“Medical is needed to attend to the witnesses…” Hold on is a Cozy Murder Mystery. Friendly, but not syrupy sweet. You'll love getting to know Margret. She always has a book to read and maybe a few Skittles to munch on while she stumbles into the adventure. She is no Ms. Marple, but somehow she helps to solve the crime; often without even knowing she did.
Sheltered Margret Malone is an avid reader who puts down her novel for real life adventure. A would-be novelist, she craves experiences to jump-start her writing career.
Margret arrives in Yosemite National Park amid chaos on the same day a female Park Ranger goes missing. Armed with more gear than knowledge, she embarks on a challenging hike that has her crossing paths with more than just nature.
This adventure turns murder mystery before you can catch your breath. Enjoy detailed descriptions by author Nancy Cupp, as she draws on her memories as a Yosemite National Park volunteer.
Nancy is a lover of the outdoors, animals and books. Her perfect day starts at four AM with a cup of coffee and a good book. By five she would be plunking away at a new novel.
A truck driver, Nancy spent many miles on the road writing books in her head. Trucking didn't allow much time for actually writing them down, however, so she didn't really start to write until she retired.
The Margret Malone series was inspired by time spent at Yosemite National Park as a volunteer. Margret is the kind of character that is in the book so the story can happen. She really isn't what the book is about, she is there to tie the story together.
"One of my favorite characters so far is Blaize, an African-American woman who is an exceptional woman, but doesn't quite know it yet. I plan to make her the main character of the third book in the Margret Malone series."
Nancy is starting a new series for teens. The series will feature a teen, Anna, from New York City with an addicted mother. Anna is dumped off in the midwest to live with her nearly blind uncle who used to be a horse trainer.
