Lynn Cahoon

Click here for a post I’ve written about Lynn Cahoon’s Tourist Trap Mystery Series.

Cahoon writes the Tourist Trap Mystery Series. This series takes place in a quaint California coastal town. Jill Gardner (the sleuth) owns a shop called Coffee, Books, and More. (Just the kind of shop I would want to go inside if I were vacationing in that town!) Lynn also writes the Farm-to-Fork Mystery Series which features Angie Turner, owner of a farm to table restaurant in Idaho. Lynn also writes the Cat Latimer Mystery Series which is set in Colorado, and features an ex English professor who now owns a bed and breakfast.
