GINA X. GRANT writes multi-genre fiction that leans more light than dark, blending humor, heart, and just a hint of mischief. She lives just north of Toronto, Canada, where she shares her home with Canoli, a rescued Mexican street dog who runs the place with quiet authority.

Her latest series, THE UNLIKELY MURDER CLUB, is a sharp, witty cozy mystery featuring a senior sleuth, found family, and crimes that refuse to stay neatly solved.

New to Gina’s world? Start with the FREE prequel novella, Agatha’s First Murder, available via her website.

Before She Solved Crimes, She Used to Commit Them

If you loved The Thursday Murder Club or The Marlow Murder Club, try one set in small-town America — with a reformed criminal at its center.

An Unlikely Story

An Unlikely Story is a standalone novel told in interconnected episodes. It traces Agatha Shadewell’s life from neglected teenager to skilled con artist to a woman with a Robin-Hood-style moral code.

You don’t need to read the series first.
