Meadowlark Creek Mysteries

Welcome to Meadowlark Creek — a charming small town where neighbors know one another by name, gossip travels faster than the morning coffee pours, curious pets seem to uncover clues at the worst possible moments, and murder has a surprising way of disrupting otherwise peaceful days.

After years spent writing romantic suspense filled with danger, protectors, and emotional healing, Maryann Jordan finally followed a longtime dream of creating a cozy mystery series overflowing with warmth, found family, quirky characters, small-town charm, and mysteries readers can savor alongside a warm cup of tea.

At the heart of the Meadowlark Creek Mysteries is Ms. June Higgins, a retired librarian who spent fifty years surrounded by books, stories, and the people of Meadowlark Creek. Wise, compassionate, observant, and quietly determined, Ms. June has a gift for seeing what others miss. Living beside her in a beautiful Victorian home is her granddaughter, Sara Lee, a local high school teacher whose practical nature is often tested by her grandmother’s growing talent for stumbling directly into murder investigations.

Together—with the help of loyal friends, a close-knit community, endless tea-time clue discussions, and two unforgettable pets, Pippi and Mister Smee—they uncover secrets hidden beneath Meadowlark Creek’s picture-perfect surface.

Filled with amateur sleuths, family bonds, found family, small-town charm, humor, friendship, gentle romance, quirky characters, cozy coffee shops, hidden secrets, and page-turning mysteries, the Meadowlark Creek Mysteries blend heartwarming community life with suspenseful whodunits readers can curl up and escape into.
