A Tolling to Die For
(2025)(The third book in the Old Bell Inn Cozy Murder Mystery series)
A novel by Khloe Kass
Some things don’t need to be shouted…They just need to be spoken aloud.
When the ancient bell of St. Aelred’s Church tolls at midnight for the first time in over a hundred years, the sleepy Cotswold village of Hazelmead wakes to horror—local historian Arthur Penrose lies dead beneath the tower.
Innkeeper and amateur sleuth Emma Sharpe only came to help plan the Harvest Tea and Festival, but the mystery pulls her deep into Hazelmead’s shadowed past—a vanished priest, wartime thefts, and a secret sealed behind stone.
With her clever terrier Cooper, and the ever-gruff but charming DI James Harris, Emma must untangle a web of lies stretching back to the Great War.
But someone in the village will do anything to keep the truth buried—because when the bell tolls again, it won’t be for the dead alone.
A haunting, witty, and heart-felt cozy mystery where history whispers, friendship endures, and justice refuses to stay silent.
