Fowl Play by Carla Howatt and Monique MacDonald published in March 2024.

The original concept for the book was a psychological thriller. Maddy started as a much more serious character and the crimes were much more heinous. But we quickly realized that the idea of a woman who bought and sold the contents of storage units was prime for all sorts of shenanigans and we changed direction.
