Speak Ill of the Dead by Mary Jane Maffini Pdf

Camilla MacPhee is the black sheep of her perfect, blonde family, although she runs a law office specializing in Justice for Victims of violent crimes. However, her uneasy association with the world of crime takes a bizarre turn when a vicious, vindictive fashion columnist with underworld connections named Mitzi Brochu is crucified in a downtown hotel room. The problem is that Camilla’s best friend Robin was on her way to meet the victim, and has become the main suspect. Camilla sets out to vindicate her friend, but finding the real killer isn’t easy, as just about anyone among the politicians and supermodels skewered by Mitzi’s rapier wit could be said to have had ample motive. The investigation turns dangerous, as Camilla receives cryptic warnings while following a grisly killer’s trail marked by more murders of humans and felines. The cast of characters includes a sleazy rock promoter, a nosy, sherry-mad old lady, a suave but mysterious hotel manager, a grumpy Mountie, and several manipulative sisters in this seriously funny first mystery novel by Mary Jane Maffini.

You Light Up My Death by Mary Jane Maffini Pdf

You Light Up My Death is the latest in the Camilla MacPhee Mystery Series by award-winning author Mary Jane Maffini. "Maffini is a relaxed, accomplished, and wickedly funny writer." -The Montreal Gazette Ottawa lawyer and victims' advocate Camilla MacPhee has finally agreed to elope to Cape Breton with her long-time partner, Sergeant Ray Deveau. She has given her bossy sisters and her interfering office assistant Alvin Ferguson the slip, and she's on her way. High time and happy ending, you might think. Well, not exactly. For one thing, Camilla and Ray need to deliver Gussie, the odiferous dog, to Alvin's family in Sydney, and for another, Mrs. Parnell's little calico cat is also along for the 1,642-kilometre ride. Then there are all those boring trees in New Brunswick. Somewhere on the way, Ray's attitude has changed, and Camilla finds herself abandoned in Sydney with a dog and a cat but without a vehicle, luggage, wallet, or her fiancé. Ray has vanished. When Ray's brand-new car turns up an hour away with the keys still in it, and his phone is found on the street, Camilla stifles her anger and begins a desperate search. People are dying. Will Ray be one of them? Camilla must be content with the spectacular Cabot Trail, its rocky slopes, steep cliffs, and hairpin turns, plus a collection of eccentric relatives, friends, locals, and far too many oatcakes, as she plows through a storm to stop a savage killer blowing off thirty years of pent-up rage. Oh and, um, bring your rain gear.

The Busy Woman’s Guide to Murder by Mary Jane Maffini Pdf

Winner of the RT Reviewers Choice Award for Best Amateur Sleuth! Professional organizer Charlotte Adams has to clean up a mess from the past to stop a killer in the present . . . Given the number of times she’s dialed 911 in a panic, professional organizer Charlotte Adams is more than a little startled when she answers a distress call from the 911 operator herself. Mona’s calling to alert her that the “mean girls” who terrorized her in high school are back and that she wants to wring their necks. Charlotte writes off the threat as angry exaggeration—until a woman resembling one of the mean girls is killed and Mona goes into hiding. Worried that some lingering trauma from being bullied may have sent her friend over the edge, Charlotte decides she’ll have to investigate the murder to find out who’s behind it. But then another mean girl is run down, and she’s certain that someone from the past is settling old scores. Desperate to learn whether Mona is making her revenge fantasies come true or if there’s a vindictive killer on the loose, Charlotte will have to sort through all the clues to save her friend—and maybe her own life . . .
