Fiona Fleming Cozy Mysteries

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. A Poo Poo Kind of Morning I tried not to look down the mouth of hell staring back at me from inside the glaringly pristine outer ceramic shell of the white throne, my throat catching, stomach doing half flips and a rather impressive rollover routine that would have gotten at least a 9.5 even from the Russian judges. Instead, I forced myself to smile and swallow and remind myself the elbow length yellow rubber gloves grasping the handle of the standard issue plunger were all that stood between me and Pooageddon. Suck it up, Fee. Big girl panties and adulting and all that. “At what point,” I waved the dripping plunger, wincing as droplets of yuck flew, “did I think owning a bed and breakfast was going to be glamorous and romantic?” Fiona Fleming is in so much trouble. Her recently inherited bed and breakfast might not actually be hers thanks to the underhanded misdealings of the local real estate bully. Despite her grandmother's last will and testament, Fee might me out of luck and on the street before she even gets settled. But when her new enemy floats belly up in her koi pond, she's the prime suspect in his murder! Can she uncover who the real killer is before the smoking hot new sheriff puts her behind bars instead of asking her out on a date? Dive into book one of the Fiona Fleming Cozy Mysteries, and don't miss the exciting sequels!

Chapter 395: Intruder

Yup, screaming was at the top of my to-do list, except Charlie hastily stood and waved off my inhaled intent to alert the entire household to the fact he'd broken into my apartment.

He looked suitably concerned by my reaction I held onto the shreds of decorum remaining me while he hastily spoke.

"Please, Miss-sorry, Deputy Fleming." He got points for that quick about-face correction. "I'm not here to hurt you, I swear. I have information and I couldn't deliver it out in the open."

Didn't justify lurking in the dark in my private space, but I'd cut him a wee bit of slack. The last person (prior to Pamela, that was) I'd found hiding out in my place had turned out to be a stalker and a kind of ally who had almost died trying to save me and solve the murder of a model. Mila Martin might have been in prison for her attack on Frederick Newmark, but there was enough of a feeling of familiarity to this invasion I figured I needed to up my personal security.
