A Magnolia Ridge Cozy Mystery

Main Street is the heart of Magnolia Ridge—until murder stains it forever.

When a heated town meeting erupts over a controversial development that threatens Magnolia Ridge’s historic charm, longtime resident Joe Appleton takes a bold stand. Hours later, he’s found dead in the Main Street fountain.

The town is quick to point fingers. The out-of-town businessman behind the failed deal is arrested almost immediately, and most folks are ready to move on. But diner owner Emma Harper isn’t so sure. Too many details don’t add up—and Joe deserves better than a rushed conclusion.

As Emma quietly starts asking questions, she uncovers financial secrets, broken promises, and motives buried beneath the town’s friendly surface. With pressure mounting from the sheriff, whispers spreading through the diner, and danger creeping closer to home, Emma must follow the truth wherever it leads—even if it puts her squarely in the killer’s sights.

Because in Magnolia Ridge, protecting the past may come at a deadly price.
