Emily’s sleuthing pays off, revealing disturbing information about the victim’s past. Is it the reason behind his murder? With the help of her family and friends, Emily sets out to uncover secrets kept too long and puts herself and the people she loves in the killer’s path. Too late she realizes Detective Lewis was right. Her snoopiness proves to be a deadly idea.

About the author: Lesley is the author of a number of mystery series and mysteries as well as short stories, including the Eve Apple Mysteries, the Big Lake Murder Mysteries and the Laura Murphy Mysteries. All feature sassy, snoopy protagonists and a few characters drawn from her peculiar family. Her quirky sense of human she attributes to the influence of her two literary muses, a ghost who inhabits her cottage in Upstate New York and a coyote roaming the fields across from the canal she lives on in the winters in rural Florida. “Setting makes the murder,” says Lesley. Visit her on her website www.lesleyadiehl.com.
