Cozy Case Files, A Cozy Mystery Sampler, Volume 14

Cozy Case Files 14 is a sneak-preview collection of 6 new cozy mystery novels. Released 4th Jan 2022 from Macmillan on their St. Martin's imprint, it's 180 pages and can be accessed on most ebook retailers (Amazon, Rakuten/Kobo etc) to download and read for free. This is the 14th cozy mystery sampler from St. Martin's.  It's worth noting that the ebook format has a handy interactive table of contents as well as interactive links. I've really become enamored of ebooks with interactive formats lately.

The collection includes a few chapters from each of 6 upcoming (or recently released) cozy mysteries by Korina Moss, Ellie Alexander, Gigi Pandian, Diane Kelley, Rhys Bowen (writing as a duo with daughter Clare Broyles), and Paige Shelton.  Two of the previews are for series debuts which is always exciting, and there are several veteran authors with new books in very well established series.

All of them are appealing, and all of the included mysteries are reviewed (or scheduled) on my blog.  The full mysteries themselves are all in the 4-5 star range, all are entertaining and well crafted. There are some good series releases coming up in 2022 to keep cozy mystery lovers entertained.

Definitely worth downloading the collection to test sample the upcoming books. Four stars for the collection as a whole.

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes
