When camping, the last thing Ella Barton wants is s’more murder.
Ella and her friends volunteer to help a local youth organization for a weekend camping trip. As expected, letting her crazy friend Flo anywhere near fire and children proves to be a disastrous combination.
But something scarier lurks in the woods. Is it a stranded dinosaur?
Fleeing for safety, they come face-to-face with this … for safety, they come face-to-face with this new predator. And it’s not a reptile.
Hunkered in the caves until the danger passes, Ella stumbles upon Paleolithic paintings and a grisly discovery. The sole person capable of returning them home has been attacked. And his final words could keep the town stranded forever.
To find his killer, Ella and her trouble-making friends retrace the victim’s last movements and dig up a nearly two-decades-old unsolved death. Are they related?
To find answers, the Keystone Gators must do what they do best: trespass, blow things up, and put their noses where they don’t belong.
A laugh-out-loud mystery full of adventure, twists, coffee, and friendship.
This is book seven in the funny, quirky Traveling Town Mystery series.

This is book 7 of A Traveling Town Mystery series. This is a great cozy mystery. The storyline grabs your interest from the start and has you not wanting to put the book down. This is a very well written story by a great author. I would recommend reading.

Ella, Wink, and Flo are back at it again. Arguing, blowing things up, starting fires, and searching for bad guys, not to mention the bickering and snide remarks. I love these girls! I laughed the whole way through this installment of the series.

What a Ride!
I love a good cozy mystery, so I am surprised that I have not heard of this series before since this is the seventh installment. I have to say I’ve seen nothing quite like it, even though I am a fan of offbeat paranormal cozies and read a fair amount of zany cozies. This one is actually hard to categorize. We have time travel of an entire town to various locations and times, offbeat characters who are stranded when the town took off from their time and place, sci-fi elements with how this happened to the town, and more. I’m so thankful that the author gives a nice summary of the series concept before the novel itself starts so somebody like me, who is new to the series, can get an idea of the backstory without slowing down the actual story to do so. This is needed because the book just flat-out starts… and does not stop with the action, twists, and turns until the book ends. Quite a fantastic ride, and I will certainly be going back to check out the other books of this series. I love that this is a proper novel, not just a novella, because that gives a lot of space for the author to play with both character and plot and allows space for all the things that make a great mystery, like those beloved blind alleys and red herrings. If you love a quirky, offbeat, and really different cozy mystery, I urge you to check out this book or this series.

Ella has found that predicting what happens next in Keystone is next to impossible. On a weekend camping trip, danger threatens and the group of campers retreat into a cave. Ella discovers paintings on the wall and a body on the floor. Ella and her friends must find sneers to a murder that could doom them all. The hilarious situations in this mystery keep me reading this series and hoping for more.

In this part of the travelling town Ella and her friends are on a camping trip with some children. They are not only hunted by Harold’s pet – a saber tiger – but also find the dead body of the man responsible for the time/place jumping town and a paleolithic man.
Ella and friends need to find out more about the inventor and why he was killed. They go at it with their usual crazy ways and futuristic weapons.
The story is crazy, hilarious and fantastic in one. Entertaining, if you like crazy action.
