Love Lancaster County and a good mystery? 🔍Then the Ruby Finch Mystery Series is your next reading adventure.

In the rolling fields and hidden corners of Lancaster County, every secret has a story… and Ruby Finch has a knack for stumbling right into them.

1️⃣It all begins with Book 1: Last Will and Puzzlement—when Ruby receives her grandmother Evie’s ashes, plus a trail of puzzles only a drama loving octogenarian would dream up. Soon Ruby and her twin brother Roddy are zig zagging through Amish dry goods stores, forgotten factories, and even the Lancaster County of the 1930s. Each clue reveals a version of Evie they never saw coming… and a truth with enough zing to turn their world on its head.

🔥But the past is only the warm up act.

2️⃣In Book 2: Banking on the Truth, Ruby’s big event goes from confetti to catastrophe in record time—a guest collapses, Roddy gets arrested, and suddenly the Finch twins’ businesses are hanging by a thread. Determined to clear her brother’s name, Ruby follows a fresh batch of clues through Lancaster County’s postcard perfect charm and its not so perfect shadows—where one lie could shut down everything they’ve worked so hard to build.

From speakeasies of the past to the secrets simmering beneath Lancaster County’s peaceful surface today, the Ruby Finch Mystery Series blends heart, humor, and high stakes hijinks.

🔍Every mystery begins with a clue. And Ruby Finch and her crew are turning cracking them into their favorite accidental hobby.

2ND BOOK IN THE RUBY FINCH MYSTERY SERIES!

A brother in jail wasn’t on Ruby’s party-planning checklist.

Ruby Finch’s latest event should have launched her business to the next level. Instead, a shocking incident turns the festivities into a full‑on fiasco, leaving a guest fighting for life and twin brother Roddy in handcuffs. Not exactly the grand finale she had in mind.
Ruby knows one thing for sure—Roddy isn’t to blame. Armed with color-coded lists, alphabetized worries, and her trademark rainbow-and-unicorn positivity, she sets out to prove it before scandal ruins everything they’ve built and a trial lands her brother behind bars.

Millicent Wagner—cookie pusher, museum docent, tireless volunteer, and the twins’ self-appointed grandmother—also knows Roddy didn’t do it. And like any grandmother worth her salt—though she’d argue sugar fixes everything—she’s determined to protect her own.
With her tarot-reading confidante Liza at her side, Millicent follows a trail of clues, slicing through Lancaster County’s postcard-perfect façade and into its shadowy corners. When the evidence points squarely at the one person whose guilt would shatter the twins’ world, Millicent faces an agonizing choice: expose the truth and break their hearts, or keep the secret and let Roddy go to jail for a crime he didn’t commit.

When the truth is finally uncovered, it blindsides everyone. It was within reach all along—and not what anyone expected.
