Murder’s never on the reading list—until the book club starts dropping dead.
Single mom Sophie “Phee” Kimball isn’t a detective—she’s an account clerk in chilly Mankato, Minnesota. But when her mother Harriet insists that her book club’s latest pick is cursed—after four members die under suspicious circumstances—Phee reluctantly heads to Harriet’s retirement community in sun-soaked Sun City West, Arizona.
Phee doesn’t believe in curses, but something is clearly not right under the blazing desert sun. As she digs deeper, she uncovers secrets, rivalries, and motives lurking behind friendly smiles. Now, it’s up to Phee to read between the lines before the killer strikes again—turning the next chapter into someone’s last.
The perfect cozy mystery debut for fans of Richard Osman, Robert Thorogood and Jesse Q. Sutanto.
