Spirits and Suspicions - by Lexie Cooper (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Fleeing her wedding for her hometown, Tinsley Garrett is haunted by a restless spirit, forcing her to unearth dark truths buried within North Preston's past.

On the eve of her wedding, Tinsley Garrett walks out of her rehearsal dinner, leaving behind her fiancé, her career, and the future she thought she wanted. With her life suddenly in pieces, she returns to her cozy hometown of North Preston, Connecticut, hoping to regroup and avoid the whispers that always follow a runaway bride.

Instead, she's drawn back into the orbit of her formidable Aunt Bronwyn, head librarian of the historic North Preston Library. When her aunt is injured, Tinsley reluctantly agrees to fill in, stepping into the role she once swore she'd never claim.

But her fresh start takes an unsettling turn when she meets a spirit desperate to be heard, one who insists her death was no accident. Tinsley is determined to expose the woman's murderer. Her search uncovers secrets festering beneath North Preston's charming exterior.

To find justice for the dead, Tinsley must confront the truth about the murder and the family legacy she tried to escape. Because in North Preston, secrets rarely stay buried, and the past has a way of calling you home.
