Secondhand Sleuth Mysteries
Thrift shop til someone drops…
When she receives a strange invitation to her aunt’s midnight funeral in the cozy Minnesota town of Pine Grove, Jessica Braun’s life is going nowhere. Her marriage is over, and her dead-end job has run out of road.
Now she’s inheriting an old log house full of collected treasures and memories, and learns Aunt Daphne’s death was no accident. To make matters worse, Jess is the hopeless deputy’s prime suspect. After a second old-timer is silenced and a third may be in danger, she dives into her own investigation and the town’s worn-out secrets.
With the help of her salvaged cat and mystery-obsessed teen neighbor, Jess is determined to catch the killer and turn her cluttered garage into the Pine Grove Thrift Store.
Can Jess uncover the truth, and clean up her aunt’s mess, before it’s too late?
