You are a proud member of Hidden Creek’s most curious secret, the Lantern & Lens Society, a discreet group devoted to unraveling the town’s long-forgotten puzzles. With access to the Society’s private archive, the Lost & Kept, you can search through old keepsakes, family ledgers, and village memorabilia that rarely see the light of day.
This month, everyday life has been disrupted. Both of Hidden Creek’s historic footbridges have been closed for safety concerns, and there may only be funding to repair one.
To save them both, you’ll need to dig into a forgotten feud, trace its origins, and uncover why the village ever needed two bridges in the first place. Hidden in the records is a story no one remembers and it’s time to bring it to light.
This cozy puzzle collection offers a mix of easy to medium challenges, including a maze, logic puzzle, fill-in-the-blank, cryptogram, and word search. Enjoy!

Making a cozy mystery puzzle-solving series is still new for me, but I’m really enjoying it. Each episode takes a few days to put together. If you’ve have fun solving them, I’d love to know, it would truly make it all feel worthwhile.
Launching Later This Month
I’m excited to share my newest book, a mindful tracing collection designed especially for Kindle Scribe. It’s meant to make creativity effortless: quiet focus, easy mark-making, and a meditative sense of calm.
Inside, you’ll find 40 balanced patterns to trace and make your own. On a Kindle Scribe, you can take it anywhere, and with a quick tap, clear a page and start again whenever you like.
