As they dig deeper, long-buried family scandals come to light, and danger lurks closer than ever. Meanwhile, Michelle finds herself caught between her feelings for her best friend, T.J., and the undeniable spark with Craig.
With a killer on the loose and the past refusing to stay buried, Michelle must solve the mystery before she becomes the next victim. Join Michelle and her friends for a cozy mystery filled with 1970s nostalgia, small-town secrets, and a touch of romance.

Author Bio:
SHARON KAY grew up in Ohio and earned a degree in photojournalism from Bowling Green State University. Her time as a commuting college student in the 1970s—complete with rushed breakfasts, vending machine lunches, and too many hours spent hunting for a decent parking spot—loosely inspired The Michelle Kilpatrick Mysteries.
When she’s not plotting fictional murders (strictly on paper, of course), Sharon enjoys organic gardening, devouring mysteries and historical fiction, and indulging in cheesecake—because life is too short to skip dessert. She has three adult children and has embraced her role as a grandma to their ever-growing collection of furbabies.
