“Farm life is far from boring in this compelling story about a widow whose passion for her land makes her a target for murder. A cozy mystery about passion on the prairies, filled with suspense, romance, and a loving look at rural life.” — Elinor Florence, bestselling author of Bird’s Eye View and Wildwood

“Grounds for Murder pulls in the reader from the very first sentence. Daniels creates a distinct, beautiful, unapologetically Canadian prairie setting you’ll want to spend time in, while never shying away from dark corners where danger may lurk. Jeannie Wolfert-Lang navigates a world which is at the same time brand new and lovingly familiar. Her struggles in finding her footing are revelatory and highly relatable. A worthy first novel in an enjoyable new mystery series.” — Anthony Bidulka, author of the Merry Bell trilogy and Russell Quant Mystery series

“Betty Ternier Daniels’s debut mystery novel, Grounds for Murder, has it all: deftly drawn characters, compelling plot twists and turns, and a vivid, accurate account of the price rural Canadians pay to maintain their way of life.” — Gail Bowen, bestselling author of the Joanne Kilbourn Shreve mysteries

“As much women’s fiction as a crime novel, Grounds for Murder blends simmering suspense with family secrets beneath endless Saskatchewan skies. The juxtaposition of well-tended gardens with the wild landscape mirrors Jeannie’s desperate attempts to bring order out of ever-mounting chaos.” — J.E. Barnard, author of The Falls Mysteries

“Jeannie is a winning protagonist, and Daniels’s descriptions of the bucolic setting are irresistible. Outdoorsy cozy lovers will enjoy themselves.” — Publishers Weekly
