Summertime, suicide, and secrets…
The mid-year slump is about to turn into a nosedive for Vangie Guillory’s bookstore. To keep The Mystery Book Nook firmly out of the red, she needs an influx of funds to bolster sales, but how can she make that happen with revenue at little more than a trickle?
Lucky for Vangie, the town gossip has dropped the perfect opportunity into her lap. A local attorney’s suicide has revealed a treasure trove of books, including some collectors’ editions, and the estate hires Vangie to inventory and market them. The fee for her services is just what she’s looking for, but when Vangie’s heartbreaking past and overactive imagination collide, she begins to suspect the attorney’s death might not have been by his own hand.
It's hard to know whose secrets are more dangerous: Vangie’s or the dead attorney's. But one thing is clear… no good deed goes unpunished.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
