I have received several letters asking that I find more Cozy mystery books that are "faith-based." With this in mind, I posted the
Heartsong Presents Mystery Book Series
Mystery and the Minister's Wife Mystery Book Series a while back,
and today I just posted the Church Choir Mystery Book Series.
I believe that both the Heartsong Presents and the Church Choir mystery book series were types of book clubs in the past. Since I was not a member of either of these series, I don't know exactly how they worked… I don't know whether they sent out a given number of books each month, or if you picked and chose which books you wanted each month. Either way, the mystery books appealed (and still do!) to many.
Here is an update: I have added the Hope Haven Book Series (not mysteries)
and the Home to Heather Creek Book Series (not mysteries) to the site. Both series are published by Guideposts.
If you want lists, I've got them!!! I also have a list of mystery book authors who do not use profanity in their books…
I hope that those of you who have requested these mystery book lists can use them as starting points…

Thanks for the list. I know there are some who prefer to have mysteries with no profanity in them. I do not remember if Cindy Daniel’s Death Warmed Over mystery series had profanity in them or not.
I don’t know if this has already been suggested, but as a musician I’m enjoying the mysteries of Mark Schweizer, Liturgical Detective. He somehow combines a Chief of Police with most of the other major roles in the usual small town who-dunnit. Those roles not played by our hero are often written in as part of a noirish Raymond Chandler pastiche he somehow manages write alongside his regular story. To anyone in music, or associated with churches or small towns the book is very, very funny.
Thank you, Kayanna, for the recommendation!
Do you have a list of the Grace Chapel Inn books, the Home to Heather Creek books and the Hope Haven books. I would appreciate it if you could send them to me.
Please send me a list of the Church Choir Mysteries, I do not need a description of each book, just a list. And if there is an order to them, please put them in the correct order to read. Thanking you in advance for this information. If you have correct reading order for the Grace Chapel Inn Series I would appreciate this, or tell me how to get this information.
Have a good Sunday, I’m off to Sunday School, and thank you sooooo much for your help.
Happy reading, Freda
Hi Helen and Freda,
I have just started working on those lists for you. Should have them up in a very short time. (I hope!)
Hello,
Could someone send me the list of the Home to Heather Creek series. I am trying to acquire them one at a time but I haven’t had a job since December and I don’t have the money to pay regular price. I love the books I bought the first 3 through Guideposts and then I lost my job and had to quit. Thanks so much. I love the Christian based books because you don’t have to worry about bad language or explicit love stories.
God Bless,
Linda
Hi Linda,
I have had several requests for me to list the chronological list of the
Home to Heather Creek Book Series.
I have also had requests for the
Hope Haven Book Series.
Thanks for the reminder >>> I just posted them. I don’t know the authors of some of the books, but I’m pretty sure that I have got the order of the lists correct.
