Sometimes, owning a bookstore can be murder…
When Nora Jones inherits her estranged uncle’s dusty old bookshop in historic St. Augustine, she figures it’s the perfect excuse for a quick visit—tie up loose ends, sell a few first editions, and maybe learn a bit about the family she never knew.
But what looks like a peaceful retirement project takes a deadly turn when her uncle’s supposed heart attack turns out to be murder.
Suddenly, Nora finds herself in the middle of a whodunit—complete with a charming (but clearly misdirected) detective, a cast of colorful suspects, and a Greyhound named Margo who’s better at sniffing out secrets than sitting still.
Armed with curiosity, caffeine, and a growing group of eccentric friends, Nora dives headfirst into the case. Can she catch the killer before someone else gets shelved—permanently?
Body in the Books is the delightful first novella in the Nora Jones Lighthearted Mystery series. With a blend of humor, heart, and a clever twist of crime, it’s perfect for fans of Stephanie Plum, Nancy Drew, and Scooby Doo-style sleuthing.
