Tammy Truet

Pull up a chair at the local café, grab a cinnamon roll, and let me tell you about murder most foul—served with a side of small-town charm. I'm Tammy Truet, and I write cozy mysteries where the coffee is always hot, the gossip is always fresh, and someone's always getting away with murder... until my amateur sleuths get involved.

My fascination with mysteries began during summers spent with my grandmother, who ran the town's only bookshop and somehow knew everyone's secrets before they did. She taught me that the best mysteries aren't just about whodunit—they're about the web of relationships, rivalries, and long-buried secrets that simmer beneath the surface of every seemingly peaceful community. My stories feature resourceful heroines who solve crimes between running bakeries, bookshops, or bed-and-breakfasts, proving that you don't need a badge to catch a killer—just curiosity, courage, and maybe a really good recipe for blueberry muffins.

When I'm not plotting the perfect murder (fictionally, of course!), you'll find me haunting flea markets for vintage mysteries, perfecting my grandmother's secret coffee cake recipe, or eavesdropping at the local diner for inspiration (purely for research purposes). I believe every small town has its mysteries, the best clues come from unexpected places, and justice is always sweeter when served with a slice of pie.
