Perfect for you if...

You enjoy cosy mysteries with genuine stakes that go beyond gentle puzzle-solving.
You like protagonists who stumble into danger through circumstance rather than seeking it out.
You appreciate stories where intuition and atmosphere matter as much as clues.

Maybe not for you if...

You want gore or graphic violence; this stays firmly in cosy territory.
You prefer mysteries where the killer is revealed slowly through procedural detective work.
You need a protagonist who's confident and experienced rather than learning as she goes.

About this book

Jenna Ross, a young widow, inherits a beautiful historic inn and expects to manage its bookkeeping and guests. Instead, a mysterious visitor arrives with connections to an embezzlement case from a decade earlier. When a guest is found dead on the inn's property, Jenna's intuition draws her toward unexplained details, particularly a portrait of Nettie Wyndham whose presence feels unsettling. She begins following a trail of deception to uncover the truth before the killer identifies her as a threat. Determined to save the inn, Jenna races against a killer equally determined to stop her.
