New York Times bestselling author Lorna Barrett
presents another page-turning chapter in her Booktown
Mystery series. This time mystery bookshop owner Tricia
Miles is about to find out murder is no walk in the park…
While out walking Sarge, her sister’s bichon frise, Tricia
is led by the agitated dog to a man lying in a gazebo. She’s
startled when she recognizes Pete Renquist, the president of
the Stoneham Historical Society, who appears to be suffering
from cardiac arrest. When Pete later dies in the hospital,
the discovery of a suspicious bruise and a puncture mark on
his arm suggests he may have been murdered.
Haunted by Pete’s enigmatic last words to her, Tricia begins
to consider who had a motive to kill her friend. Did Pete
take his flirting too far, only to have a jealous husband
teach him a lesson? Or did he discover something in the
town’s historical records that his killer wanted kept
secret? Tricia is determined to get to the bottom of things
before someone else becomes history…
