Bonfires, Backpacks, & Brawls

SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY WITH A SMIDGEN OF HOMICIDE

USA Today bestselling author Tonya Kappes brings you southern and quirky characters in her mystery series. Her stories are charged with humor, friendship, family, and life in small southern towns.

Get ready to pitch your tents and light the campfire for a wildly entertaining mystery with Bonfires, Backpacks, & Brawls, the latest in the A Camper & Criminals Cozy Mystery series. When the peaceful plunk of fishing lures at Happy Trails Campground is replaced by the startling bang of gunshots, Mae West and the Laundry Club ladies gear up for their most adventurous case yet in the heart of Daniel Boone National Forest.

Imagine stumbling upon a body in the woods-only it's not hunting season, and this isn't a deer we're talking about. This twist sends Mae and her gang on a trek through a forest thick with secrets, where every turn in the trail could be the clue they need or a dead end. The victim, a real outdoorsman with a complex web of connections to the wilderness, has left behind a trail as puzzling as a switchback path.
