Deadly Deception in Willow Springs
(2026)(The sixth book in the Marnie Devlin Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Sloane Foster
The hat was vintage. The poison was fresh.
Marnie Devlin came to Willow Springs for a fresh start and a vintage boutique, not a body behind a wall. But when an obnoxious auctioneer turns up dead in a hidden room of a grand Victorian manor, the sharp-eyed sixty-five-year-old finds herself consulting on murder again, armed with an encyclopedic memory for couture and a hopeless soft spot for strays.
Good thing she's got help: her quick-tongued manager Ruby, who knows everyone's business before they do, and Taco, a small dog with an outsized talent for sniffing out clues.
The suspects pile up fast; the victim's anxious niece, poised to inherit his job, and a respected local doctor swindled out of a fortune in forged art. But every lead twists, and when a key witness is brutally attacked, Marnie realizes the truth runs deeper than one death.
Someone's been hiding behind a pleasant smile. And they'll kill again to keep it that way.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
