The Trouble With Opal: Whispering Pines Village Mysteries Book 1

By Mary A Russell

Secrets and Deception in this Original Series
What would you do if someone you loved were accused of a terrible crime--and time was running out to prove their innocence?
Rod is desperate to save his daughter, Opal, from spending the rest of her life in prison. Her only hope may rest with Sherry Raven, an observant amateur investigator with a knack for noticing what everyone else overlooks.
In the close-knit community of Whispering Pines Village, secrets seldom remain buried forever. When Sherry and her friend Cassie Dalton begin investigating a disturbing string of deaths involving retired CIA agents, they uncover old grudges, concealed motives, and troubling connections that reach far beyond Opal's case.
Someone in Whispering Pines knows the truth--and will do anything to keep it hidden.
With the help of newfound friends, sharp instincts, and more courage than good sense, Sherry must unravel the mystery before another victim is claimed and Opal loses her freedom forever.
For readers who enjoy clever amateur sleuths, small-town secrets, memorable characters, and mysteries filled with twists and turns, The Trouble with Opal is the compelling first book in the Whispering Pines Village Mysteries.
