Genealogy Roadshow

I'm glad to see that Genealogy Roadshow is back on TV.  I applied to be on the show and told them about my relative from Scotland who was forced to flee to America in 1716 because he fought against the British army.  Once his family knew he'd arrived safely in America, they sent him a chest of gold coins that he supposedly buried, but nobody has been able to find it. I haven't heard from the producers of the show yet, but I did write about it in the first two chapters of my murder/mystery Honeymoon in Savannah: A Detective Santy Mystery. 

My book's main character is a homicide detective who comes to Savannah on her honeymoon after she'd been on Genealogy Roadshow where they'd told her about her family in Georgia whom she never met nor knew existed.  Her newly-found cousins invite her to Savannah for a family reunion and while she's there, her cousin who is a famous chef, is murdered.  Even though it's her honeymoon, she can't help but get involved in the search for the killer.

Honeymoon In Savannah Is Here

Hello, dear readers:

We have just published our latest murder mystery. It is called "Honeymoon in Savannah: A Detective Santy Mystery."

Here's a brief description:

While on her honeymoon in Savannah, Georgia, Detective Clarissa Santy hopes to spend a nice quiet time with her husband in one of America’s most beautiful cities. She and her husband are both big fans of “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil”, so they decide to make a pilgrimage to Savannah to see the sights mentioned in the book. Her time as a tourist is short-lived however when one of Savannah’s famous chefs is brutally murdered. The chef just happens to be Clarissa’s cousin--so this is personal--and Clarissa can’t rest until she finds out whodunit. Was the murderer a fellow chef? Someone hoping to inherit her estate? An angry, jealous boyfriend? A disgruntled employee? Join Clarissa in this riveting tale that climaxes at the famous Bonaventure cemetery.

This book has something for everybody: it’s part murder/mystery; part travelogue; part romance novel; and even includes a search for a buried treasure. What holds it all together is the well-rounded, vulnerable, and funny character of Clarissa, a spirited protagonist we’ve grown to love since we first met her in “The Tustin Chronicles”.     It's available in print and eBook formats at your favorite online bookstore.            

Honeymoon in Savannah: A Detective Santy Mystery

Hi to all of our dear readers.  To those of your who've been kind enough to read our previous Detective Santy mysteries, we are finishing up a new murder/mystery with Clarissa Santy continuing as our protagonist.  She has been a fun character to create.  People ask us who she's based upon, and I'd have to say that she's based on me and my nieces.  In the first two books, "The Tustin Chronicles" and "The Murder at the Abbey", we've left poor Clarissa having a spiritual crisis at the ending of both books.  She deserves better.

So, in our new book, she is married and on her honeymoon.  She and her new husband are big fans of "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil," so they decide to make a pilgrimage to Savannah to see the sights mentioned in the book.  While they are there, a famous chef is murdered: a chef who happens to be Clarissa's cousin, so it's personal.  She is invited by the local police to help find the killer.

The book is part murder/mystery; part travelogue, and part romance novel; so, we hope you will enjoy reading it as much as we've enjoyed writing it.  We've been lucky enough to visit Savannah about five times, so we've included some of our favorite places and experiences in this book.

It will be coming out in the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

Thanks again and happy travels from the husband and wife writing team, Lewis Hathaway.
