A Sheridan Hendley Mystery #1
A Sheridan Hendley Mystery #1
Synopsis
Sometimes you need to be careful what you wish for.
Pretty much settled into her new home in Appomattox with Brett and his daughter, Sheridan longs for something to keep her busy. That is, until Maddie and her new friend are framed for theft and murder. Not quite the distraction she had hoped for, but she’ll turn over every rock to prove their innocence. In the process, she learns about the powerful Buchanan family and the history of the local community. Will the truth come out before the person calling the shots takes Sheridan and Maddie out of the picture?
“Nardi brought along the characters I loved from Cold Creek (Sheridan, Brett, Maddie, and Charlie, Sheridan’s Sheltie) put them in new situations, bring new life to the characters. I also liked that Sheridan keeps in contact with former colleagues at Cold Creek College. This made Sheridan seem even more real to me.”
“A very down to earth read. A normal family that finds itself embroiled in murder and crime due to his job as detective and hers as nosy Nellie. Great characters that you could meet anywhere.”
DOGS AND MORE DOGS, ANOTHER MURDER
A Sheridan Hendley Mystery #2
Synopsis
An abandoned house, an abundance of dogs. And a dead body or two.

When the body of an elderly woman is found amidst mountains of clutter in the house, a search of the property leads to startling revelations. And another body. While Herman Stoneham’s death is deemed natural causes, his wife’s is not. Where did all the dogs come from and who’s responsible for Justine’s untimely death? Are the two connected? With dogs and murder at stake, Sheridan can't help but get involved in the investigation.
OLD FRIENDS AND NEW, ANOTHER MURDER

Synopsis
When a former colleague is implicated in his neighbor’s demise, Sheridan Hendley returns to Cold Creek to try to prove his innocence. Annoying as Max can be, she can’t imagine the quirky professor is capable of murder. Unfortunately, not everyone shares her opinion. Of course, it doesn’t help that Max threatened his neighbor in a public place soon before the man was murdered. Or that the victim’s drug shipments had a habit of turning up on Max’s doorstep. AMAZON
