When world-famous, reclusive author J.W. Quicksilver chooses a local book club for his first public appearance, Whispering Bay residents can barely contain their excitement. Until he's found murdered.
But the dead man isn't J.W. Quicksilver-he's a shifty conman running a publishing scam with a mile-long trail of victims.
When the real J.W. Quicksilver becomes the prime suspect in the murder, he turns to amateur detective Lucy McGuffin for help. And then the FBI gets involved, causing the local cops to issue an ultimatum. Now, Lucy and her little rescue dog Paco have less than twenty-four hours to find the real killer before a big secret turns all their lives upside down.
Can Lucy find the killer, protect the author's identity, and finally choose between the two men in her life?
Perfect for fans of humorous cozy mysteries who love:
