Sins Out Of School (2003)
Sins Out Of School is a fiction/mystery by Jeanne M. Dams. The main character, Dorothy Martin, is a nosy, but caring woman in her early 50s.

Killing Cassidy (2000)
2.5-3 starsI truly enjoyed having husband Alan Nesbitt along for this mystery. He and Dorothy are very good together, and they play well off of one another. And I enjoyed that the story setting took place back in Dorothy's hometown -- she was able to put a few of the last ghosts of Frank to rest,...
A Dark And Stormy Night (2011)
Don't miss this one. It was a long wait between Dorothy Martin volumes, and it was worth the wait. If you love a locked room mystery and can't see how one can be created in today's modern world, think again! Terrific cast of characters in a completely workable scenario. Read this one twice! Dorot...
