'A gripping, humorous, fast-paced mix of Agatha Christie, Lynda La Plante, and Martina Cole'
In the sleepy English village of Nettleacre three amateur sleuths; an ex-glamour girl, an ex-policewoman, and a white witch, unlock dark secrets through an anonymous crime post-box-but the dead won't let them rest.
You've read cozy mysteries where the detective solves everything neatly. But what if the clues came from whispers-from villagers too afraid to speak openly? What if solving the case meant facing not just murderers, but things that shouldn't exist? This isn't a puzzle book. It's a reckoning. When ordinary women begin hearing from anonymous sources reporting a growing list of missing persons, they step into a world the law can't reach. Where fear and shame silences and unseen forces move swiftly behind the scenes. We discover:Why a missing-persons case spirals beyond their control
The redemption arc of an fearless killer they must trust
Paranormal twists that reframe the entire investigation
The complication of a romance that crosses dimensions
That to ignore enables, but to stand up could destroy them all
And why the dead refuse to stay silent
Perfect for readers who love amateur sleuths, village noir, laughter, a touch of romance, and the uncanny.
