A hockey legend slain. A sheriff under suspicion. A town haunted by secrets.Sheriff Cammie Farnsworth came back to Twin Ponds for peace, not scandal. But when Eli Kelley, her former flame and the town’s beloved hockey legend, is found murdered, whispers of betrayal and revenge ripple through the frozen Maine town. The evidence points uncomfortably close to Cammie herself, and the mayor seems eager to strip her of her badge.To clear her name, Cammie must unearth the grudges Eli left behind: old debts, broken hearts, and a secret that once shattered her trust. Yet in Twin Ponds, every clue is shadowed by superstition. Whispers of curses and dark omens coil through the investigation, blurring the line between fact and folklore.As danger closes in, Cammie realizes the killer isn’t just hiding behind small-town respectability—they’re using the town’s deepest fears to mask their crimes. One mistake could cost her not just her life, but the future she’s only beginning to build with Jace Northcott.Murder on Ice is book one in the Twin Ponds Mysteries, a suspenseful small-town mystery series steeped in folklore and rich with community drama.

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Mara Jacobs comes Book 1 in the Anna Dawson's Vegas mystery series.
My name is Anna Dawson, and I'm a gambler.
And like any gambler will tell you, sometimes that’s good, and sometimes...not so much. And sometimes it’s an outright problem.
I love Vegas, and I love the life I've built, but when one of my friends is murdered, and another one shot at, I know I need to take a serious look at myself. And I need to call in the big guns. Even if that means teaming up with Detective Jack Schiller, a man who's dealing with his own demons.
Right now I'm just trying to juggle protecting my friends, helping Jack while not letting him get too close, and finding a murderer. And, oh yeah, no one can learn about my gambling.
Or this will be the last hand I'm dealt.

*NOTE: The case is solved, the perpetrator caught, but there are a few threads that are continuing on through the next book and the series.
Books in the Anna Dawson series thus far:
1 - Against The Odds
2 - Against The Spread
3 - Against The Rules
4 - Against The Wall
5 - Against The Grain
