Caught Redheaded
(2025)(The seventh book in the Annie's Museum of Mysteries series)
A novel by Jan Fields
Museum curator Scarlett McCormick must unmask a killer when she is framed for an argumentative playwright’s murder.
While Scarlett McCormick is up to the hilt in preparations for a new exhibit at the Reed Museum of Art and Archaeology in Crescent Harbor, California, she’s asked to introduce an upcoming production at the Greek to Me Playhouse. Scarlett agrees, but as she reads the play, she’s appalled at the glaring historical inaccuracies. Scarlett pleads her case to Reginald Wylde, the playwright, but he refuses to revise the script, and their discussion becomes heated. Later that night, Reginald is found murdered in his home . . . and a redhead who looks like Scarlett is witnessed fleeing the scene.
Scarlett is horrified to learn that she’s the prime suspect. As she and her friends search for the real killer, they realize they have their work cut out for them, especially when it becomes clear someone is determined to frame Scarlett for murder. Will she find the person who stabbed her in the back before it’s too late?
This clever whodunit from Annie’s Museum of Mysteries series is a must-read for fans of cozy mysteries, history, light romance, and female friendships.
