Sparky is the 1930s most unlikely pre-teen amateur sleuth tackling crime in gritty, Prohibition-era downtown Los Angeles, glamorous Hollywood, and beyond. She’s a bossy, smart-mouthed street kid living in a movie star’s mansion. She’s buddies with mobsters. But she still has to deal with jerks at school. Sparky’s always getting into trouble, and, with the help of her friends, she’s always one step ahead of the bad guys.

Join Sparky’s crime-solving misadventures in the first three Sparky of Bunker Hill Mystery novels. These mysteries are a fun read for tweens to grown-up fans of humorous, historical cozy mystery books.

The Cold Kid Case, Book 1: It’s 1930s Los Angeles and 11-year-old, smart-mouthed street kid Sparky is a girl on the run, framed for murder in this cozy take on gritty LA noir with laugh-out-loud humor.

The Cannibal Caper, Book 2: It’s end of summer 1932 in downtown Los Angeles. A gourmet cannibal is on the loose, plus missing jewels, and tommy gun trouble! The rub: it may all be Sparky’s fault.

The Monkey Island Murder, Book 3: Movie stars, mobsters, murder! It all started with crazy monkeys in 1932 LA. Can 11-year-old Sparky find the roaming bodies before it’s too late?

This cozy mystery collection includes the bonus short mystery story, Death on the Set of Dolly Dear, where we’ll meet Sparky’s movie star guardian Tootsie LaFemme in 1920 before she became famous. We’ll discover that Hollywood’s secrets are no match for Tootsie’s intrepid sleuthing!
