Mother's Day, muffins, and murder / by Rosett, Sara.;
As a regular volunteer at North Dawkins Elementary, Ellie would never miss the annual Mother's Day breakfast--even if she has to tolerate the likes of Gabrielle Matheson. The rivals aren't exactly sworn enemies, although Ellie still thinks there's only room for one professional organizer in their small Georgia town. But when Ellie sees Gabrielle in the hallway, she's a mess. It looks like Gabrielle's seen a ghost--or, as she explains, a dead body inside the supply closet. Before Ellie can get help the body vanishes... only to mysteriously reappear later at the school. Little is known about the victim, a secretive snoop with a nosy nature and a penchant for keeping quiet about her own past. Ellie will leave no desk unturned to protect her kids and expose the cunning criminal's identity. Because if she doesn't, the killer may chalk up another textbook case of murder...

The clairvoyants : a novel / by Brown, Karen,1960-author.;

There, she is absorbed by a budding romance, relieved by separation from an unstable sister, and disinterested in the flyers seeking information about a young woman who's disappeared--until one Indian summer afternoon when the missing woman appears beneath Martha's apartment window, wearing a down coat, her hair coated with ice."--Provided by publisher.

Suzanne, co-owner of the Cackleberry Club cafe, Kindred's favorite combination diner, craft store and bookshop, chases the murderer out of the building but loses him in the alley.

The women of the Cackleberry Club are determined to find the killer before he can add another victim to his Christmas list"--
