Praise for Whisky Valley:

'An intoxicating blend of suspense and melody, Whisky Valley hits all the right notes. A must-read for fans of cosy crime with a touch of mystery and a load of charm.' Joanna Jenkins, author of How to Kill a Client

'Joan Sauers masterfully intertwines intrigue, romance, dogs, and the beauty of the Australian landscape. Her vivid storytelling pulls you into a compelling world you won't be in a hurry to leave. There is a cosy quality to Whisky Valley, but it's cosy with a bite as the reader rushes toward the final dramatic showdown.' Vikki Petraitis, author of The Unbelieved

Praise for Echo Lake:

'As cosy as it is compulsive, Sauers brings the eerie beauty of winter in the Southern Highlands to life. A highly recommended, vivid read!' Jacqueline Bublitz, author of Leave the Girls Behind

'Not just a whodunnit, Echo Lake also contemplates what makes for a good life, reminds the reader of the importance of historical truth and throws in a ghost story for good measure.' Maryrose Cuskelly, author of The Cane

'Move over Miss Marple. With its indefatigable heroine, mist-shrouded setting, cast of quirky characters and as many trips to the pub as there are mysteries to solve, Echo Lake is cosy crime at its dynamic, atmospheric best - and Sauers is certainly a writer to watch.' Anna Downes, author of The Shadow House

'Full of atmosphere; the very landscape echoes both freedom and foreboding. Rose McHugh, middle-aged and newly single, is a convincing, compelling and intelligent protagonist who stumbles onto a mystery and won't let it go.' Vikki Petraitis, author of The Unbelieved
