If you like twisting, turning mysteries set in villages you’ll never want to leave (despite the dead bodies), get ready to fall in love with Jayne O’Shea.

She called off her engagement, quit the job she loved, and escaped to the Northwoods. Now she's in a quirky village full of witches and her dog just found a dead body in the backyard. Will life ever be normal again?

Family Secrets - Minutes after arriving in the quirky Wiccan village to get her grandparents’ lake house ready for sale, former detective Jayne O’Shea finds a body in the backyard. When it becomes clear the sheriff isn't going to investigate the death, Jayne knows it’s up to her to solve this murder.

Kept Secrets - Circus carnies are turning up dead and the newly hired sheriff is more concerned with ticketing tourists than catching the killer. Jayne has no choice but to step in and uncover the truth before the murderer strikes again.

Original Secrets - Grandma Lucy’s journals give Jayne a peek into Whispering Pines’ past, but as questions are answered, deeply hidden secrets are unearthed. Such as the truth behind her grandmother’s death and that there’s been a killer wandering the village for forty years.

Shawn McGuire loves creating characters and places her fans want to return to again and again. (She’s lost track of how many times readers have told her they wished they could move to Whispering Pines. Shawn does too!) She chooses topics for her mysteries she’s curious about. This not only makes research even more fun, it satisfies her desire to always be learning something.

When not writing, Shawn enjoys going on long motorcycle rides with her husband and traveling. She’s very much a homebody, though, so fills her days with reading, hiking, doing yoga, baking, watching British television mysteries, and nibbling really dark chocolate.

Shawn’s first job at age thirteen was cleaning her dad’s offices. Writing has been a passion since that time, but she’d never thought it could be a career until later in life. To this day, she wonders how she thought all those books got on the shelves at libraries and bookstores! Until she figured it out, she worked at a pizza parlor, department store, as a receptionist, fast food manager, fabric store manager, and payroll manager. The best job she ever held, aside from author, was stay-at-home mom to her two sons, a position she held for eighteen years.

She was born in San Antonio, Texas and grew up in the beautiful Mississippi River town of Winona, Minnesota. After graduating college, she moved to the Milwaukee area of Wisconsin, where she lived for more than twenty years. After ten years in Colorado, she's back in Wisconsin.

Excellent Book

I loved each book. It was hard to put it down. Most books I read are easy to figure out. Not these. I liked the characters, the circus and the Wiccan aspect. I can't wait to start Hidden Secrets. ❤️

This set contains the first three books:

Family Secrets
Kept Secrets
Original Secrets

I like the characters and some of the plots. I wish that one of the deaths had been
dealt with sooner, but I like reading the books anyway. Has violence and some implied
gore. Worth a read.

The characters were "real" and interesting. I personally would love to live somewhere like Whispering Pines. Best of all, unlike most cozy mysteries now that have a paranormal bend, Jayne remained a "regular" person and not someone who suddenly woke up to be a witch with all sorts of super powers. Her powers were deductive and honesty. Best series I've read in a long while.

Book 1. Loved loved loved it!

The author immediately draws you into the story. She has the gift of making you feel as if you were there. I liked the fact that the village isn’t your ordinary everyday run-of-the-mill village. It’s a village full of so-called ‘misfits’, people that weren’t welcome elsewhere. The book is very well written and suspenseful. Not fast-paced exactly, but fast enough. There is a surprise at the end, something I hadn’t expected. The main case gets solved, but there are a few things that are left open in the end, I guess as an opening towards book #2.

Book 2. A good book, I highly recommend it!

I loved it! A good book, well written, suspenseful; the pages turned themselves! I didn’t want to stop reading - no, scratch that - I COULDN’T stop reading. One minor thing: in the end, the solution was offered on a silver platter; a bit too easy. But, in saying that, it WAS suspenseful and it HAD a twist. So, all in all, a lovely book, definitely worth 5 stars! I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good mystery with a bit of quirkiness.

Book 3. I absolutely loved it!

There is so much going on in Jayne’s life! One very important thing: what happened to Gran? Immediately I felt drawn into the story. Immediately I was back there, in Whispering Pines, with Jayne. Well written, with a good pace and a good vibe. A bit of the paranormal, a bit of romance, a bit of mystery. Suspenseful and very surprising. Once again, I loved Jayne’s dog Meeka! The title fits the book perfectly. I highly recommend this book!

Family Secrets
Jayne returning to this small town to prepare her grandmother’s house for sale. A murdered body was not on her agenda, nor on anyone else’s. A small town, Wicca was a known thing, but they were unconcerned. She investigate , giving us a good story and a good beginning to series.
Kept Secrets
Jayne is busying solving the murders of the carnies in town, one, now there is another. The sheriff is unconcerned, so she steps up. A town of quirky people, even though the setting seems peaceful
Original Secrets
Jayne finds her grandmother’s journals that uncovers-secrets.and the town maybe small and tranquil, but seems like a killer has been living there. Too many murders since she has come back..good series

I loved it! The characters were great and I can’t wait to see what happens between Jayne and Tripp and I love the dog too. I wish whispering pine’s really existed.

Very different to anything I have read before. I like the idea of super natural mixed with murder mystery. It was an easy read but kept me interested enough to finish it. Nice the way the writer had so many different kinds of cultures that one doesn't usually read about and writes them realistitly instead of unreal. I have known a lot of people who were Pagen and like their ideas. Look forward to more of these.

surprising

Reviewed in Canada on January 7, 2024

I had this in my kindle library for ages and don’t read it a few times because someone said it had elements of the paranormal. I ended up reading it in 2 days once I started. There isn’t what I would call paranormal subjects in it, just for fortune tellers and wiccans. And what is in there is great characters a good mystery and a tiny bit of romance. Couldn’t put it down and I’m off to get the next.

Entertaining

Reviewed in France on September 23, 2021

Nice stories, however I wish the author would brush up on conditional sentences in the second novel, Kept Secrets. "if she wouldn't have been killed" is a grammatical mistake. It should be "if she hadn't been killed". It's the 3rd time I've read the same error in the first third of the book and it's all the more surprising as the books are mostly well written, without many typos. This means it's a real grammar mistake. At present I'm close to finishing the 3rd volume and the same mistake is occuring throughout the book, as there's a lot of speculation.

Oh my. I'm sure I was getting heart palpitations as I was nearing the end. I kept reading faster as I need to start reading number 4 in the series..... to say I'm addicted is an understatement.
