I’m an absolute sucker for clever “punny” titles and Mrs. Oliver’s Twist, the newest Quinn McFarland Mystery by Saralynn Richard had me at hello. More than that, her recent post on “Interiority” (The Stiletto Gang) got me to thinking. Here’s a link if you’d like to check it out as well. And now, onto Mrs. Oliver’s Twist.

Title: Mrs. Oliver’s Twist: A Quinn McFarland Mystery

About the book: IF YOU CAN’T TRUST YOUR FAVORITE TEACHER, WHOM CAN YOU TRUST?

Quinn McFarland is on the verge of living her best life. With exciting career plans, a loving husband, and dreams of a perfect future, everything seems to be falling into place. But when she’s asked to identify the body of her beloved former teacher, Mrs. Oliver, Quinn’s world is fragmented.

The moment Quinn looks at the wrist of the deceased, she notices something chilling—a tattoo she’s seen before. But this time, the ink holds an unsettling meaning, pulling Quinn into a tangled web of mystery and deception. As she digs deeper, Quinn uncovers dark truths about her teacher’s past—secrets that lead to a brutal murder and people she knows and trusts.

Now, Quinn must navigate a treacherous path where every clue brings more danger, and the stakes are do-or-die. As the investigation spirals out of control, Quinn’s carefully constructed life begins to unravel. With her marriage, her family, and her future on the line, Quinn must confront the frightening reality that the killer may be closer than she ever imagined—and time is running out.
