Cozy in the City

Because sometimes the deadliest secrets hide in plain sight on the busiest streets

Elizabeth Kerri Mahon Hosts a Panel on Cozy Mysteries Set in Urban Areas

Panelists:

Discover how to transplant the beloved cozy mystery formula into urban landscapes without losing its intimate charm. Writers will learn techniques for creating tight-knit communities within bustling cityscapes, crafting believable amateur sleuths in metropolitan settings, and maintaining cozy sensibilities despite big-city backdrops. Our panelists will share practical strategies for building neighborhood enclaves, balancing urban realism with cozy comfort levels, and using city settings as natural gathering spots for clues and community gossip. Walk away with insider secrets for ensuring your detective’s nosiness feels charming rather than implausible in the concrete jungle.
