The Dora Ellison Mysteries

Justice runs deep. So does rage.

Meet Dora Ellison: a complex, justice-obsessed heroine who doesn't wait for permission to right the world’s wrongs. Haunted by childhood trauma and fueled by a quiet fury, Dora is no ordinary sleuth—she’s a fiercely driven force of nature who takes on killers, abusers, and the broken systems that protect them.

Across six riveting novels, Dora partners with whip-smart librarian Missy Winters to investigate crimes that cut to the bone—murder, corruption, medical malfeasance, and deep-rooted social rot. Each mystery pulls Dora deeper into the dark corners of her coastal hometown, where danger is personal, and justice is never clean.

If you love crime fiction that blends emotional depth, rich character arcs, and high-stakes suspense, this series delivers. Perfect for fans of Tana French, Harlan Coben, and John Sandford, these stories dive into the moral gray zones where heroes don’t always follow the rules—but they never stop fighting. Start the journey today—and discover a mystery series that hits hard and stays with you.
