Publisher's summary

VINE VOICE: "Peggy A. Edelheit couldn't have chosen a better title." VINE VOICE: "A journey to uncover mysteries, begat more mysteries." "A gripping mystery!" "This engaging cozy mystery, ingeniously weaves layers of clever lies, laced with wit & style; grips readers from page one to a startling end." "The author has a gift for veiling characters with a subtle but lingering suspicion. I wish I could say I figured it out, but the hallmark of a great mystery is to be kept guessing until the last page, and that's what happened here." "I loved it!" "Well done!"

Not satisfied by the authorities' cut-and-dried non-answers, Samantha takes matters into her own hands under the cover of being the grieving widow who wants nothing more than to start over by opening an antique shop to solve a death, her husband’s. “So much more than your run of the mill small-town murder mystery.”

No one suspects a thing when she moves to Highlands, North Carolina, a small town in the Blue Ridge Mountains. But they're mistaken. She's really there to solve what that car crash was all about, who was involved, and who might have killed Stephen. “The story is solidly built on Sam’s own questions about her husband’s death, beginning with a letter to him and traveling a fairly entertaining journey to find the answers.”

Samantha does not know a thing about solving anything, let alone her own mystery involving her husband. She's an author. So after his suspicious death, little did she know, she would step into a minefield that soon has her reeling, as she begins to methodically peel back the layers of treachery, lies, and misleading information. “The narrative, the pacing, was all there.”

Stephen told Sam he was flying out on a business trip. What was he doing driving in Highlands where they had a vacation log home in the woods? Plus, his laptop was missing. He never parted with it. Who had stolen it? What information was on it? “Peggy Edelheit masters humorous mystery with Samantha Jamison.”

Sam quickly gets sucked into Stephen's past in a heart-pounding mystery, with three shrewd and cunning seventy-something seniors, and is cautious of, but attracted to Clay, a handsome, but highly suspicious neighbor, who owns a bookstore in town. “The mystery and thriller aspect of this book keeps the readers on their toes from the first pages to the final pages.”

But then those four are eventually added to Sam's suspect list, and that list keeps growing. With so many layers of deceit, who can Samantha really trust, especially after she discovers she's at the core of this mystery—but why? “I simply loved the way the author developed the plot which was pretty interesting by the way.”

This fast-paced read is filled with touches of thriller, suspense, and secrecy, not to mention a thick web of intrigue. Sam must unravel it if she is to solve it. “Incredibly intriguing book, with all of the clues properly placed and not revealed until the final chapter.”

“Peggy A. Edelheit has done much more than create another small-town mystery book. She has painted a picture with a diverse, and well-written cast that make it something so much more.”
