And now there are two with a third coming. The Art Critic's Last Forgery joins The Handyman's Last Bite in the Bay View Harbor Mystery Series. The bakery Gypsy Lee and her cousin Linda run keeps getting linked to dead guys. That's a recipe for trouble and low sales. The Judges Last Context takes us to a costume parade – and trouble for one of the judges.

4.6 stars from 350+ #ibooks ratings. "Ms. Orr builds her characters' personalities and intertwines their lives while she’s building a great mystery. I plan on reading the rest of this series." books.apple.com/us/book/firs… #JerseyShore #freebooks
3/10/25 review
I love the series and all the characters! They are fun, nicely fleshed out, the stories are gripping and not cheesy at all. The writing is excellent and draws you into the story. Perfect cozy reading.
After she messes of her ankle trying to avoid a deer on the highway, Jolie’s appraising houses, feeding a pet skunk & looking for a runaway teenager. She also has her eye out for whoever put the dead hospital budget cutter in her path #cozymystery
