Accounting for Arson
First in the Serendipity Springs mystery series. She’s a whiz with numbers. He’s a whiz with cars. Can they find the murderer before the murderer accounts for them?
Emma thought accounting would be a nice, safe profession. Kind of boring, in fact. But then Russ’ new mechanic shop went up in flames and the old owner was murdered there. Russ is tops on the suspect list. Did the murderer start the fire to cover up the more serious crime? Emma and Russ team up to figure out who did the evil deed before they’re targeted.
Will Accountant Emma find any clues in Russ’ ledgers? Did the murderer leave evidence in the car he burnt?
Everyone knows everyone else in Serendipity Springs. Did the murderer sit down next to Emma in the Diner? Does he shop at the local grocers?

How can Emma say, “No” to a down-on-her-luck young woman when Emma found the woman’s cousin, employer and benefactor dead, face down in a foundation hole at his construction site? Can Emma and Russ find the killer before they’re buried along with the leaking storage tanks at the site?
Emma must find out what the list of names and numbers mean that the woman gives her.
Is the killer on the list? Or, as the police chief seems to think, is it everyone’s good friend Sammy?
Find out in Accounting for Bribery.
It’s amazing how many types of crime there are. And in order to commit most of them, people spend money. Even in little towns like Serendipity Springs. And that’s where the accounting comes in. You know the old saying, “Follow the Money?” That’s what accountants do. It’s how number crunchers solve mysteries. Accountants are amazing detectives.
Open any ledger and we’ll find a starting point. Sometimes the starting point is actually in the middle, but that doesn’t matter. The middle leads to one end or another, and that leads to a trail. We follow that trail – and there’s always a trail – and come up with answers. Or criminals.
Pick any kind of crime and there’s a starting point with money. Arson? There’s lots of money to follow there. Bribery? Even more… What’s next?
