nick and  Nora was born.

ld 

In the first draft, Nick actually talked!  But only Nora could hear him.  When my agent submitted it, though, the powers that be at Berkley liked the story, but they didn't want the cat talking.  i imagine it was because that might have taken it out of the cozy category and made it more of a  fantasy. Anyway, I went back and rewrote the book, giving half Nick's dialogue to Nora's BFF Chantal and the other half to a completely new character, PI Ollie.  My agent resubmitted it and thankfully, Berkley bought it!  That was back in January of 2013.  Then I was informed that the book would debut in December---of the following year!

Well, that gave me time to start writing the next two books I was contracted for  :)

Nick and Nora debuted on Tuesday, December 2, 2014 and within two weeks made the national bestselling list.  Two more novels from Berkley followed:  CLAWS FOR ALARM and CRIME AND CATNIP.  Then came the Random House/Penguin merger, and alas, Nick and Nora were dropped along with many other excellent cozy mysteries.

Over the next five years we tried unsuccessfully to place Nick and Nora elsewhere.  finally another author told me about Beyond the Page.  We sent a proposal to Bill Harris who accepted it, and Nick and Nora came back to life with volume #4, HISS H FOR HOMICIDE, on February 9, 2021!

I never gave up on Nick and Nora....and thankfully neither did their fans!  

Here's a list of all the Nick and Nora's to date

#1 - Meow of its Murder - Nora Charles, an ex true crime reporter, gets involved investigating the cold case murder of a wealthy woman - with a tubby tuxedo cat named Nick as her partner.

#2  Claws for Alarm - Nora and Nick investigate when Nora's sister Lacey is accused of the murder of her art professor.

#3 Crime and Catnip - Nora and NIck deal with a missing person case and a murder

#4 - Hiss H for Homicide - Nora and Nick help clear an old friend of her  mother's of the murder of her writing partner.

#5 Murder Faux Paws - Nora and Nick investigate the shady death of a PI and end up following a trail that leads to a shady conspsiracy. 

#6 - A Purr Before Dying - Nora's catering gig for a nighttime soap opera filming in Cruz leads, inevitably, to murder.  and when Chantal's brother is accused of the crime Nick and Nora find themselves working overtime to clear him.

#7 - Bell, Book and Corpses - Vampires in Cruz? It seems that way when a body, drained of blood, turns up at the site of Cruz's Halloween gala and Nick and Nora investigate.

Beyond the Page has contracted me for four more Nick and Nora's, so that means that this duo will be sticking around till 2028 at least for adventures 8 through 11!  

Nick, Nora and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your support! As long as you keep reading, we'll keep writing!

Rocco and Chazz review EJ Copperman's GOOD LIEUTENANT

 Meow!  It's time for another book by our good friend E.J. Copperman! This time it's the sixth (and, sadly, final) entry in the Jersey Girl series, Good Lieutenant!

Synopsis:

LA lawyer Sandy Moss comes to falsely accused lieutenant Trench's aid in this final instalment of the critically acclaimed legal cozy mystery series.

While settling into her new home in Los Angeles together with her boyfriend and TV star Patrick McNabb, attorney Sandy Moss receives a phone call from the LA Men’s Detention Center. It’s a new client accused of murder: the near-stoic Lt. K.C. Trench!

Being good at his job but not well-liked in his department, Trench is accused of killing a fellow LA police officer whom he openly despised and threatened. With the odds against her, Sandy takes on the case of her sometime nemesis/sometime ally. She is certain that Trench can’t be the killer. It seems like someone is trying to pin the murder on him, but who and why? And what isn’t Trench telling her?

Our review:

Chazz:  This is the first Jersey Girl for me and now I have to go and read the human's others.  What great characters EJ Copperman creates!  and without a cat in the story!  I love the way Sandy plunges whole heartedly into investigating the stodgy Trench who finds it hard to crack a smile.  I must admit though that Patrick does get a bit trying at times.  The story was well written and fans of this too short lived series will not be disappointed.

ROCCO:  Like the human, I have long been a fan of EJ's.  I love the way he can effortlessly put a touch of humor in everything he writes and the Jersey Girl series is an excellent example of that.  I admit I shed a tear at the end, mostly because I know it was Sandy and Patrick's last adventure.  A definite five paws read.

This book is out today so hurry to your local store or computer and get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lila Macapagal lives in small town Shady Palms, Illinois, where she and her best friends run the Brew-ha Cafe. They serve delicious Filipino-inspired treats, and they solve crimes on the side. In GUILT AND GINATAAN (Berkley Prime Crime Trade Original; on sale November 12, 2024), the fifth highly anticipated novel in Manansala’s series, homicide follows Lila and her pals to the annual Shady Palms Corn Festival—and Lila will have to put on her sleuthing cap to find the true killer when one of her BFFs is framed for murder. 

