Adelaide Mills

Adelaide Mills writes cozy mysteries that serve up clever puzzles, quirky characters, and just enough danger to keep you flipping pages long past bedtime. Her stories are filled with tight-knit communities, nosy neighbours, unexpected suspects, and heroines who can’t help tripping over clues while trying to keep their lives in order.

Expect twisty whodunnits with a dash of humour, a sprinkle of romance, and plenty of coffee (or tea) to fuel the sleuthing. Adelaide’s amateur detectives are everyday women—librarians, bakers, bookshop owners—who stumble into mysteries and prove they’re braver (and nosier) than anyone expected. When she’s not plotting her next small-town scandal, Adelaide is devouring true-crime podcasts, alphabetizing her bookshelves, and pretending she’d totally survive in a murder mystery herself.
