The Seldom Murphy Mystery series by Vanessa Gray Bartal features a protagonist with the distinctive name Seldom Murphy. The three books play on the character’s first name in their titles: Seldom Goes (2020), Seldom Misses (2021), and Seldom Skips (2025).
The five-year gap between the second and third books suggests the series was put on hold before returning. The punning titles are consistent with Bartal’s lighthearted approach to mystery fiction.
