The Aurora Teagarden series by Charlaine Harris Schulz follows a librarian in the small town of Lawrenceton, Georgia, who has a knack for finding herself involved in murder cases. Real Murders (1990) introduces Aurora and her membership in a true crime club, and the series continues through eleven books ending with Sleep Like a Baby (2017).

The mysteries are on the cozy end of the spectrum, with Aurora’s personal relationships and small-town social dynamics playing as large a role as the criminal investigations. The series was also adapted into a popular Hallmark movie franchise.
