The DuPage Parish Mysteries ground Gregory Ashe’s mystery writing in a specific suburban Illinois setting. Stray Fears (2020) launches the series, followed by Cascade Hunger, Lethal Control, and Second Line, all published by 2022.
The parish setting creates a natural closed community where secrets are hard to keep and crime hits especially hard. Ashe uses this framework to build mysteries that feel personal and consequential.
