A winter festival. A deadly secret. And a friend who needs Maiden Harlow's help.

Golden Glen's Winterfest is the perfect celebration of snow, tradition, and small-town charm. For Kylie, the Harlow House Inn's shy but talented chef, it's also her chance to prove herself in the town's prestigious cooking contest.

But when someone from Kylie's past arrives with a grudge—and ends up dead—the celebration turns into a nightmare.

Suddenly, Kylie is the prime suspect, and someone is determined to make sure she takes the blame.

With her friend's reputation and future on the line, Maiden can't stand by and watch an innocent person be accused. Using her extraordinary memory and her ability to notice what others miss, she begins uncovering the secrets hidden beneath Golden Glen's cheerful winter traditions.

But this investigation hits closer to home than expected. As Maiden and David navigate family tensions, old wounds, and the challenges of building a future together, they discover that everyone has something to hide.

With more secrets revealed and another life at risk, Maiden must solve the case before the killer strikes again—and before Kylie's dreams disappear forever.

Old Scars is the ninth book in the Maiden Harlow Mysteries, a dark cozy mystery series featuring an innkeeper with an extraordinary memory, an experienced detective, slow-burn romance, beloved small-town characters, and twist-filled whodunits.
Perfect for fans of amateur sleuth mysteries, winter mysteries, small-town secrets, female detectives, and cozy mysteries with a darker edge.
