Four friends play to win... and another husband dies. But this time it's a crime from 1924. Can the Cardboard Cottage sleuths solve this cold case where yet another husband fell prey to murder?
Vintage game store owner, Amy Sparks, and her three best friends volunteer to play powerful women from Bluff Springs' history in a fundraiser. But their stage is the graveyard-also known as The Silent City. When an old necklace drops in Amy's lap, she realizes she may hold the key to a cold case murder.
Since Spiritualism and séances were all the rage in the 1920s, when the antique Ouija board Amy bought for her shop unexpectedly reveals a secret, she wonders what else it has to say. But when she and her friends reluctantly consult the mystical talking board, the planchette points a finger at the living.
Hobo signs and history are part of this puzzling mystery from that frigid night in the past, but it isn't long before Amy discovers that more than one husband didn't make it out of his marriage alive. Was there a black widow society in their little town one-hundred years ago? Has she uncovered a restless spirit wanting revenge?
But most importantly, can Amy solve this tale of deception and bring justice to the victims before innocent lives are changed forever?
