Deadly Prose
(2025)(The seventh book in the Candice Holladay Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Carla Crowe
Literary giant Gregory Caldwell was set to sign books at Candice Holladay’s shop, The Crime Scene—until Chowder discovered him dead in the stockroom just hours before the event.
Excitement had been building in the small town of East Black Oak ever since Caldwell’s visit was announced. Now, instead of a lively book signing, Candice and her sleuthing sidekick Gracie are faced with a dead body and a tangled mystery.
Caldwell’s novels were notorious for drawing inspiration from real people, revealing secrets best left buried. With a lineup of suspects that includes local writers, politicians, historians, and even ghostwriters, the list of motives seems endless.
As journalist Christopher Donovan publishes stories to rattle the guilty, threats begin to roll in, warning Candice to drop the case—or else.
With Police Chief Sterling enlisting her help, Candice must tread carefully. One wrong move could turn her into the next victim in a mystery that’s as deadly as Caldwell’s prose.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
