A STRONG FEMALE PROTAGONIST IN A SMALL MOUNTAIN TOWN

Phoebe Korneal

When GaGa and Judilee created me, they had one thing in mind: A relentless sheriff's deputy, great friends, law first and order a close second, along with a light-hearted mystery.​

The setting is Oresville, in Green County, Colorado. Population of nearly 2,000 most of the year until

the tourists arrive and it quadruples.

​

Come along for the "read!" I think you'll enjoy The Last Hurrah, The Last Slide, and The Last Line as much as I enjoy solving a mystery! 

THE CO-AUTHORS

GAGA GABARDI

I'm a septuagenarian livin' large in the Rockies. I discovered writing with Judilee is a daily joy. First step for us, a cozy mystery trilogy...next step, if we live long enough...? LOL

Co-authoring with GaGa is fantastic and we'll write until we can't! 

​

I hope you enjoy our stories as much as we enjoy writing them.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING

Coffee and Book
"What a fabulous debut novel from Ms. Gabardi and Ms. Butler, authors extraordinaire. Their turn of phrase ability made me feel like a citizen of Oresville and friends of the colorful characters. Can't wait for the sequel!"
