A Story by Maisy Marple
Some stories are worth killing for…
When Millfield's beloved librarian Margaret Winters is found dead among the stacks, initial reports suggest a tragic accident. But journalist Lucy Hartwell's instincts tell her there's more to the story.
As Lucy investigates for the Millfield Gazette, she discovers the librarian had been researching local property records that could derail a lucrative development project at Windsor Point, led by the powerful Howard Prescott. With her photographer friend Jake Bennett and enthusiastic new intern Zoe Rodriguez by her side, Lucy follows a trail of clues that reveals decades of deception.
Between covering the annual Millfield Harvest Festival and fending off the affections of the charming new doctor in town, Dr. Nathan Cooper, Lucy pieces together a mystery that connects two prominent Millfield families to a suspicious death from the 1960s. When someone breaks into Lucy's apartment searching for evidence, it becomes clear that Margaret's "accident" was anything but—and the killer is still in town.
Old secrets refuse to stay buried in this delightful second installment of the Deadlines & Deadlines series. With wit, determination, and her journalist's eye for detail, Lucy must expose the truth before the killer strikes again. But in a town where appearances can be deceiving, distinguishing friend from foe might be the greatest challenge of all.
