Brandt, Ashley

Ashley Brandt writes the Fairhope Murder Mystery Series which started in May 2026 and is set in Alabama. Berlynn Wallace has made a quiet life for herself in Fairhope, Alabama — a charming coastal town where she spends her days surrounded by books, her cat Mr. Whipley, and the company of her best friend Vaughn, a sharp-tongued fashion designer with exquisite taste. The fact that Vaughn has been dead for two years is, between them, just a detail. When a body turns up near her driveway, Berlynn finds herself pulling at threads no one wants pulled — and asking questions a killer doesn't want answered.
