Death on Demand

Carolyn Hart

In the charming, tightly policed town of Chastain, South Carolina, Annie is treated as guilty until she can prove otherwise—and when the evidence starts to point in the wrong direction, she must rely on her sharp instincts and relentless sleuthing to clear her name. As if that weren’t enough, Annie is drawn into the Historical Society’s annual spring house tour, where she’s asked to stage a murder for the festivities—only to discover that someone has turned the performance into something far more real. With her fiancé, Max Darling, by her side, Annie follows clues through Chastain’s glittering social circles, where appearances are polished and motives run deep. Blending cozy mystery charm with a keen eye for small-town secrets, this story explores justice, reputation, and the danger of underestimating the “Beautiful People.”
