Murder by the Press
(2025)(The sixth book in the Harrington Harbor Mystery series)
A novel by Blair Barrows and Corrine Winters
A forged letter. A Gothic weekend. A death that turns performance into poison.
Tessa Langley thought hosting Harrington Harbor’s first-ever literary festival would mean bookish trivia and tea-stained brooches—not a dramatic death scene in her bookshop attic.
But when a flamboyant rare book collector is found crushed beneath a Victorian prop during a Brontë-themed escape room, Tessa’s quiet coastal town is once again center stage for a very real mystery.
As whispers of forgery swirl and a scandalous letter claiming to be from Currer Bell resurfaces, Tessa must navigate egos, ink stains, and literary ambition—before the next chapter turns deadly.
With the help of her sharp instincts, her spaniel Marlow, and a brooding editor who’s more than he seems, Tessa steps into a puzzle layered with secrets, where every page is suspect and every motive is footnoted in guilt.
In Harrington Harbor, some stories aren’t just retold—they’re weaponized.
Read on for: a suspicious manuscript with Brontë ink, an escape room that hides more than clues, and a coastal bookshop where the line between fiction and forgery won’t hold. If you love clever literary twists, seaside drama, and bookish mysteries with bite, don’t miss the next chapter in the series.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
