The Leigh Koslow Mystery series consists of thirteen books published between 1998 and 2019. Each title follows the “Never” naming convention: Never Buried, Never Sorry, Never Preach Past Noon, and so on through Never Nag Your Neighbor. The format gives the series a consistent identity and a playful tone that matches the cozy mystery genre.

The series builds Leigh’s personal life alongside the mysteries, with relationships, career changes, and family dynamics developing across the books. Fans of cozy mysteries will find the familiar elements – an amateur sleuth, a close-knit community of suspects, and clever plotting that keeps the violence off-page – delivered with humor and warmth throughout the run.
