Buried in Print
In Wren Lake, everybody reads the obituaries. But nobody reads them as carefully as the woman who writes them.
Nora Tierney is thirty-five, recently divorced, and back in the Michigan lake town she left at eighteen with a scholarship and no intention of returning. She's taken the obituary column at the Wren Lake Weekly as a temporary measure - a way to pay rent while she figures out what comes next. She's discovering it might not be temporary at all.
When beloved florist Margot Ballantine dies of natural causes, her family gives Nora three versions of her life that don't reconcile. Before Nora can find the thread that makes Margot's story true, Margot's estranged nephew Aiden is found dead in the greenhouse, and the police are calling it a break-in by an unknown intruder.
Nora can't finish an obituary she knows is wrong. And the more she digs into Margot's carefully arranged public life - through old clippings, property records, and the contradictory memories of people who thought they knew her - the more certain she is that the story of Margot's death and the story of Aiden's murder are the same story. She just has to find where they meet.
Buried in Print is the first Last Word Mystery, a cozy series set in Wren Lake, Michigan, where the archive always knows more than the town wants to admit.
