 This Myrtle Clover sampler, which has several full-length cozy mysteries, contains Death at a Drop-In, A Body at Book Club, and Death Pays a Visit. These books collectively have over 170 5-star reviews. Death at a Drop-In: You’re invited to a deadly drop-in:Cosette Whitlow is a society matron…if tiny Bradley, North Carolina, has one. She kindly volunteers for all the towns charities, but isn’t nearly as kind to her own family, neighbors, and friends. In fact, Cosette is emphatically disliked by much of the town—including octogenarian Myrtle Clover. And Myrtle knows that dislike in Bradley can quickly turn deadly.No one seems surprised when Cosette’s body is discovered during a party she’s hosting—she was struck on the head with a croquet mallet. Wanting to restore order to the small town, Myrtle resolves to track down the killer—before the killer strikes again.  A Body at Book Club This is one book club meeting that doesn’t go by the book.When octogenarian sleuth Myrtle Clover discovers Naomi Pelter’s dead body during a book club meeting, the other members seem shocked. But Myrtle can read between the lines. Naomi had riled everyone up by flirting with other people’s husbands, arguing with neighbors, and generally making a nuisance of herself. Murdering troublemakers is the oldest trick in the book.The book club members seem too sweet to be killers, but Myrtle knows better than to judge books by their covers. Myrtle’s investigation into the murder will take a more novel approach than her police chief son’s by-the-book methods. Can Myrtle and her widower sidekick uncover the killer…before he writes them off for good?  Death Pays a Visit At Greener Pastures Retirement Home, leisure time can prove perilous.When psychic (and hubcap retailer) Wanda Alewine pays a late-night visit to Myrtle Clover, she urges the octogenarian sleuth to head straight to Greener Pastures Retirement Home. But Wanda doesnt want Myrtle to consider the Homes dubious amenities--she wants Myrtle to prevent a murder seen in a vision.Reluctant Myrtle investigates with sidekick Miles, who seems a lot more interested in Greener Pastures than she is. As the duo digs, they uncover more than just Sudoku and Scrabble—they discover a sinister undercurrent… with murder as its outcome.
