"Heart, soul, and a touch of mystery—plus a gelatinous cube that washes dishes. What's not to like?" - S. L. Rowland, author of Cursed Cocktails

Gally Chaparral is a highland girl with a dream: move to Lackmore, join the Bardic Guild, and get a gig at a fancy tavern. She never planned on washing dishes in a dungeon... or falling in love.

Artist/single mom/amateur sleuth Kit Morrison is earnest, nerdy, and a bit scatterbrained, but when the "weird kids" at her school need her, she's there for them. In this story, Kit confronts major drama and a bizarre theft at her school's D&D club! Starring the heroine of my geeky (though non-fantasy) cozy mystery novel A Conventional Murder.
