Book 3 in the Agatha Award-Winning Rare Books Cozy Mystery Series!
When a simple storage unit auction turns deadly, librarian Juniper Blume finds herself unpacking more than she bargained for...
Rare books librarian Juniper Blume has settled into life at her sister's Wildflower Inn in the charming Chesapeake Bay town of Rose Mallow, Maryland. But when curiosity draws her to a local storage unit auction, Juniper's winning bid comes with a shocking bonus—a dead body hidden among meticulously organized museum-quality boxes.
As Rosh Hashanah approaches, Juniper must navigate a web of secrets, a town full of suspects, and valuable collectibles—including letters from Jane Austen. Can Juniper solve the mystery before the killer strikes again? Her librarian's curiosity and attention to detail might be her greatest strengths—or put her directly in harm's way.
The Tell-Tale Homicide
​​
Book 2 in the Agatha Award-Winning Rare Books Cozy Mystery Series!
Rare books librarian Juniper Blume lands her dream job: creating a new museum in her Chesapeake Bay town of Rose Mallow, Maryland. But on her very first day, she makes a shocking discovery—a dead man clutching a book by Edgar Allan Poe, stolen from the collections!
As Juniper gets closer to cracking the coded message hidden inside the book, she realizes someone is desperate to keep its literary secrets buried…even if that means burying her, too.
With Poe references and bloomin' puns galore, librarian-turned-sleuth Juniper Blume's keen research skills and encyclopedic knowledge help decipher the mystery and save the day!

Juniper Blume continues to blossom in this page-turning new mystery. I love a mystery with a side of Poe and missing rare books. Silver seamlessly blends in a bit of Maryland history in The Tell-Tale Homicide.
