"Murder Among Friends is a charming step back in time to 1931 Kansas City." -Kristie Zorn "The delightful, unstoppable Miss Markham is a must read!" -Joyce Henkins

Deloris Markham, a recent high school graduate from a small farming community, moves to Kansas City to experience the big city, but there might be more excitement than she bargained for.

Robbery, hoodlums, and murder aren't enough to stop Miss Markham. Deloris won't rest until she's solved the case, even if it involves telling fibs to the police and standing on toilets to gather information.

Kansas City might not be ready for this gorgeous gumshoe, but ready or not, here she comes!

The Miss Markham Mystery series is inspired by a true life individual-Miss Doris Markham. The real-life Doris was not a detective, but she did lead an adventurous life in Kansas City in the 1930s. Several incidents and stories from her life are woven into the fictional tales of Deloris, creating an irresistible cozy historical mystery.
