Ellen Hart Synopses: This Little Piggy Went to Murder by Ellen Hart is the first Sophie Greenway novel. It’s election year in Minnesota, and Jack Grendel is campaigning hard for the U.S. Senate. But a pair of grotesque murders threatens to derail his campaign. One is the bizarre hanging of a consultant for Grendel Shipping. The other is the shooting of Jack’s own father soon after he withdraws financial support from his son’s campaign. When food critic Sophie Greenway, a family friend, starts investigating, it begins to look like one of her oldest friends is a killer. But will she discover which one before it’s her turn to die?
For Every Evil by Ellen Hart is the second novel in the Sophie Greenway mystery series. When powerful Minneapolis art critic Hale Micklenberg is murdered, there aren’t too many mourners. A master of the bad review, Micklenberg was bad news for a lot of people. Food critic Sophie Greenway is nonetheless troubled to learn that her college-student son could be involved in the murder. But so could a host of others — including Hale Micklenberg’s artworld colleagues, various so-called friends, and the not-so-bereaved widow.
