About this series
The secret lay dormant for over half a century, forgotten and covered over by years of quiet activity in the sleepy community of Fox Island, Washington. Now that Tony and Price Shadowbrook uncovered the truth, what should they do? Say nothing and allow the lie to live on? Or speak up and risk destroying the lives of many innocent people? Fox Island is the first in a series of cozy mysteries set in little known locations in the western U.S. The series follows the summer expeditions of western author Tony Shadowbrook and his English professor wife, Price, as they travel the west in search of intrigue, surprise, and more than a little adventure.

- Copper Hill
2
In the copper hills of Jerome, Arizona, one man's death could be his fortune. Tony and Price Shadowbrook spend another summer researching and writing about a unique Western vacation spot. In the intriguing copper mining town of Jerome, the local color turns an ominous shade when Tony spots a strange traveler who carries his own tombstone in the back of his ruck. The stone is engraved with the quickly approaching date of his death. When a local elderly inventor is accused of his murder, Tony tries to get him freed from the Jerome jail. Meanwhile, wedding plans for the Shadowbrook's son Josh and Melody Mason (whom they met in Fox Island) keep everyone on edge, as conflict reaches crisis level. Copper Hill paints a compelling picture of a family in the process of dealing with circumstances that seem out of control.
- Columbia Falls
Co-authors Tony and Price Shadowbrook head for Columbia Falls, Montana, to spend the summer in the northern reaches of the scenic Flathead Valley near Glacier National Park. Their hopes for a quiet summer of writing are dashed the first day when a neighbor lady tearfully shares the mysterious circumstances surrounding her husband's death from a fall off a mountain trail. Some say he jumped. His wife claims he was pushed. The Shadowbrooks once again find themselves swept into adventure, excitement, and danger. But that isn't the only complication for the Shadowbrooks. They must also deal with the woman's son, a big fan of Tony's western novels, a young lady who seeks their assistance in launching her singing career, an unusual summer home that is a tourist attraction, and their agent, who is constantly working a new deal. All of this, combined with long-range parenting of adult children who have some surprising news, guarantee the Shadowbrooks another hectic, humorous, and sometimes hazardous summer. Meanwhile, their trust in God is strengthened, their faith is shared, and their love for each other is deepened.
