Author Bio

Jessie Crockett is the national bestselling author of Maple Mayhem and Drizzled with Death in the Sugar Grove Mystery series. As a nearly lifelong resident of the Granite State, Jessie naturally adores black flies, 98 percent humidity, killing frosts in August, and snowbanks taller than the average grandmother. When not working on her next murderous adventure, she combs the beach, designs bento lunches, and throws parties. She delights in mentoring young writers at local schools. Jessie lives with her dark and mysterious husband and exuberant children in a village so small, many other New Hampshire residents have never heard of it.
