Murder Ink

A tattoo parlor is coming to Victoria Square, and not everyone welcomes the change.When the building's owner is found electrocuted by his own table saw, Katie Bonner must sort through feuding merchants, hidden motives, and mounting suspicions to uncover a killer before murder strikes again. Adding to the chaos, a charming new chef turns up the heat at the tea shop, making life even more complicated. The immensely popular Booktown Mystery series is what put Lorraine Bartlett's pen name Lorna Barrett on the New York Times Bestseller list, but it's her talent -- whether writing as Lorna, or L.L. Bartlett, or Lorraine Bartlett -- that keeps her there. This multi-published, Agatha-nominated author pens the exciting Jeff Resnick Mysteries as well as the acclaimed Victoria Square Mystery series, and now the Tales of Telenia fantasy saga, and has many short stories and novellas to her name(s). The Victoria Square Mysteries are set in the village of McKinlay Mill, NY. Victoria Square is a small business district which is anchored by Artisans Alley and owned and operated by Katie Bonner.
