Official synopsis Publisher
A dead employee. A missing child. Anonymous phone calls in the dead of night. Judi Westerholme’s troubles aren’t over…
Already struggling to juggle co-running Candlebark’s pub/bistro along with her new childcare responsibilities, what Judi doesn’t need right now is more stress. Yet, as usual, it arrives in spades: she starts receiving threatening, late night phone calls before discovering one of her best employees, Kate, shot dead in her bed.
Once again, Judi finds herself at the center of a murder investigation, as well as the hunt for the Kate’s fourteen year-old daughter who has been missing since the murder. Add in the uncertainty of her relationship with D.S. Heath and the fact that her estranged mother’s nursing home keeps calling to urge her to visit, and Judi might finally be at breaking point.
