FOR FANS OF CLUE AND NANCY DREW

Advice columnist Olivia Penn's cozy hometown of Apple Station, Virginia, is preparing for its annual fall festival and Halloween parade. Pumpkins, scarecrows, and skeletons decorate the town as vibrant autumn colors signal the change in season. With the hint of a new romance in the crisp air, the spooky season seems anything but-until a lakeside picnic with a friend catches her in the wrong place at the wrong time.

After a dead body is discovered amid an algae bloom under mysterious circumstances, tensions between an organic farm and a country club reveal multiple motives for murder. While suspects point fingers at each other, the only reliable witness is a neurodivergent child who doesn't speak.

When Olivia investigates why the child has linked her to the crime, she discovers that the answer to the puzzle has been hiding in plain sight. As she races to collect the evidence that the killer left behind, an unexpected encounter and revelation forces her to improvise a risky plan to thwart the murderer's scheme. With time running out, justice-and her life-depend on quick thinking and a leap of faith.

Can Olivia unmask the killer before the crucial evidence vanishes? Or will she become the next victim and be silenced forever?
