Another Fine Mess

COMING APRIL 2025

The Evans women are back in this unputdownable, crackling, rollicking mystery of humor, heart, and horror.

"Smart, at times devastating, and just as funny as it is dark, Another Fine Mess is Lindy Ryan's unputdownable follow up to Bless Your Heart. Balancing grief and duty, monsters and men, the Evans women are characters to sink your teeth into."
–Katrina Monroe, author of Through the Midnight Door
