Murder was just the beginning. Justice is where it ends.

Welcome to the Buttercup Inn, a charming Victorian bed and breakfast in Willowbrook Falls, Vermont, where Rosie Pemberton serves her famous blueberry scones, Chester the cat presides over breakfast, and guests have an unfortunate habit of turning up dead. When true crime podcaster Jordan Blackwood arrives to film his series finale about the inn's unusual history of murders, he makes a chilling prediction: the sixth victim will die "in the most beautiful room, by invisible means." When Jordan himself is found dead exactly as he predicted, Rosie must unravel a web of secrets that stretches back generations to uncover the truth about who's really been protecting Willowbrook Falls -- and why.

As Rosie and Deputy Jake Morrison investigate, they discover that Jordan's death is connected to a shadowy tradition of "guardians" who've protected small New England towns for decades by ensuring that those who threaten their communities meet untimely ends. The trail leads to someone Rosie trusts completely, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about her inherited inn, her beloved Aunt Mildred, and the difference between justice and murder. With two more podcasters marked for death and time running out, Rosie must decide whether to uphold the law or honor a tradition that has kept her town safe for generations.

In this thrilling conclusion to the Buttercup Inn Mysteries series, every secret will be revealed, every pattern exposed, and the true cost of protection laid bare. "Dead Air" delivers a masterful blend of cozy mystery charm and psychological suspense, where murder is never random, justice wears many faces, and even the most peaceful small towns hide dangerous truths. Pour yourself a cup of coffee, settle into your favorite chair, and prepare for a finale that will leave you questioning whether some secrets are worth killing for -- and whether some killers deserve forgiveness.
