Jon Spoelstra’s Old Guys Murder Mystery series kicked off in 2022 with Who’s Killing All My Old Girlfriends? and has grown quickly, with eleven books published through 2026. The premise is simple and fun: retired buddies Charlie North and Ben Tucker would rather be playing golf, but dead bodies keep showing up in their orbit. With the help of P.I. Reggie Parker, they end up investigating cases that range from mysterious deaths at wineries to murders on cruise ships.

Each book in the series has a “Who’s Killing…” title that hints at the setting or victim pool for that particular mystery. Spoelstra brings the same breezy, conversational tone from his business writing career to these novels. The books are quick reads with plenty of humor, and they have found an audience among readers who appreciate cozy mysteries with older protagonists who have seen enough of life to be both jaded and curious.
