Who, Me? Fog Bows, Fraud and Aphrodite by Charlotte Stuart
Who, Me? Fog Bows, Fraud and Aphrodite is a mystery set in an urban boating community in Seattle. Bryn Baczek lives on a sailboat in a small marina with her cat, Macavity, and a series of short-lived goldfish. When a neighbor she doesn’t like becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation, she reluctantly seeks evidence to prove him innocent. She ends up being threatened by the victim’s abusive boyfriend, betrayed by a close friend, and can’t resist using subterfuge to enter a secured building to search the victim’s office. Although Bryn shares what she learns with a charming detective whose manicured mustache she finds off-putting, she is one step ahead of the police in identifying the murderer . . . a step that puts her in a dangerous face-to-face confrontation.

Charlotte Stuart earned her PhD by studying how values influence behavior. That interest in communication and relationships became a theme in her work life – first as an academic, later as an organization development consultant, and now as a mystery writer. It wasn’t particularly helpful during her time as a commercial salmon fisher in Alaska, but she enjoyed those years of physical labor and being away from everything except the ocean and the captivating Alaskan scenery and wildlife. Her current passions include doing pro bono consulting for small nonprofits, writing mysteries and watching the sea life from her island cabin. She is also engaged with local writers and readers as VP of the Puget Sound chapter of Sisters in Crime.
