Stone That Crumbled: A Pinky McKnight Investment Club Mystery

By Dr. Sandra Tanner

Dr. Sandra Tanner is an award-winning author. What is the significance of a dislocated shoulder, an upcoming family reunion, and cellophane wrappers? They all interweave to solve a four-year-old murder. But how? When private investigator Kadence McKnight learns of her family's strong adverse reactions to the upcoming quinquennial family reunion, she realizes she has a problem on her hands. She knows the backlash is because the murderer of Satrine Campbell has not been captured. Satrine's body was found four years ago, a few feet beyond the back fence of the McKnight family cemetery, covered with decaying leaves. The cemetery is on the same property where the reunion will be held. Since the property belongs to Kadence, a gift from her deceased grandmother, she knows she has to use her investigative skills to find the murderer. If she doesn't find the murderer, the negative comments, innuendos, and superstitious beliefs will persist, halting a tradition her beloved grandmother began over fifty years ago. Upon her grandmother's deathbed, Kadence promised she would keep the family reunions going, and she aims to do that. Kadence encounters several hard blows in her investigation, but one stomps her the most: After falling in love with the man of her dreams, she discovers he may have a hidden agenda. That agenda is to find out as much about her investigation as he can. Why would he pretend to fall in love with her to get information on her investigation? Kadence is determined to uncover the answer. With her uncanny insight, she presses forward, eventually finding the truth about him and who committed the murder. A stone that crumbled in front of Kadence held the key she had been looking for. This infiltrating and unsettling mystery and love story ensnares the reader in its story of strength and family dynamics. With its rich characters and striking family bonds, Stone That Crumbled is a poignant, intimate story about the complexity of romantic and familial love and a female detective's vulnerabilities, insights, and perseverance when solving a murder.
