What if the one moment you’ve waited for your whole life… was interrupted by a murder?

Gabby Keats and Detective Brandon Hale have finally set the date—Maplewood’s winter wedding of the season is on! But when a body turns up bearing the signature of the infamous Clockwork Killer, their plans begin to unravel like a dropped ball of yarn in the library stacks.

There’s just one problem: Brandon already put the Clockwork Killer behind bars years ago. This was the case that cost him his peace of mind—and drove him to the quiet streets of Maplewood. As a second victim surfaces, questions swirl like snowflakes. Is this a copycat killer? Or has Brandon’s past followed him into his future?

With the wedding on hold and tensions running high, Gabby dives headfirst into the mystery with the help of her trusty goldendoodle, Agatha—equal parts sleuth and scene-stealer. Together, they team up with crossover allies Dexter and Harper from The Cozy Corner Series and none other than Jenny Murder, the podcasting queen of true crime. As suspects multiply and secrets unravel, the cozy charm of Maplewood is put to the test.

Packed with small-town intrigue, sleuthing pets, found family, true crime crossovers, and just enough wedding chaos to keep things festive, Winter Wedding Murder proves that even in the coziest towns, cold cases never stay buried for long.
