Inspector Green is back! The first five books have just been reissued, with updated covers and larger format.
Wreck Bay, Amanda Doucette's fifth adventure set on Vancouver Island, is now at the printers and due out in January 2023.

Amanda Doucette pursues the connection between a reclusive artist and the wealthy surfer who turned up dead on a remote island in Vancouver Island’s Pacific Rim in a wilderness-infused mystery perfect for fans of Jane Harper or Louise Penny.
"Fradkin, a retired psychologist, creates well-drawn, complex characters, and she knows how to build tension and drama that hold readers to the end."
Starred review, Publishers Weekly
"Ottawa-based author Barbara Fradkin is one of today's finest mystery writers. Her Inspector Green mysteries linger long after the story is told."
Hamilton Spectator
"Fradkin's forte is the emotional cost of crime."
Ottawa Citizen
