A Crafty Crime: Book 1
Hadley James is finally living the life she's always wanted: making jam and selling it at the local farmers market. When the local knitting store owner asks her to cat-sit, Hadley doesn't give it a second thought. What could go wrong? A lot, apparently. Suddenly, her simple cat-sitting job has turned into a murder investigation and life no longer seems so perfect.
Her twin brother, a deputy sheriff, is on the case but they've always done everything together and she can't help but get involved. Plus, it's much easier for Hadley to infiltrate the local knitting club than it is for her brother.
Following a trail of crafty clues, the James twins learn that their sleepy town might be harboring more darkness than they could've imagined.
A Fresh Kill: Book 2
There's nothing like the Stoneybrook farmers market in summer. Fresh flowers, organic veggies, delicious jams ... and a dead body. When an outsider turns up murdered, all of the evidence points to his rival, Stoneybrook's beloved florist.
Unable to believe a pillar of their community could be guilty of such a heinous crime, Hadley dives head-first into the investigation. Sure, she's busy looking for a new house, running her business, and dealing with her ex--who's back in town--but Hadley is determined to find the truth before the wrong man goes to jail.
A Sweet Death: Book 3
When a local teen goes missing, the town of Stoneybrook fears the worst.
Hadley is sure Miranda's disappearance has nothing to do with the drug dealer who was found dead in Cascade Ridge. The charming, candy-shop cashier is entirely too sweet to get involved in any of that. But when the clues pile up, Hadley can't help but draw parallels.
Suddenly autumn isn't feeling like the cozy season Hadley loves, and the clock is ticking faster than the leaves are falling.
Every moment counts in a missing persons case, but whom do you suspect when the victim is beloved by all?
Or is she?
Each Stoneybrook Mystery comes with two canning recipes from Food in Jars creator, Marisa McClellan! Enjoy!

Great trilogy box set
You get three murder mysteries all set in the fictional Pacific Northwest town of Stoneybrook.
Great characters, clues and writing. You’ll be hooked fast and gagging for more! -
Good
This features the first three books in this enjoyable cosy mystery series.
Book one introduces Hadley James and her twin brother Paul. Hadley makes small batch jams, Paul is a deputy in their small town sheriff’s department.
When Hadley discovers the town grouch dead, she decides to help her brother figure out the murderer.
Book two is a case of a murdered florist, and Hadley is certain that neither of the main suspects are guilty. Knowing that she can sometimes get people to talk when her brother can’t, she’s determined to help him!
Meanwhile her ex is back in town, and Hadley is house hunting!
Book three has Hadley helping her brother find a missing teen. The plot thickens though, even as time wears on, and Hadley struggles to get the town talking.
She’s without her usual sidekicks this time though, as both Suze and Paul seem to be keeping secrets from her!
Each book features a special cat character, and a slow burn romance between Hadley and an old friend (so slow burn that it has only progressed to Hadley actually noticing him by the end of book three!).
They’re typical small town mysteries, with quirky characters, a town that belongs in a drug commercial, and a few rather delicious looking recipes.
An enjoyable series for those who enjoy their mysteries cosy and quaint! -
A new favorite author
I had received the Stoneybrook series for free through one of the digital sites I subscribe to. I had never heard of this author, but the storyline was of interest. I absolutely love this series and plan to read more by this author. My all time favorite author is Maeve Binchy. I love her stories because they are set in small towns and as a reader, they made me feel like I really got to know the town and it’s people. Eryn Scott’s writing reminds me so much of Maeve Binchy and I love it. Looking forward to continuing on with this series. -
I always enjoy cozy mysteries by Eryn Scott, but what I enjoy most about the Stoneybrook series is that each book can stand alone even though they're part of a series. Scott weaves in the necessary back story better than most authors, so that the reader is kept in-the-know regardless of which book is picked up first. However, the most enjoyment, in my opinion, is to start with book 1. That way the thrill of overcome challenges, growing relationships, and personal growth are shared all the way through.

An excellent trio of books that I highly recommend if you're looking for clean cozy mysteries.
These are easy reading cozies that leave you guessing (no obvious culprits here) until the last 10% of the book. Best of all, the main characters are a brother, a sister, and her best friend--that means a focus on the mystery, friendship, and familial relationships rather than romance. This is a real winner! I look forward to reading more from this author. -
A Stoneybrook Mystery Collection by Eryn Scott is comprised of A Crafty Crime, A Fresh Kill, and A Sweet Death. Each story features Hadley and her twin brother, and a few endearing felines. Jennifer Jill Araya was wonderful bringing the books to life. She gives the characters distinguishable voices, and adds the right emotions. I really enjoyed how each book was original, and the crime solved. This is a great collection and fun listen.

I love the setting and the characters, for the most part. Good mysteries. Some surprises. Quick, fun, easy reads. The main character has an annoying disgusting habit of picking off her nail polish and dropping it wherever she is (even in peoples' homes). Totally unnecessary to read about. She tends to put herself in dangerous situations as well.

WOW
3 delightful fun filled adventures by Eryn Scott. Loved every moment. Twins fighting crime in a small mountain town each in their own way but together as only twins can. Marvellous. I want to visit this town. 💖💖💖 -
Awesomeness
This collection held my attention because of the cozy town variety of characters and suspect's. I can't wait to read book #4 and beyond is Had and Luke going to become a couple or not looking forward to finding out. -
Charming
I stumbled onto this author by chance (and Kindle knowing me well) and I couldn’t be more delighted. These books were very well written and the mysteries were well plotted. I definitely recommend, if you love cozy mysteries. -
Quick and fun reads with good characters. I enjoyed it enough to read at least one more in the series.

Cute cozy mysteries, I love Hadley and the cats.
