A missing manuscript and a dead author spell a narrative of chaos in Bloomsville. When reclusive author Ashton Blackwood is found lifeless at Shelf Indulgence, I’m drawn into a plot twist thicker than the most intricate novel. I’m Grace Thompson—florist by trade, sleuth by necessity. Rosie, my terrier with a nose for mysteries, sniffs out intrigue, guiding me to characters ranging from rival authors to disgruntled editors. The stakes rise higher than a climactic chapter as I join forces with Chloe, my forensic partner. Sheriff Waverly admits this mystery is more baffling than a poorly-written ending, turning to our sleuthing narrative for resolution. Each clue unfolds like pages in a gripping book, exposing motives inked with envy and ambition. The truth’s plot twists, pointing to a respected figure encased in their own tragic novella. Tom, my boyfriend, offers treats and a sweet presence that presents a comforting subplot amid the chaos. Entangled in a literary vendetta, I race against the clock to reveal the killer’s identity. With each chapter of mystery fitting into place, can Rosie and I craft the perfect ending and unveil the culprit before the town’s peace is written off?
