A fresh start, a budding romance, and a small-town mystery-Bridget Jones meets Nancy Drew.
Daphne Patterson hasn't just hit rock bottom-she's faceplanted. At thirty, she's an unemployed librarian, betrayed by her fiancé, and stuck living with her overbearing mother. To say she needs a fresh start is an understatement. When she unexpectedly inherits a house from her long-lost great-aunt Florence in the quaint town of Cobb, Maine, she sees her chance. The plan? Settle the will, sell the house, and rebuild her life-far away from her family.
But Cobb has other ideas. As Daphne settles into Florence's home, memories of the one summer they spent together resurface-books, to-do lists, and crackling vinyl records. The more she uncovers, the more she realizes how little she knew about her great-aunt, especially when a mysterious clue makes her question Florence's supposed suicide.
Between eccentric townsfolk, unexpected discoveries, and a mystery she can't ignore, Daphne's plans take an unforeseen turn. With the help of new friends, plenty of coffee, and a few surprises, she just might find the belonging she's been searching for. But if she stays lost in stories instead of writing her own, she might miss out on the real-life happy ending waiting for her in Cobb.
