Promising a big announcement, Stuart Hunter invites a small group of friends to a party at his large, rambling house, among them Chief Gilroy and Rachel Stowe. But when one of the partygoers dies screaming Gilroy's name, Gilroy becomes a suspect in his own department's murder investigation. Rachel's fears that someone is trying to target him are confirmed when incriminating evidence is found at the murder scene.

When the mayor removes the chief from the case, Rachel and her friends spring into action. As they attempt to clear Gilroy's name, Rachel begins to suspect that dark forces from Gilroy's past are working behind the scenes. Would they go so far as to murder an innocent woman? Or does the answer lie closer to home?

This light, cozy mystery offers a clean read with a female amateur sleuth in a small-town setting. No foul language, sex, gore, or graphic scenes of any kind. It can be read as a standalone, but it will be enjoyed more as part of the series.
