Heartland to Hometown Mysteries
At the heart of the series is Leni Spencer, a 24-year-old reporter for the Hawkinston Daily News. Born and reared in small-town Hawkinston, Missouri, she leads a seemingly linear life, living in the family home she inherited when her parents died and working for her hometown newspaper.
The stories she covers are local. But people come and go in a small town. They have roots or interests elsewhere. The Next Great Discovery takes her to New Orleans. In The Past Is Not at Rest, she visits the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. In The Cost of Silence , she mixes with Hollywood celebrities in Southern California.
New to the series? Start with Book 1, The Next Great Discovery. Each novel can be read independently, but readers who begin with Book 1 will enjoy watching Leni Spencer's world grow from one mystery to the next.
