Skin and Bones by Liliana Hart

Mabel McCoy, a young and widowed tea shop owner in the quaint coastal town of Grimm Island, South Carolina, finds her life as calm as a perfectly steeped cup of tea. The highlight of her month is hosting the Silver Sleuths Murder Society at her charming shop—a group of spirited seniors with a penchant for mysteries. She loves the tranquility and wouldn’t have it any other way.

But when a dashing new sheriff arrives in town with a backlog of baffling cold cases, Mabel’s peaceful existence is upended. She’s reluctantly drawn into a tangled web of lies, deceit, and murder that goes far deeper than she ever imagined. With the Silver Sleuths eager to put their fictional detective skills to the test, Mabel must navigate the treacherous waters of real-life mystery-solving. Secrets emerge, old wounds resurface, and Mabel must uncover the truth before it’s too late.

Will the Silver Sleuths unravel the town’s darkest secrets, or will this be a mystery too perilous for even their sharp minds?
