Secret Sleuth

In her new Kentucky home and far from the publishing world that once defined her, Sheila Mackey’s plan to escape to a quiet life in small-town Kentucky keeps hitting bumps in the road … and some of those bumps are dead bodies.

Sheila and her partner in crime-solving, Clara, are in for their toughest inquiry yet, when they get a request for help and take on investigating a death that’s colder than a cold case, because few in Haines Tavern, Kentucky, think it was a murder in the first place. Suicide? Accident? Murder? They’re determined to bring peace of mind to the dead woman’s friends.

At the same time, Sheila is finding it harder and harder to protect her secret past, especially from Teague O’Donnell, who’s shifting from a fellow dog-lover to possibly much more.
