What to expect
I used to just write murder mysteries. Now I investigate them…
Crime writer turned amateur sleuth, Jen, has taken over the running of the local bookstore in her hometown of Riddleton.
But balancing the books at Ravenous Readers is nothing compared to meeting the deadline for her new novel.
However, dodging phone calls from her editor takes a back seat when the local police chief dies in a suspected poisoning. To solve the murder, Jen must dust off her detective hat once more.
With everyone in town seemingly a suspect, and evidence planted to incriminate local police officer and close friend Eric, Jen is working against the clock. Can she find the killer and beat her own writer’s block before it’s too late?
Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Lauren Elliott and Ellery Adams, this is an absolutely gripping and addictive bookish cozy mystery that will have you turning the pages late into the night.
