The Parks Pat Mysteries are fast-paced Canadian police procedurals set in Calgary’s parks, pathways, reservoirs, gardens, and natural spaces. Métis police detective Margie Patenaude—Parks Pat to her colleagues—investigates crimes in places where beauty, history, weather, and terrain can all conceal vital evidence.

Each concise mystery offers a complete case, combining careful police work, memorable Calgary settings, and glimpses of Indigenous culture and community. Margie’s persistence and eye for physical detail guide her through suspicious deaths, buried secrets, missing evidence, and landscapes that never remain simple backdrops.

These quick-read mysteries are ideal when you want a satisfying police procedural without committing to a full-length novel. Start with Out with the Sunset and take a walk through Calgary with Parks Pat.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is another well-written, briskly-paced mystery featuring great characters, lots of interesting glimpses into Canada’s Indigenous culture, and a satisfying resolution all wrapped up in delightful quick-read police procedural by an author who could make a description of drying paint sound fascinating.
