About the book
In the picturesque town of Alma, Missouri, Jane Barrow is renowned for her successful cleaning business and her knack for unraveling local enigmas. However, when her dear friend Tracy extends an invitation to witness the restoration of a historic bed and breakfast she recently acquired, Jane unwittingly becomes entangled in a perilous conundrum.
The tranquil ambiance of Alma is shattered when a guest at Tracy’s B & B, Victor Marshall, is discovered lifeless on the premises. Initially presumed to have succumbed to natural causes, Jane’s suspicions are aroused as further details come to light. The revelation that Tracy was drugged on the same fateful night intensifies Jane’s intuition.
Delving deeper, Jane unearths a tangled mesh of clandestine dealings involving real estate transactions, a shadowy development firm, and a formidable local dynasty. Each revelation underscores that this investigation isn’t confined to a solitary murder – it’s a narrative woven with avarice, treachery, and the pursuit of power.
Moreover, Jane is compelled to safeguard her children as they become targets due to the missteps of her ex-husband. Ensuring their safety becomes her paramount concern amidst the urgency of solving a murder mystery and fending off imminent threats to her and her children.
