Murder on the Half Shelf (Booktown Mysteries)
Tricia Miles€"owner of Haven€t Got a Clue, the best mystery bookstore in Stoneham, New Hampshire€"once again plays amateur sleuth as she is unexpectedly reunited with a man from a chapter of her life she closed long ago€¦
Â
The town of Stoneham is a haven for bookstores, but it is sadly lacking in bed-and-breakfasts. Fortunately Pippa and Jon Comfort€s Sheer Comfort Inn is about to open, and the couple has offered some locals a free night as a trial run.
Â
But it won€t be so easy to sleep after Tricia makes two startling discoveries: Pippa€s murdered body in the backyard, and the fact that Pippa€s husband, Jon, is actually Harry Tyler, a man Tricia loved€"and believed dead€"for nearly twenty years.
Â
Though Harry is the prime suspect, Tricia doesn€t believe him capable of murder, even though he€s led a life of lies. Especially when she discovers that Pippa had a few secrets of her own€"some that may have been worth killing for.
