Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Sara M. Barton is the author of several popular cozy mystery series that often feature humor, romance, and pets, but no ghosts, witches, or psychics (It’s not that she thinks these are bad books; it’s that she’s more of a traditionalist when it comes to cozies.)

She’s the author of a new historical mystery called "The Pantomime Double-Cross", with a heroine who has lived a secret life for forty-five years, unbeknownst to family and friends.

Under the pen name of S. M. Barton, she’s written several espionage thrillers, including "The Mirrors: A Moscow Joe Cyberspy Thriller".

Once she wraps up the final chapter of her old life, Sara’s slated to begin her new life and tackle her overdue bucket list. When she’s not writing, she loves to get outside and enjoy nature, especially after hip replacement: “If my new hip were a man, I would marry him in a heartbeat for all the right reasons. He’s good to me, takes me wherever I want to go, and he’s fun to be around. Perfect qualities in a mate.”

Happy Reading!

    Nice little murder mystery set around mushrooms. If you're not into learning a lot about them, this isn't your book. Fortunately, I am. I liked reading a book with no bad language. Two things I didn’t care for; the quick rap up in catching the murderer and no clear of what Annie looks like and her age. I know Angus has blond hair and his age, but that's all. Other than that, it was a fast read. I bought the other books to read.

    My three hobbies are cooking & eating, reading mystery novels and hiking. Imagine my surprise to find a new mystery series incorporating all of these. Great story with interesting characters. The story is just as important as the mystery itself. I was especially pleased to find the recipes in the back of the book. I look forward to making both of them. How much did I like this book? I already picked up the next two books in the series!

    I wasn't sure if I was going to get into this story at the beginning. The plot drags you in with excellent character development. The story keeps you reading on.
  • Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2021
    I enjoyed reading this book and recommend it to anyone who likes reading light, cozy mysteries with a sprinkling of romance.

    Annie and Angus met through a foodie group. On one of their culinary outings while walking their dogs they discover a body. A mystery with twists an turns.

    It took me the first book to really warm up to Angus and Annie but now I'm vested. On to the next book. I don't like Dry already! I'm up on my mushrooms now. Good education. I like the detective.
