Description
As Queensville’s historic Dumpe Manor undergoes a long-awaited restoration, tensions flare among the Dumpe family and the Heritage Society members determined to reclaim its past. Jaymie Leighton is focused on outfitting the manor’s kitchen with authentic Depression-era pieces—until a vintage wooden mallet leaves her injured and an intruder fleeing, followed by the murder of the house’s resident historian. With no obvious theft to explain the crimes, Jaymie must sift through old grudges, family secrets, and competing claims to the manor before the killer strikes again. Blending small-town intrigue, historical atmosphere, and cozy mystery charm, this suspenseful investigation proves that the past can be a dangerous thing to uncover.
