Alpine Hero

Emma Lord Mystery (Alpine Series) · Book 6

Description

When a woman is found dead at Stella’s Styling Salon with her throat slashed, Emma Lord—editor and publisher of the Alpine Advocate—can’t help but dig into the case, even as Alpine’s tight-knit community insists it’s “nothing.” As rumors spread and unsettling strangers appear, Emma follows a trail of clues that pulls her from everyday small-town life into a web of secrets, old grudges, and dangerous motives. Blending cozy charm with sharp mystery plotting, this installment explores how appearances can mislead, how reputations are made and broken, and how truth often surfaces only when someone is willing to ask the hard questions. Mary Daheim’s signature, conversational style delivers a suspenseful, character-driven whodunit that keeps the focus on community, wit, and the steady unraveling of a killer’s pattern.
