🌙 A New Kind of Cozy Mystery Awaits…

This is a dark cozy mystery—perfect for readers who enjoy cozies with a moodier, more suspenseful edge.


Join Elly's ARC Team For Whispers of Murder On The Cliffs

This story steps gently into what readers often call a “dark cozy mystery”—still filled with small-town charm, familiar faces, and low-gore sleuthing, but told with a touch more mood and atmosphere. The secrets run a little deeper, the tension sits a little heavier, yet the cozy heart of Sunset Cove stays right where it’s always been. And for this book, Elly also wanted to shine a light on a meaningful real-world issue woven through the plot—bringing awareness, compassion, and hope to a cause close to her heart.

Cozy, clever, and delightfully cat-curious.

Follow PI Rosalind Harper, Detective Caleb Cross, and Perry (as in, Mason) through seaside Sunset Cove and beyond in this cozy mystery series full of red herrings, found family, and twisty whodunits.

A destination wedding with a detour into murder.

Rosalind Harper boards the S.S. Solstice Serenade expecting champagne toasts—not a poisoned glass of punch and a killer on deck. Six decks. Countless red herrings. One cat determined to crack the case.

Elly Grey is a retired nonprofit director turned cozy mystery author who writes twisty seaside whodunits filled with red herrings, quirky sidekicks, and small-town secrets.

Her sleuthing sidekick? Perry, a clever Maine Coon cat with a nose for trouble and a talent for stealing scenes. In real life, Elly shares her writing chair with Leroy Selmon, her own Maine Coon, who inspires Perry’s sass and intuition.

When not plotting the next Sunset Chronicles mystery, she’s watching Perry Mason reruns, beachcombing for sea glass, or penning her next newsletter with a cup of tea and a cat by her side.
