The Trailer Park Mysteries were published under the Jimmie Ruth Evans pen name, one of several used by Dean James. The five books are set in a Texas trailer park and follow a cozy mystery formula with a lighter, more humorous tone.
Starting with Flamingo Fatale (2005) and running through Leftover Dead (2008), the series puts its amateur sleuth in a close-knit community setting where everyone knows everyone else’s business, which makes both friendships and murder investigations more complicated.
