Murder, She Wrote: Snowy with a Chance of Murder
by Jessica Fletcher & Barbara Early
I really like that the characters, including Jessica, were not stagnant. There has been growth and change since the end of the show. Despite that, I had no trouble jumping at book 60. Yes, 60!! Clearly, this a popular series. Check it out!
~Bea’s Book Nook
This story is the perfect choice for when you want a comfort read that wraps around you like a cozy quilt or a hug from an old friend, and Early stepped seamlessly into this long-running series with a delightful and entertaining ‘episode’.
~Reading is My SuperPower
I think this is my favorite Murder She Wrote book yet! The thing I love most in the books is Jessica’s small town sleuthing in Cabot Cove. The books with travel are fun, but the Cabot Cove books are particular favorites of mine.
~View from the Birdhouse
My rating for Snowy with a Chance of Murder by Jessica Fletcher and Barbara Early is five stars. I love how television show fans can still enjoy Jessica Fletcher through these books. New fans for this character can start reading this series from any book and not get too confused.
~Baroness’ Book Trove
I highly recommend Murder She Wrote: Snowy with a Chance of Murder for its page-turning plot, wonderful characters, cozy setting, and puzzling mystery! 5 huge stars!
~Christy’s Cozy Corners
MURDER, SHE WROTE: SNOWY WITH A CHANCE OF MURDER brings the warmth of good friends and a great mystery to a wintry Maine, in a great addition to this long-running series.
~Cozy Up With Kathy
All in all, this is a great book, and having this be the first in the series I have read, I can say it is very easy to start here and know what is happening.
~Storied Conversation
Despite my issues with Jessica’s actions, the mystery is still well written and enjoyable. Visiting Seth, Mort, and the Cabot Cove gang is always a treat. The Bologna Boy subplot about a shoplifter was fun too. 3 stars.
~Diane Reviews Books
4 stars!
Fun addition to this long-running, much-enjoyed cozy mystery series.
~Boy’s Mom Reads!
This series never disappoints, even with different authors. Jessica Fletcher is the perfect sleuth and someone everyone can cheer for. I’m looking forward to the next one in the series.
~Socrates’ Book Reviews
This was the first Murder She Wrote Mystery I have read in many years. My husband is not a reader but reads books in this series. I will definitely tell my husband he needs to read this one!

In a nod to Rear Window, this newest entry in the USA Today bestselling Murder, She Wrote series finds Jessica Fletcher coping with an injury that leaves her homebound—and a murder just outside her window!
Jessica Fletcher has taken a nasty spill on the ice, leaving her in a wheelchair for several weeks. She tries to work on her latest manuscript but finds herself distracted by a new neighbor moving in across the street. There’s good reason for her to be distracted, because soon after unpacking his sparse belongings, Mr. Rymer is out in the front yard, building somewhat risqué (read: naked) snow sculptures.
While Cabot Cove debates whether the sculptures are a protected form of art or a public display of lewdness, someone starts destroying them at night. Rymer doesn’t seem upset. He just makes new ones. No need to get the police involved over a little snow, he says. Especially when there’s plenty more of it and a blizzard in the forecast.
The morning after the storm, Jessica looks out the window to see a new sculpture across the street—and the body of Mr. Rymer half-buried in the snow. Can Jessica catch a cold-blooded killer from her chair by the window?
About the Authors
Barbara Early earned an engineering degree, but after four years of doing nothing but math, developed a sudden allergy to the subject and decided to choose another occupation.
Before she settled on murdering fictional people, she was a secretary, a schoolteacher, a pastor’s wife, and an amateur puppeteer. She lives in Western New York State (Go Bills!), where she enjoys cooking, crafts, classic movies and campy seventies television, board games, and spending time with her granddaughters.
Before teaming up with Jessica Fletcher, she previously wrote the Vintage Toyshop Mystery series and the Bridal Bouquet Shop Mysteries (as Beverly Allen).