 

Fall festivities are in full swing in small-town Shady Palms—but with the arrival of scary season comes a new and deadly mystery for Lila to solve. During the annual Shady Palms Corn Festival, Lila and her Brew-ha Café gals Adeena and Elena set up a booth selling corn-themed treats. It’s all fun and games until the trio embark on a competition through the corn maze—and Adeena is found holding a knife beside a corpse. The body is discovered to be a local politician’s wife, and all signs—murder weapon included—point to Adeena as the culprit. But Lila knows her best friend couldn’t have done this, and it’s up to her and her crew to clear Adeena’s name and put the real murderer behind bars. 

 

Just as readers were craving more diverse voices in the mystery space, Manansala whipped up Arsenic and Adobo (2021), offering up a delectable first taste of an entirely original mystery series. Manansala’s books embrace the conventions of the cozy genre while also expanding them, introducing readers to a modern Filipina heroine who faces real, relatable issues as she solves mysteries. GUILT AND GINATAAN offers no exception.

 

GUILT AND GINATAAN is perfect for readers of Jesse Q. Sutanto and Roselle Lim, and for fans of cozy mysteries!

Rocco and Chazz spotlight MRS. ODBODDY AND THE CONNIVING CANDIDATE!

Today we are turning the spotlight on the fifth Ms. Odboddy book, Mrs. Odboddy and the Conniving

Candidate!

the Story:

As the war continues to rage in Europe, Election Day approaches in Newbury. Among other inequities,

 the Newbury City Council makes it difficult for local women to obtain business licenses even for home-bases 

businesses. Mrs. Odboddy decides to run for the vacant city council seat, but she has no idea what political 

obstacles she will face. The trouble starts, first with disasters in her home, to violence and racism against 

her friends, and then theft charges are filed against her!

To make matters worse, her granddaughter’s old boyfriend has returned to town declaring his unwanted, 

undying love. His heroic responses to multiple adverse events affecting the family make it difficult for 

Katherine to send him packing.

Agnes suspects her political opponent is behind all the trouble, including the state’s attempts to remove 

their beloved ward, Mattie. It seems that Agnes is up against a conniving opponent who will stop at nothing

to prevent her winning the election. How can she prevail against such sinister deeds? Is winning an 

election worth it when her family is at risk?

Join Agnes as she faces overwhelming odds in her efforts to bring much needed change to Newbury.

ROCCO:  Both Chazz and I thought that this was a very timely story, considering all that is going on in the world today!  Mrs. Odboddy fans will not be disappointed and new fans will love to follow along with Agnes! (and of course, there are cats Shere Kahn and Ling Ling!)

CHAZZ:  Politics is truly a dirty business and Mrs. Odboddy finds that out first hand!  Fans will cheer right along with Agnes as she attempts to get to the bottom of things and clear her name!  Agnes is a very strong character you can't help but admire and cheer for.  the only thing that would have made this book better were more of the cats, Ling-Ling and Shere Kahn.  LOL.

ROCCO:  We both agree - this book answers the question is winning an election worth it!  I thought the ending very timely and fitting indeed.   Available at Amazon and other fine retailers now in paperback and e-book format.

Librarian Kathleen Paulson is in for a spell of trouble when she finds a dead body, and only
her reliable magical cats can help her tail a killer in the newest installment of this 

New York Times bestselling series.

Kathleen is busy running the library and planning her upcoming wedding to detective Marcus 

Gordon when she suddenly stumbles across a body in the library. She is surprised to learn that 

the deceased was in the middle of an unlikely heist—it seems he was trying to steal one of the

 paintings that had been  in a box in the library’s workroom. Kathleen never knew any of the 

library’s rotating artwork was valuable nd can’t imagine what the dead man wanted with it.

But then an art history expert called in by the police identifies the almost-purloined painting as a 

piece that might have been part of a previous high profile art theft. Owen’s and Hercules’s whiskers 

are already twitching, and events soon make Kathleen realize that whoever killed the wannabe 

art thief has more than  murder on their mind. Kathleen and her clever cats will have to work fast to prevent 

anyone else from dying........

Another excellent entry in this series that always leaves us wanting more!  Who doesn't love a cat, let alone

a magical one!!!! Five Paws

Bookmobile Cat Mysteries.

When a heat wave hits northern Michigan, Minnie, Eddie, and their bookmobile head to the beach to catch

Rocco and Chazz review One of You by Lorie Lewis Ham

 Rocco here! Today Chazz and I review a new book by Lorie Lewis Ham, ONE OF YOU.

With her life on the California Coast behind her, Roxi Carlucci is beginning to feel at home in the Tower District—the cultural oasis of Fresno, CA—where she now lives 

where she now lives with her cousin P.I. Stephen Carlucci, her pet rat Merlin, a Pit Bull named Watson, 

and a black cat named Dan. 

She has a new entertainment podcast, works as a part-time P.I., and is helping local bookstore owner Clark

 Halliwell put on the first-ever Tower Halloween Mysteryfest! 

The brutal summer heat is gone and has been replaced by the dense tule fog—perfect for Halloween!

She just wishes everyone would stop calling her the “Jessica Fletcher” of the Tower District simply 

because she found a dead body when she first arrived. But when one of the Mysteryfest authors 

is found dead, she fears she jinxed herself! The Carlucci’s are hired to find the killer before they strike again.

