Hi, there! 


I’m Irene Jorgensen. I  was that kid in class who secretly read books while the teacher was talking. A few decades later, I  realized I had some stories of her own to share — the cozier, the better.  A born-and-bred Canadian, I live in southern Ontario with my Cornish Rex cats Razzle, Annie and Shadow. Their antics frequently end up on the pages of my books. Check out my Whiskered Chronicles for some of their real life antics.

Join my newsletter and receive Suspect Guests and an Unwelcome Request — an Olivia, GG and Annie cozy mystery.

A persistent grandmother. A twenty-five-year-old death. And a shaky clue to prove it was murder. 


When Olivia’s grandmother GG stumbles upon evidence that the death of a friend 25 years ago was no accident, she begs Olivia for help to find the killer. 


The problem? Proving it was murder with only a shaky clue.


To catch a killer, GG and Olivia form an ingenious plan. 


GG will host a dinner party featuring Madame Mystic, a.k.a. Olivia. A mystic charade of visions and interpretations related to the murder will surely shake things up. 


Will one of the guests tip their hand?


But when GG gets carried away, fake psychic Olivia finds herself at a loss. And if she can’t figure out how to channel the dead…


…someone will get away with murder. 


Does her nutty best friend have one card left to play?


You’ll love this cozy mystery because almost everyone loves justice, even if it’s 25 years late.

This series about an amateur sleuth incognito as a fake psychic (a good-hearted one who’s got her reasons) is a mishmash of some of my favourite things…


…Justice…Friendship…Personality profiling…a dash of romance…The television show, Psych.


I know random stuff, but it seems to work. Hope you think so, too.


The bottom line–this series is about how one woman betrayed eight friends and how she redeems herself. Oddly, it always involves solving a murder.

What a USA best selling author said...

...Murder Calls at Shadow Falls

“Murder Calls at Shadow Falls is an absolute delight! I loved everything about it; the heroine searching for redemption, a second chance friendship, amateur sleuth in disguise and murderous lemon tarts. Five stars for this sweet and deadly treat!”  Molly O'Keefe

What readers are saying about the Olivia Twist Series...

"Quite a few laugh out loud moments."


"Jorgensen's writing style is engaging, with well-paced scenes that keep readers guessing and turning the pages. The mix of investigative work and Olivia's unique skills as a "charlatan" psychic adds an intriguing twist to the traditional cozy mystery formula."


I love all the main characters (especially Annie and her coupons).


Olivia is my favorite character. I love how she is working towards redemption from her past misdeeds and even though her friends are no longer her friends she is still determined to make things right. This series is charming and lighthearted. 


(Okay, no one actually said anything about  a cat wanting to read it.)
