The Brooch of Bitter Roses: Mytherra Mysteries

About The Brooch of Bitter Roses: Mytherra Mysteries

Melody Thornroot and her daughter Briar run Ever After Artifacts, Cindralune City’s most unusual antique shop. Between haunted tea sets, whispering portraits, and enchanted heirlooms with minds of their own, business is rarely dull. But when a customer dies only hours after purchasing a silver rose brooch from their latest estate acquisition, the pair find themselves at the center of a murder investigation.

The brooch carries a curse…Or so everyone believes. Determined to clear their shop's name, Melody and Briar begin tracing the artifact's ownership through a century of forgotten diaries, faded photographs, and magical records. What they uncover is a trail of tragedy connecting generations of the city's oldest families.

Someone has spent decades nurturing a grudge. And they aren't finished yet. As autumn fog settles over Cindralune City's lantern-lit streets, Melody and Briar must uncover the truth before another name is added to the brooch's long and deadly history.

Because some antiques aren't haunted by ghosts.
