Bookshop owner Charley James is plunged into a mystery involving a rare book worth killing for in this new Cozy Bookshop Mystery by award-winning and national bestselling author T.C. LoTempio. No treats but lots of tricks and murder! Retired thriller author and current bookshop owner Charley James is preparing for Halloween in her small hometown of Austin, Pennsylvania—what she isn’t prepared for is discovering the body of a woman at the local inn. Charley recognizes the stranger as a suspicious customer who popped in just to hide a rather peculiar book at her store—did she already know she was about to lose her life for it? Pursuing this mysterious case, Charley can’t seem to stay out of trouble, and no one knows this better than Detective Hottie, Ian Grant.
But Charley has a mind of her own and, together with cat Poe, sets off on another puzzle-riddled quest, unaware that the killer might be someone she knows . . . “If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to read a Hallmark Mystery movie in book format, wonder no more” (Cozy Crime Mystery). For fans of Laura Childs’s Tea Shop Mysteries, Jenn McKinlay’s Library Lover’s Mysteries, and Ellery Adams’s Secret, Book & Scone Society Novels.
