This is not your mother’s murder mystery. Sharon Linnea brings us back into the Tranquility community to reunite with Rev. Hannah, Inspector Spaulding, Marta, Phil and of course our favorite bartender and amateur detective, Avalon Nash.
“Like many communities, Tranquility had a wide rift between those who wanted to keep things as they’d always been and those who wanted to move things forward.”
This was an intense mystery that delves into different perspectives and experiences. The friendships are deep and keep the characters from dealing with challenges in isolation. Unique personalities respond to crisis in a variety of ways - some healthier than others. Some are super toxic and angry. Some are compassionate and nurturing.
At the heart of all of this is the question, how and why did Sandy Wilcox Evans end up dead the weekend of her high school reunion?
As ghosts of the past weave themselves into the narrative, do they hold the truth that can help this community heal?
It’s hard to write too much without spoilers so I will just say, get a copy, sit in front of a cozy fire, sip on a cider libation (did I mention the fabulous themed cocktails at the end of each chapter?) and settle into a heart stopping, witty, journey into Death from Beyond.
Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.
