It’s been two years since the last release in the McKinley Mysteries series, but I’m happy to announce the twelfth instalment is now available for pre-order! Announcing Exercise is Murder—completely inspired from real life. (Ha!) Well, inspired by not based on real life.

I hope my readers have as much fun reading it as I did writing it. Here’s the overview:

Getting in shape isn’t an easy walk in the park…

Running junkie Katie Carpenter takes a tumble down a ravine and ends up facedown in the Hudson River. The police conclude her death was an accident, but those who were close to Katie aren’t buying that she just tripped and fell—including her pro-athlete boyfriend. But it’s Katie’s fitness trainer and friend who hires the McKinleys to investigate.

Anything but an easy case to solve, Sean and Sara will break a sweat trying to figure out who had the most to gain from the young woman’s death. Sadly for Sean most of the evidence seems stacked against Katie’s boyfriend—a man Sean idolizes. Can he put aside being starstruck long enough to view things objectively? If Katie’s killer is going to be caught, he and Sara will need to remain flexible and it might require bending the rules a bit.

Exercise is Murder is available for pre-order in ebook and will be coming soon to paperback.
