Blending humor, heart, and suspense, the Milds deliver a story rich in character, age-positive representation, and classic detective intrigue.
Authors Rosemary and Larry Mild—an award-winning writing duo known for their mystery and thriller works—continue to fascinate readers with storytelling that is both charming and suspenseful.
The Moaning Lisa’s recognition as the November 2025 BREW Readers’ Choice Award Book of the Month reflects its strong resonance with readers and its standout contribution to contemporary mystery fiction.
