Halloween has transformed Riverside Towers into a festive wonderland of costumes, carved pumpkins, and spooky decorations as property manager Crystal Waters prepares for the apartment complex's annual masquerade party. But when a local true-crime researcher begins asking unsettling questions about a decades-old disappearance connected to the building, Crystal realizes some residents are far too eager to keep the past buried.
Then the researcher turns up dead.
With Detective Lance Hendricks leading the official investigation and his skeptical partner, Detective Carl Briggs, urging caution, Crystal can't ignore the trail of clues hidden beneath Riverside's cheerful façade. Alongside her best friend, Linda Hooper, and her three curious miniature dachshunds-Minnie, Daisy, and Bella-Crystal uncovers forgotten photographs, anonymous threats, and a shocking secret that someone has been willing to kill to protect for forty years.
When the fearless little dachshunds dig up evidence no one expected to find, Crystal discovers that the deadliest masks aren't the ones worn at the Halloween party. As the masquerade begins and a killer hides among the costumed guests, she'll have to expose the truth before she becomes the next victim.
Buried Leads and Buried Bodies is a delightful cozy mystery filled with quirky characters, lovable dogs, small-town charm, and plenty of twists. Perfect for readers who love amateur sleuths, Halloween settings, and mysteries where every clue leads to another surprise.
