About this book
When a real murder happens in her luxurious B&B suite, mystery novelist Jessica Murdoch can't resist diving into the investigation—especially when the charming and methodical Detective Thorn Wilder from the Maine State Police recognizes her detective instincts as genuinely useful. As Jessica and her faithful basset hound Tracer start uncovering dark secrets lurking beneath their quaint hometown's surface, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to the enigmatic investigator who might be just as intriguing as the case itself. Perfect for readers who love fast-paced mysteries with quirky characters, unexpected twists, and the bonus of a four-legged sidekick, this first book in the Mystery, She Wrote series kicks off a delightful adventure where small-town secrets prove far more compelling than any fiction.