 Will Mysteryfest turn into a murder fest? How is the local gossip website back, 

and what does it know about the death of Roxi’s parents?

Rocco: I found this to be a very entertaining book, as I did the first in this series.  

Roxi is a hoot and of course, who can resist a black cat named Dan?  

Love the California theme with the entertainment tie in.  jthe Halloween killer theme was also good.

 I cant wait to see what that gossip website knows about Roxi's parents! can't wait where Roxi goes from here!

Chazz:  I also enjoyed the book. Ms. Ham has created a memorable sleuth in Roxi, and 

the California entertainment background I found to be very interesting.  

I mean, who has a podcast anand also works as a part time PI with her cousin. 

 I thought the action at the Halloween Mysteryfest was very well thought out and it did remind me 

of episodes of Murder She Wrote.. I'm curious to see where that gossip website goes too!  

A four paw winner!

Rocco and Chazz interveiw author Molly MacRae

 Ma-Row!  Today Chazz and I are interviewing author Molly MacRae!

The Boston Globe says Molly MacRae writes “murder with a dose of drollery.” In addition to the Haunted Shell Shop Mysteries, Molly writes the award-winning, national bestselling Haunted Yarn Shop Mysteries and the Highland Bookshop Mysteries. As Margaret Welch she writes books for Annie’s Fiction and Guideposts. Molly’s short stories have appeared in Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine and she’s a winner of the Sherwood Anderson Award for Short Fiction.

 

Rocco:  Welcome back to the blog, Molly  It’s been a while since we last chatted! So refresh our memory about your background

MMR:  It has been a while! Nice to be here, again, though. Now I can add retried fake librarian (no MLS degree) to my list of former jobs – former sheltered workshop supervisor, museum director, independent bookstore manager. 

As for the writing – it’s taken off nicely. There are now six books in my Haunted Yarn Shop Mysteries, five in my Highland Bookshop Mysteries, two stand-alone mysteries, six books under the name Margaret Welch (four for Annie’s Fiction and two for Guideposts), and a new series debuting June 25^th – the Haunted Shell Shop Mysteries. 

Chazz:  Nice to meet you, Molly!  Tell us a bit about your latest book/series.

MMR: The Haunted Shell Shop Mysteries take place on Ocracoke Island, one of the Outer Banks barrier islands off the coast of North Carolina. The books are about Maureen Nash, a storyteller specializing in fables and folklore about shells (she’s also a malacologist – a scientist who studies mollusks), and Emrys Lloyd, the ghost of an eighteenth-century pirate. At the start of Come Shell or High Water, book one, Maureen tells the reader, “On the tail of a hurricane, half-drowned in the chaos of whirlwind, deluge, thunder, and lightning, I washed up on Ocracoke Island.” She immediately corrects herself. Her arrival wasn’t that dramatic, the hurricane was fairly mild, and she got ride over in a friend’s boat. “I was half-drowned,” she says. “But half-drowned by my assumptions, not the storm.”

ROCCO:  How do you construct your plots? Do you outline or do you write “by the seat of your pants”?

MMR: I’m a plotter, because I love a good outline and knowing where I’m going, but my very long and detailed outline is really a very, very rough first draft with room for pantsing along the way.

Chazz:  What are you working on now and what are your future writing plans?

MMR:  I’m eleven days out from the deadline for book two in the series – There’ll be Shell to Pay. I’m at the scream-writing stage. Picture a writer at a keyboard in an old fashioned kiddie car careening down a hill screaming as she types. It’s an exciting way to live.  (Rocco:  Yes, the human often does that as well heh heh heh)

Chazz:  What advice do you have to offer to an aspiring author?

Read, write, revise, repeat. Network with other writers. Persevere.

Rocco:  What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?

MMR: For some reason, when I did a program and signing at a very nice arts council in Michigan, I thought it would be a good idea to do something fun to illustrate the writer’s life. I said to the audience, mainly senior citizens, “Do you know what the best thing about being a writer is?” They shook their heads. I said, “I’ll show you.” To quite a few gasps, I peeled out of the slightly oversized clothes I’d worn, revealing my pajamas and bathrobe, and said, “I get to work in my pajamas.” They loved it but I’m not sure I’ll ever do that again.

Rocco:  What question do you wish interviewers would ask? (And what’s the answer?)

MMR: Q: If I give you your own private writing room that looks like a miniature and very cool library and has a secret door and a window with a window seat – with no strings attached except to write - will you accept?

A: Sure.

 

Thank you for a lovely interview, Molly!

And we’re not done yet – now Molly tackles ROCCO and Chazz’s Fast Five:

• What’s something that’s always in your fridge? Fresh ginger
• If you weren’t a writer, what would you be? When I was little I wanted to be a rabbit and then a Canadian Mountie. Are they still options?
• What’s your favorite part of the day? Meals
• What food do you wish was calorie free? Chocolate
• Holidays: Party at home, or go out for a glam dinner? Home with family gathered
