Jess Mey

Price range: £5.99 through £9.99

Grace’s life is turned upside down when she finds her boss’s dead body at his desk. After being questioned by the police, Grace takes it as a sign to declare her recent move to Philadelphia a bust and move back to Florida, until her boss’s widow, Jo, shows up and offers Grace a job as her assistant.

The catch? Jo only wants assistance with one thing: solving her husband’s murder. Jo believes that the police can’t be trusted, and that two amateur millennial women will have much better luck cracking the case.

Armed with Jo’s creative “crime board” and various disguises – including a retired stripper and a pro bono housecleaner – they just might pull it off …

Hilarious, wholesome, and relatable, Grace & Jo Have Never Solved a Murder speaks to everyone who’s ever believed that they could solve a mystery.

Alex Erickson, author of the Bookstore Café mysteries

“Grace and Jo are the perfect duo, each complementing the other in a way that makes Grace & Jo Have Never Solved a Murder a rather charming read.”

Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times bestselling author

“Jess Mey has managed the amazing task of providing a credible reason for two amateur sleuths to investigate a murder. When artist Garrett Baros is found dead by his new assistant, Grace, she and Garrett’s wife Jo set out to discover his killer. Grace’s life expands as she works with Jo to investigate the suspects and their motives. This is serious fun, and it all works.”

Toni L.P. Kelner, author of the Laura Fleming mysteries

“The plot is tricky and the characters pop off the page. But when you add in Jess Mey’s themes of grief, growth, and greed, Grace and Jo solve so much more than a murder.”
