I'm just finishing Murder at Hotel Marvelo, and I'm going to recommend it in my newsletter this week. Super cozy crime with a fun magical twist, and such nicely turned prose! Keep your eyes open for this one.

Tourmaline's home is in danger, and it seems that the solution to save it may coincide with her (potentially) villainous father's quest to find the legendary City of Nowhere. But can she trust him? Tourmaline and the City of Nowhere by Ruth Lauren is out now! โจ
