Murder in the Woods: A Holiday Cozy Mystery with an Elderly Sleuth
About Murder in the Woods: A Holiday Cozy Mystery with an Elderly Sleuth
A dead llama. Footprints in the snow. And something very wrong at Elsie Mayfield's farm.
Wilma Wade didn't set out to stumble into a crime scene on her morning walk. She rarely does. Yet there she stands at the edge of Elsie Mayfield's farm, looking at a llama that did not die naturally, with footprints in the snow leading straight into the trees.
When Detective Jason Fellow arrives, even he knows this is more than it looks. The death on the farm is just the beginning—a thread that, when pulled, unravels a smuggling ring hiding in plain sight in the community Wilma has spent her retirement years quietly loving. As the investigation moves deeper into the woods and closer to home, Wilma discovers that the people most willing to exploit a small town are often the ones no one suspects.
It will take everything she has—and the unlikely partnership she's built with Detective Fellow—to bring the truth to light before the damage goes any further.
