In the aftermath of solving their first murder, bestselling author Tess Harrow and her teenage daughter Gertrude have decided to stay in Winthrop permanently. Now that they've made some updates to their cabin in the woods, they're turning to the family hardware store that Tess inherited and converting it into the town's first independent bookstore. But when renovations unearth bones from a cold case and send them toppling—literally—onto Tess's head, the work comes to a grinding halt. With the whole town convinced that her grandfather was a serial killer, Tess has to call in a fellow horror author for reinforcements. Together, they'll come up with a perfect story to make all the clues fit...and solve a mystery more than thirty years in the making.
Review:
This is book 2 of the By the Book series, but first I have read (there are three). It's an interesting look at a mystery author, who leaves the chaos of big city behind to return to ancestral land, only to have ols secrets come out and bring dead bodies into her new business. It's the perfect set up for the plot, and the characters are very realtable (hello, teen age daughter drama) and chamring enough to keep you turning pages, as thebody count mounts up and more truths need to come to light. An enjoyable read, you'll like this series!
