Publisher's Synopsis
Emma Blackwood's favorite pastime is solving literary murder mysteries...until the body in her living room makes everything a little too real.
When Emma comes to the Black Hills to work at her Aunt Rose's B&B, the Sweetbrier Inn, she is hoping for a quiet break from the corporate treadmill. But she hadn't expected murder and intrigue to mar this peaceful setting.
As she wades through too many clues to identify the murderer, she soon finds that the culprit isn't stopping at only one homicide and may even have placed Emma herself on the list of targets. With the help of her friend Becky, and a deputy sheriff who grudgingly lets them join in on the investigation, Emma tracks down the killer. But will it be in time to save the next victim?
