Dr. & Dr. Sloan Mysteries, Winter 2024 & Spring 2025

Dr. & Dr. Sloan

Married educators Drs. Melissa and Carter Sloan are something of a celebrity couple on their campus--and for good reason. They are two professors who like to focus on the growth and wellbeing of their students. They also enjoy the privilege of working side-by-side with the love of their life. Occasionally, danger looms on campus and must be unmasked. More and more, Melissa and Carter find themselves in the position to identify the villain and right the wrongs committed against their students and friends. 

Dr & Dr Sloan--Missing Mister Magic

 A popular and beloved campus worker has disappeared, and due to a dangerous health condition, every day that passes makes the situation more life-threatening. To make matters worse, the missing worker's son can't be located. And where is the son's mysterious girlfriend? Campus Police Chief Kat Carrington and County Police Investigator Matthew Belfour are on the case, but leads are minimal and time is running out.


At the same time, a major distraction looms for the Sloans. Carter must rally support from the psych department to assist Melissa with a personal crisis that attacks her character and challenges her professional life. It seems their best support may come from a new professor-a woman with a troubling background of trauma-who could mean more to the Sloans than they ever expected. But this aid will require Melissa to humble herself and trust the people placed in her life.
