A Hatpin for Good Luck

By MG 'Doc' Woodworth

A missing charity fund. A planted hatbox. A flapper niece under suspicion.

Chicago, 1927. Evelyn Hart has two rules for running her millinery shop: always greet a customer by name, and never let gossip leave the counter. But when the parish's Winter Fund for orphans vanishes overnight - and a Hart & Feather hatbox is found near the empty safe - gossip lands squarely on her niece, Lottie.

Determined to clear Lottie's name before whispers ruin them both, Evie follows a trail of swapped tissue paper, mismatched timelines, and the telltale scent of bay rum cologne. Her search takes her from the cozy order of the parish hall to the smoky glamour of The Blue Canary club, where polite gangsters smile too easily and secrets trade hands like playing cards.

With the parish treasurer growing suspicious, a charming underworld figure offering "help," and Officer Joe Morelli warning her to leave well enough alone, Evie must stitch together the truth before the Winter Fund - and her reputation - unravel completely.

A Hatpin for Good Luck is the warm-hearted, sharp-eyed debut of the Milliner's Row Mysteries, perfect for fans of Jazz Age charm, clever amateur sleuths, and the enduring power of community.
