The A Top Shelf Mystery series by Lolli Powell is set in and around a bar whose owner has a knack for getting mixed up in murder cases. Starting with The Body on the Barstool (2016), the series has grown to six books that blend small-town mystery with humor and a cast of memorable regulars.
Whiskey Kills (2017), Name Your Poison (2020), Double Shot (2020), Bottoms Up (2022), and On the Rocks (2022) continue the pattern: someone turns up dead, and the bar owner finds herself investigating. The series has a light, fun tone that keeps the mysteries entertaining without getting too dark.
