Can’t Judge a Book By Its Murder
Amy Lillard
The first in a new book-themed cosy crime series that's perfect for fans of Death and Croissants and Janice Hallett!
This riveting small town murder mystery proves that not every murder is by the book...
As Sugar Springs gears up for its all-class high school reunion, Mississippi bookstore owner Arlo Stanley prepares to launch her largest event: a book signing with the town's legendary alum and bestselling author, Wally Harrison. That's when Wally is discovered dead outside of Arlo's front door, and her best friend is questioned for the crime.
When the elderly ladies of Arlo's Friday Night Book Club start to investigate, Arlo has no choice but to follow behind to keep them out of trouble. Yet with Wally's reputation, the suspect list only grows longer - his betrayed wife, his disgruntled assistant, even the local man who holds a grudge from a long-ago accident.
Between running interference with the book club and otherwise keeping it all together, Arlo's work is cut out for her. And amidst it all, her one-time boyfriend-turned-private-eye returns to town, just another distraction while she digs to uncover the truth of Wally's death...and the Sugar Springs secret that could have led to his murder.
Perfect for fans of Ellery Adams and Lorna Barrett, Can't Judge a Book By its Murder is full of quirky, Southern charm that fans of detective books will adore. If you love women's murder club stories, this cosy murder mystery is for you!
