Description

Ruby Finch, a dedicated librarian in the quiet town of Cozy Hollow, finds her life taking a dark turn when she discovers a desperate plea for help tucked within the pages of a rare Jane Austen edition. What begins as a historical curiosity quickly evolves into a chilling investigation into the Swanson family’s reclusive estate. Alongside her sisters, Violet and Scarlett, and the skeptical Sheriff Nate Adams, Ruby unearths a web of long-buried secrets, including unmarked graves and a woman vanished from public memory. As she pieces together the tragic life of Meredith Denton, Ruby must navigate the complexities of local politics and her own impending marriage to Alex, a gentle Russian diner owner. The investigation reaches a fever pitch when the town’s facade of piety cracks, revealing that the past is never truly buried. This gripping cozy mystery explores themes of family loyalty, the weight of reputation, and the courage required to bring hidden truths to light in a small community.
