A Merry-Go-Round Murder: A 1920s Historical Cozy
About this ebook
It’s summertime in Gyver, and Dot Whitman, Eve’s best friend, has her hands full at the library running a children’s summer reading program. But she still has time to devote to her aging parents and her aunt Emma Powell, who suddenly shows up with her new husband, George, her daughter Flo, and her son-in-law Delmar in tow.
The family has no sooner settled into a hot, lazy summer vacation when Delmar is found dead.
The murder becomes more complicated when it brings up an old case of a mysterious man murdered in the same way at the turn of the century. Has the same murderer struck again twenty years later? If so, who will be his next victim?
Gyver County D.A. Oliver Clarke and the Grave sisters intend to find out!
The fourth book of the Grave Sisters Mysteries has the sisters dealing with ghosts, riddles, and an echo of an old children’s merry-go-round.

About the author
Writing has been Tam’s voice since the age of fourteen. She writes stories set in the past that feature sassy and sensitive women characters. Her fiction gives readers the experience of women struggling to carve out an identity for themselves during eras when their options were limited. Her stories are set mostly around the Bay Area because she adores sourdough bread, Ghirardelli chocolate, and San Francisco history.
Tam is the author of the Adele Gossling Mysteries which takes place in the early 20th century and features suffragist and epistolary expert Adele Gossling whose talent for solving crimes doesn’t sit well with her town’s conventional ideas about women and their place.
Tam is also working on a new series, the Grave Sisters Mysteries about three sisters who own a funeral home and help the county D.A. solve crimes in a 1920s small California town. The first book of the series is set to launch in 2025.
In addition, Tam writes historical fiction about women breaking loose from the social and psychological expectations of their era. She has a 4-book series set in the 1890s titled the Waxwood Series and a post-World War II short story collection available.
Although Tam left her heart in San Francisco, she lives in the Midwest because it’s cheaper. When she’s not writing, she’s devouring everything classic (books, films, art, music), concocting yummy plant-based dishes, and exploring her new riverside town.
