The Alewives of Colmar Books in Order

After surviving the Black Death, Gritta, Appel, and Efi begin brewing ale to support themselves in medieval Colmar. When officials dismiss a neighbor’s suspicious death, the three women investigate as more bodies threaten their fragile new livelihood.

A severed hand appears in Efi’s fresh ale, threatening the reputation of Colmar’s three alewives. With powerful men opposing them and more victims discovered, Gritta, Appel, and Efi must solve the mystery before suspicion destroys their brewery.

Missing novice monks and a terrified street sweeper fuel rumors of a supernatural predator outside Colmar. The alewives hope to avoid another investigation, until a body near their canal makes the danger impossible to ignore.
