About this listen

When a stranger turns up stabbed in the library aisle, clutching a photo of a long-demolished building, the quiet town of Acorn Hill is anything but.

Now, there are whispers of cover-ups, buried secrets, and a hidden treasure. Once again, Jessica—independent author, amateur sleuth, and reluctant small-town resident—is right in the middle of it.

Teaming up (again) with Michael, the town’s by-the-book cop—and her too-good-to-be-true boyfriend—Jessica finds herself dodging suspects, decoding cryptic clues, and overthinking whether Michael is in it for the long haul or about to join the long list of exes in her rearview mirror.

With danger hiding in the most unexpected corners and the past refusing to stay shelved, Jessica will need all her wits—and maybe the help of her clever cat—to solve a mystery that’s been simmering for over a decade.

In this story Jessica must untangle a twisted plot in order to find a killer. The book is just the right mix of funny moments, suspense, and emotional depth. The ending is perfect, Michael is such a dreamboat.
The narration by Lisa Lynn Sandlin was a pleasure to listen to.

A review copy of this book was sent to me by the author. All of the above opinions are my own.

A twisted plot.
