The Trash ’n’ Treasures Mystery series by Barbara Allan follows mother-daughter antiques dealers Brandy and Vivian Borne as they solve murders in Serenity, Iowa. Ellery Queen Magazine called it “one of the funniest cozy series going.”
Barbara Allan is actually husband-and-wife team Barbara Collins and Max Allan Collins (Mystery Writers of America Grand Master). Max writes the eccentric mother Vivian while Barbara is behind the more grounded Brandy. Their Shih Tzu, Sushi, rounds out the detective team.
The books include antiques tips and recipes alongside the mysteries. Antiques Flee Market won the Romantic Times Toby Bromberg Award for Most Humorous Mystery.
