An award-winning mystery debut set in the 1980s that grips you long after the last page -- welcome to Blue River, where deadly secrets lurk beneath the surface

A mother's intuition. A town's corruption. A killer still at large.

Mabel starts every morning the same way -- sending her boys to school and serving coffee with a smile. But not today.

Today, the sheriff arrests a local Black teen for murder on flimsy evidence. He calls it justice. Mabel calls it wrong.

She's spent years quietly listening to her customers' secrets. Now, she's asking questions no one wants answered. As the town turns against her and betrayal cuts deep, she realizes the truth is more dangerous than she ever imagined.

Someone is watching and willing to do anything to keep her quiet.

Can Mabel save the accused teen -- or will she be the next victim?

Perfect for fans of fast-paced mystery series, small-town intrigue, and unforgettable heroines. Start reading now -- before the truth stays buried forever.
