Overview
Perfect for fans of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder and Death at Morning House, this young adult thriller follows a girl who must solve the murder that happened in her family’s inn years ago before she ends up being the next victim.
Once a charming landmark of a quaint small town, Ashford Inn’s only business now comes from true crime fans obsessed with its dark past. Five years ago, local teen Willow Fremont was found dead in one of the inn’s rooms. Her case has gone cold, but a recent book speculating on the mystery has sparked renewed interest. This ghoulish fascination may be the only thing keeping the lights on, but that doesn’t mean Olive Ashford has to like it.
Olive was the one to find Willow’s body. She was thirteen and naïve at the time, dismissed by local police, but now she’s older, smarter, and wary of true crime fanatics looking for a sound bite. They always seem to conveniently forget that Olive and her sister, Marie, are more than characters in their new favorite book—they’re real people who suffered real tragedy.
Willow and Marie used to be best friends but had a falling out while Marie was away at college. The last time Olive and Willow spoke, Willow accused Olive of writing her a threatening note to get back at Willow on Marie’s behalf. Then Willow was dead. Weeks later, so was Olive and Marie’s mom, leaving them on their own—Olive homeschooling herself and Marie working two jobs.
Olive is ready to grin and bear the latest crew of true crime podcasters…until she receives a death threat exactly like Willow’s—that only Olive, Willow, and the killer ever saw. With Marie busy as always, not to mention head over heels for one of the prime suspects, Olive has no choice but to turn to the true crime–loving teens for help finding a killer before a killer finds her.
