Lea Charles lives in Virginia, owns a rescue tuxedo cat, and writes cozy mysteries, including the Ginny Dove Cozy Mystery Series.

Ginny Dove, a military widow, runs the Paisley Apron Diner in the small town of Sweet Springs, Virginia, located amid the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains. Acting Sheriff Roosevelt Baker soon comes to depend on Ginny’s sleuthing smarts and practical ideas to ferret out the right clues. When not operating the town diner and playing amateur sleuth, Ginny raises her rambunctious seven-year-old son Boone and begins her promising romance with Roosevelt. Mystery fans of Nevada Barr as well as Jim and Joyce Laverne will enjoy the humor, setting, and compassion found in the Ginny Dove Cozy Mystery Series.

Quotes by Lea Charles (?)

“Upon arriving at the murder scene, they saw Deputy Sheriff Peewee Stubblefield pacing back and forth on the front walk. He stopped and smirked as Sheriff Roosevelt Baker braked the patrol car. He emitted a noise sounding more like a groan than a sigh.”

Hi Lea,
I have a very limited book budget and don't own a Kindle :-(. I can ask the librarian about ordering your book. It sounds great! The library has bought books I have asked for from major publishers but they just turned down a request to buy the first in a series of 3 cozies by J.C. Kenney, who I met at a Facebook party recently. Best of luck to you and I will also inquire about Interlibrary Loan. Fingers crossed that I can get my hands on a copy of your book.
