The second instalment in Tamara Berry’s award-winning cosy crime series is another page-turning murder mystery – one not to be missed by fans of Richard Osman and The Marlow Murder Club!

"A quirky story for those who enjoy funny cozies." – Library Journal

***

In the aftermath of solving their first murder, bestselling author Tess Harrow and her teenage daughter Gertrude have decided to make Winthrop their home. Their cabin is fixed up and now they're turning to the family hardware store that Tess inherited from her late grandfather 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.

Put your sleuthing hat on and dive into another unforgettable cosy murder mystery!
