Description

When newspaper owner Emma Lord learns that the Advocate is entangled in a ruthless takeover bid, she braces for a fight that goes far beyond boardrooms. As pressure mounts and alliances shift, a shocking murder forces Emma to dig deeper into the motives behind the deal—while the body of the takeover’s front man turns suspicion into urgency. Set against the tension of looming corporate power and the sharp instincts of a determined investigator, this novel blends suspense with a keen look at loyalty, truth, and the cost of protecting what you’ve built. With Mary Daheim’s signature cozy-mystery momentum and character-driven wit, Emma’s investigation becomes a high-stakes race to uncover who is really pulling the strings.
