Here it is! Spirits and Suspicions, a Spirits in the Library Mystery, has a cover! What do you think?
I absolutely love the cover. From the moment I saw the sketch that my publisher provided me, I knew that they were onto something really good. And I was right. Seeing the finished cover is a very special moment for authors. It’s another step toward the story being released out into the world and I can’t wait for 2/2/27!
To think that it was a small thought of what would happen if a woman was planting flowers at a grave and the deceased appeared as a ghost claiming she was murdered and she needed help proving it. From that question came Spirits and Suspicions. And I have so much fun writing the story and I can’t wait for you to read it.
Here’s a little bit about the story and links to pre-order.
Fleeing her wedding for her hometown, Tinsley Garrett is haunted by a restless spirit, forcing her to unearth dark truths buried within North Preston’s past.
On the eve of her wedding, Tinsley Garrett walks out of her rehearsal dinner, leaving behind her fiancé, her career, and the future she thought she wanted. With her life suddenly in pieces, she returns to her cozy hometown of North Preston, Connecticut, hoping to regroup and avoid the whispers that always follow a runaway bride.
Instead, she’s drawn back into the orbit of her formidable Aunt Bronwyn, head librarian of the historic North Preston Library. When her aunt is injured, Tinsley reluctantly agrees to fill in, stepping into the role she once swore she’d never claim.
But her fresh start takes an unsettling turn when she meets a spirit desperate to be heard, one who insists her death was no accident. Tinsley is determined to expose the woman’s murderer. Her search uncovers secrets festering beneath North Preston’s charming exterior.
To find justice for the dead, Tinsley must confront the truth about the murder and the family legacy she tried to escape. Because in North Preston, secrets rarely stay buried, and the past has a way of calling you home.
