Order of Do-It-Yourself Mysteries Books

The Do-It-Yourself Mysteries series features cozy mystery novels penned by Norwegian writer Jennie Bentley (who also writes as Jenna Bennett). At the heart of these stories is Avery Baker, a former textile designer from New York who has traded city life for small-town Maine after inheriting her aunt's old cottage. What starts as a fresh beginning in home renovation quickly becomes complicated when Avery discovers that her new profession has an unexpected side effect: stumbling upon dead bodies during her projects, which inevitably draws her into amateur detective work.

Author Jennie Bentley launched this captivating series in 2008 with Fatal Fixer-Upper, marking her debut as a novelist. The series continues to this day, with each installment building upon the last.
