Maia Chance’s standalone novels include three books published between 2017 and 2026: The Trophy Wives of Alpenrose (2017), The Body Next Door (2024), and The Ravine (2026). These titles show a shift from the lighter cozy mystery tone of her series work toward more varied territory.
The standalone books give Chance room to experiment with different styles and approaches. The six-year gap between Trophy Wives and The Body Next Door suggests a period of evolution in her writing, and the more recent titles hint at darker themes and higher stakes than her fairy tale and 1920s mysteries.
