Book Synopsis

Murder on the farm? It's gravy for the gossip mill!

Thanksgiving in Cherry Glen was supposed to be perfect for Shiloh Bellamy. With lingering questions about her grandmother's inheritance finally resolved, Shiloh has reclaimed Bellamy Farm's lost acreage and is feeling at peace for the first time in years. She's thankful for her thriving farm, her budding romance with Sheriff Milan Penbrook, and even her drama-free relationship with her family--well, for now.

But the holiday feast takes a sinister turn when Shiloh's mischief-loving pug, Huckleberry, spooks the chickens and uncovers something far darker than buried treasure: human remains. The skeleton's decades-old secrets rattle Cherry Glen, threatening to tarnish the reputation of Shiloh's beloved late grandmother. But Shiloh won't let anyone drag her grandmother's name through the mud. Determined to protect her family's legacy, she dives headfirst into the mystery, uncovering long-hidden truths that some in Cherry Glen would rather keep buried. With tensions rising, secrets surfacing, and danger closing in, can Shiloh unearth the truth before the past claims one more victim?
