Harvest Moon Murder (2021) introduces Ellie Davis and the small town where the Half Moon Mystery series is set, launching the series during the autumn festival period that gives the book its atmosphere. Ellie’s librarian identity and her network of friends ground the series in the cozy mystery tradition, while her prophetic abilities provide the paranormal thread that separates it from standard amateur-sleuth fiction.
The series is co-written by May Stenmark and J.A. Whiting, published through Amazon’s indie platform, and aimed at readers who enjoy the warm, small-town cozy mystery format with added supernatural elements. Harvest Moon Murder is the first and currently only entry in the Half Moon Mystery series.
