Nora Pennington, the owner of Miracle Books, believes that a well-chosen novel can bring healing and hope. But she and the rest of the members of the Secret, Book, and Scone Society know that, sometimes, practical help is needed too. Such is the case with the reed-thin girl hiding in the fiction section of Nora's store, wearing a hospital ID and a patchwork of faded bruises. She calls herself Abilene, and, although Nora and her friends offer work, shelter, and a supportive ear, their guest isn't ready to divulge her secrets. But when a customer is found dead in an assumed suicide, Nora uncovers a connection that points to Abilene...as either a suspect or another target. When a second death hits town, Nora and her intrepid friends must help the greenhorn sheriff discern fact from fiction and stop the killer before another story is prematurely brought to a close.

      Narrator Cris Dukehart's sweet tone brings the four members of the Secret, Book, and Scone Society to life in this new mystery. A girl dressed in rags appears one day at Nora's bookstore. Around the same time, one of her neighbors in Miracle Springs, an elderly lady who has fallen into disgrace, is found dead in the pond close to her house. The four characters in the Secret, Book, and Scone Society, Nora, Hester, June, and Estella, are well portrayed by Dukehart, and all the characters, male and female, are given distinctive styles that make following dialogue a breeze. This cozy mystery will keep listeners guessing. E.D. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
