Popular Book Series Set in Washington State
I knew there were a couple of books set in Washington State. I'm a huge fan of Patricia Briggs, whose Mercy Thompson series is set in the Tri-Cities. I was even fortunate to meet her in 2021 at a Yakima book signing.
My brother is obsessed with the J.P. Beaumont series by J.A. Jance, which centers around a homicide detective in Seattle.
I had no idea how many different books and stories there are that take place in my home state until I visited a local author fair a few months back.
