Publisher's summary

Josie Posey, a mature yet ever-feisty big city crime reporter turned crime solver, has officially retired to a touristy small town in middle America where she and her posse of friends "unofficially" have their noses in everything.

Josie loves her new life, but a weekly game of mahjong isn't enough: she itches to get back into the action. She gets more than she bargained for when The Village Gazette asks her to interview their local celebrity, a former NYC prima ballerina.

Then, the ballerina's husband is discovered dead—face down in the couple's beloved field of flowers. Now, Josie has the inside track on solving the murder, with her quirky Mahjong Mavens as useful sidekicks.

And if a killer in their midst wasn't enough distraction, Josie's matchmaking friends are pushing her to date again—particularly, to pursue an attraction toward a certain local blacksmith, with whom sparks fly.

Jealousy, ambition and dance

A cozy mystery for sure.
I'm looking forward to more journalism and crime solving from Josey Posey.

So fun and funny!

I was sad to see a one star review on a brand new book! I hope you change it.
This book was a breath of fresh air.
I loved all of the folksy sage advice and the gossipy women.
I hope the A Josie Posey Mystery means there will be more adventures to come!
Don’t be discouraged by that one star. It didn’t dissuade me.
Now I need to learn to play Mahjong!

not for me

I bought this book by mistake but decided to give it a chance. I didn't like it and returned it after a few chapters into the book. I found the characters stereotypical and unrealistic. I just couldn't get into this book. I returned it.
