Cozy Mystery List
A Guide to Cozy Mystery (and Other Favorite) Books and DVDs
 

Authors Beginning with "E"The list of cozy mystery authors I have whose last names begin with “E” is rather short.  Janet Evanovich is a favorite of many mystery readers. She is one of those authors whose books can readily be found at the grocery store check-out, along with Jeffery Deaver, John Grisham, and other authors who have been lucky enough to become easily recognizable by most of the reading public.  I have included the list of her most famous heroine… Stephanie Plum.  Evanovich also has another mystery series featuring Alexandra Barnaby (the Metro Series), romance books (“Loveswept”) which she wrote before Stephanie Plum arrived on the scene, and another series which is touted as a romance called the Full Series (which she co-authored with Charlotte Hughes.) I think that most mystery reading groups have probably picked an Evanovich novel at least one time.

Elizabeth Eagan-Cox   Eagan-Cox writes the Shannon Delaney Mystery Series which features a writer in San Diego with ghostly encounters...

Grace F. Edwards   Her main character, Mali Anderson, is a former policewoman in New York City who then goes on to solve cases in Harlem. 

Ruth Dudley Edwards   After graduate school at Cambridge, Edwards became a civil servant in London, as well as a freelance writer. Edwards writes the Robert Amiss Mystery Series which features a retired civil servant in England.

Leslie Egan  aka Elizabeth Linington, Dell Shannon, & Anne Blaisdell.... Four different series to pick from.... all set in California.

Anthony Eglin   Eglin writes the English Garden Mystery Series. I have yet to read any of his books... as he was just recommended by a site reader.

Selma Eichler   Her Desiree Shapiro (main character) is a sassy, 5'2"  queen-sized red-head. It is refreshing to find a heroine who enjoys food!

Aaron Elkins   As a former anthropologist himself, it is no wonder that the main characters of two of his series are: a professor of Anthropology and a curator of an art museum.

Kathy Lynn Emerson  (aka Kaitlyn Dunnett)  Emerson has two series from which you can choose.... Lady Susanna Appleton is a 1600s herbalist, and Diana Spaulding is an1800s reporter, and descendant of Lady Appleton. As Dunnett, she writes the Liss MacCrimmon Mystery Series which, although it involves a Scottish Troupe Dancer, is set in Maine.

G. H. Ephron   Not cozy….. G. H. Ephron is the writing duo Hallie Ephron and Donald A. Davidoff.  Ephron has her PhD in Education, while Davidoff is a psychologist who heads up one of the units at Harvard’s psychiatric hospital and also teaches at the Harvard Medical School. Each novel deals with a different part of the human psyche.

Margaret Erskine    Erskine writes the Septimus Finch Mystery Series, which features a Scotland Yard Inspector...

Janet Evanovich    Stephanie Plum is an extremely popular series by Evanovich, and her new Barney Barnaby series looks like it will be just as successful. Both series feature very independent women who are tough, and both series have that Evanovich humor laced through them...

Jimmie Ruth Evans   (aka Honor Hartman & Dean James)Between Evans, Hartman, and James (one in the same!) there are three mystery series: the Trailer Park Mystery Series includes Kountry Kitchen recipes, the Bridge Club Mystery Series includes bridge tips, and the Simon Kirby-Jones Mystery Series.
