Murder is bad for business. It is worse for a wedding.
Summer Snow has been engaged for a year and still has not picked a date. The whole town has noticed. So, it turns out, has the stranger who sweet-talks her way into Summer Cuts on a busy Saturday, charms every woman in the room, and casually mentions that she knows Summer's fiancé.
By the next morning the stranger is on Summer's salon floor, and she is not getting up.
She came to warn Summer about the lavish new hotel outside of town. She managed three broken sentences before she collapsed. Now Sheriff Brady has a body, a theory he likes very much, and two suspects who happen to be the nicest couple in Spring Harbor.
Clearing Evan's name means getting inside the Hotel Rousseau, where the chandeliers are real and almost nothing else is. Luckily, Aunt Clara needs a venue for the Women's Society tea. Luckily, Cousin Fern has never once taken no for an answer.
Unluckily, somebody in that beautiful building is already watching. Summer comes back to the salon one afternoon to find an envelope taped to the window, her name on the front in lovely cursive. Four words inside.
Stop snooping. Or else.
A dead stranger. A fiancé under suspicion. A basement nobody wants her to see. Summer wanted a date on the calendar, not another case, and the longer this one runs the less certain she is of getting either.
Can she untangle the truth before the killer trims the guest list?
If you want to enjoy a light-hearted read, with an amateur female sleuth, head-turning hairstyles and a gripping murder mystery with a touch of romance, then you'll love Summer Snow and all the quirky characters in Spring Harbor.
