Mill Valley was the kind of small town where people smiled in passing and secrets lurked just beneath the surface. Edith Ellis had always loved its charm, far enough from the crime of the big city, close enough to feel safe. Until the day that illusion shattered.
Just days before the town's big church fundraiser, scandal and tragedy collide when the town's most controversial resident is found dead in her home. The whispers start instantly. Who wanted her gone? Or the bigger question...who didn't?
Edith and her best friend Clara never cared much for the woman when she was alive, but they won't let murder stain their carefully planned event. Determined to unmask the killer, they dive into the town's tangled web of secrets, discovering more than they bargained for. But someone in Mill Valley doesn't appreciate their snooping.
As suspicions grow, Edith and Clara find themselves in far deeper than they ever expected. Will they solve the murder or will they find they're in over their heads? One thing's for sure, with a killer on the loose, they'll need all the prayers they can get.
