About
A retired librarian. A beloved village bookshop. And a body in the reading chair.
When Harriet Holt opens Bramblewood Books on a grey Tuesday morning, she expects silence, dust, and invoices. What she finds instead is Edmund Holt - her estranged ex-husband - dead in the armchair by the fiction shelves.
In a village where everyone knows everyone and nobody tells the whole truth, Harriet is pulled into an investigation she never wanted. With the police circling, old wounds reopening, and whispers spreading from tea rooms to church steps, she begins to uncover what Edmund was really doing in Bramblewood - and who wanted him silenced before closing time.
Warm, witty, and quietly unsettling, A Death Before Closing Time is the first installment in The Bramblewood Mysteries - perfect for listeners who love clever cozy crime, layered characters, and small towns full of secrets.
