As far as I know, there are only 3 in the Nanette Hayes mystery series by Charlottle Carter and I've just finished the third Drumsticks. Nanette is an African American street saxophonist in New York City. She also had studied French. The mysteries usually involve people she knows, her family. Her mom sends her to Paris (Nanette has studied French) to help her aunt in the 2nd book. She has a best friend who is a stripper. There are a lot of references to jazz songs and different parts of New York City. And Nan picks up boyfriends and lovers (a few okay but mostly bad eggs). They are enjoyable mysteries, and Nan suffers the perils of most amateur sleuths, sparring with the police, being roughed up by Bad Guys.
