Death of a Midnight Broadcaster
(2025)(A book in the WillowBrook Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Aj Provost
Violet Green is abuzz with excitement as the WillowBrook Community Garden prepares for its first-ever Children’s Railway Day—a grand event featuring miniature train rides winding through beds of blooming snapdragons and sunflowers. As the driving force behind both the garden and the train project.
When the beloved local radio host—scheduled to announce the official train opening—fails to appear, chaos ensues. Within hours, his body is found in the conductor’s hut, throwing the joyful day into shadow. As rumors run wild, Violet’s detective instincts kick in.
The suspect list grows as the crew uncovers secrets: a fellow garden volunteer with a grudge over lost funding, a thwarted train operator with dreams of grandeur, and a rival event planner. Daisy organizes a "mystery tour" book event for suspects, while Lily’s stakeout delivers hilarious mishaps—she accidentally reroutes the model train into the refreshment tent, causing both mayhem and mirth.
