SPRINGFIELD, OHIO — Higher Ground Books & Media is excited to announce the upcoming release of The Harder They Fall, the eleventh installment in the popular Rona Shively mystery series by author Rebecca Benston.
Scheduled for release in August 2026, The Harder They Fall continues the adventures of Rona Shively, a sharp-witted investigator whose determination to uncover the truth often places her in the middle of complicated and dangerous situations.
Known for blending mystery, humor, and realistic characters, the Rona Shively series has developed a loyal readership that appreciates its engaging plots, relatable struggles, and distinctly Gen X perspective. This installment promises another compelling case that challenges assumptions and reveals the often-unexpected consequences of human choices.
"Readers have followed Rona through ten previous mysteries, and this latest story may be one of her most personal and challenging yet," said Rebecca Benston. "The series has always been about more than solving crimes. At its heart, it's about resilience, relationships, and the complexities of human nature."
The Rona Shively series has become one of Higher Ground Books & Media's most recognized fiction collections, attracting readers who enjoy character-driven mysteries with humor, heart, and suspense.
