Fifty-one years ago, Vivian Delecroix drowned in Huckleberry Grove Park—now, history has repeated itself, and I intend to find out why.
I’m Lydia Bellweather, small-town journalist, amateur sleuth, and a woman who just wanted to enjoy the holiday season with a cup of cocoa—not get tangled up in a decades-old murder.
Charlotte Winslow came to town under the pretense of writing a glowing magazine feature on the prestigious Delecroix family, but from the moment she arrived, something felt… off.
She asked too many questions, watched people too closely, and now—she’s dead.
The police want to chalk it up to a random tragedy, but I know better.
Charlotte was onto something.
And the deeper I dig, the more I realize she uncovered a truth that someone in town would do anything to keep buried.
Armed with my notebook, a few cryptic clues, and my ever-disapproving cat, Tiger, I have to untangle a mystery that’s been buried in snow and secrecy for half a century.
But time is running out, and the killer has already struck twice.
Perfect for fans of: Small-town intrigue, quirky characters, and a cozy mystery with a
feline sidekick that adds his own brand of grumpy charm to the investigation. Perfect,
unique holiday gift!
