A novel by Dianne Harman
In the charming small town of Alma, Missouri, Jane Barrow is known for her thriving cleaning business and her ability to help solve local mysteries. But when her old friend Tracy invites her to see the renovation of a historic bed and breakfast she has bought, Jane finds herself tangled in a dangerous puzzle.
The serene atmosphere of Alma is shattered when one of Tracy’s guests, Victor Marshall, is found dead on the B & B's property. At first glance, his death seems to be from natural causes, but as details emerge, Jane suspects foul play. When it becomes clear that someone drugged her friend Tracy on the same night Victor died, Jane’s instincts kick into overdrive.
As Jane digs deeper, she uncovers a web of secrets involving land deals, a mysterious development company, and a powerful local family. With each clue, Jane realizes that this case isn’t just about a single murder—it’s about greed, betrayal, and the lengths people will go to for power.
And then when she and her children are targeted because of bad decisions her ex-husband has made, her children’s safety and hers become her primary focus. Jane has to protect them as well as solve a murder mystery and fend off the pending murders of her children and her.
