Perfect for you if...

You're drawn to crime procedurals with a protagonist who's still figuring out their new career and doesn't have all the answers yet.
You enjoy mysteries where small-town tourism and hidden darkness collide in unexpectedly dark ways.
You like female protagonists who combine rigorous investigative work with actual personal stakes beyond the case.

Maybe not for you if...

You need your mysteries wrapped up neatly within 300 pages; this one unfolds as a series and leaves threads for book three.
You prefer cosy mysteries with lighter tone; this one gets genuinely dark when it touches on the murders themselves.
You want a romance-forward plot; the FBI agent flirtation is subplot, not centre stage.

About this book

Prairie Nightingale, a single mom and newly licensed private investigator, has just opened her agency in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Her first client is Bernie Dubicki, an online journalist known for provocative claims, who believes a serial killer is operating in the nearby tourist destination of Door County. Bernie has identified four seemingly unrelated deaths that have gone unsuspected by others. When a college student disappears, Bernie's substantial retainer persuades Prairie to investigate further. FBI agent Foster Rosemare also believes Bernie may have uncovered something real. Prairie finds herself tackling a larger case than anticipated, drawing on her ability to notice details others miss. To solve the mystery, Prairie must uncover secrets held by strangers and explore Door County's woods, working to piece together a puzzle that spans decades.
