The Lavender Letter Murders
A reclusive baker. A village full of secrets. And a killer who writes in lavender. Wren Calloway has spent three years keeping her head down and her ovens hot, hiding from a past she refuses to discuss in the quiet English village of Briar Hollow. But on a bruised October dawn, a lavender-scented letter slides beneath the bakery door, and it names her as the next to die. When the body it predicts is found by dusk, Wren becomes both suspect and target in a murder she cannot explain. Detective Cassius Harbor has come from London to bury his own ghosts in his late aunt's cottage, not to chase a poetically-minded killer. Yet the letters keep arriving, each one more pointed than the last, each one pulling him closer to the Pemberton sisters at Lavender Manor, and to the truth about the village's long-buried tragedy. As the fog thickens, the baker, the detective, and a cast of villagers with reasons of their own to stay silent must decode the lavender messages before the final envelope arrives. Because the killer isn't just predicting death. The killer is rewriting history, and someone in Briar Hollow knows exactly how the story ends.
