Book High And Low

Jessica Brimer

Maison d'édition: Next Chapter

Synopsis

Welcome to the re-opening of a used bookstore in East Tennessee, Bind Me Again. Books are piled high and the shelves are fully stocked.
 
Garnet Stone hoped the remodel would make the bookstore tidy, but her boss Jane is proving to be as messy as the previous owner. Garnet undergoes a secret mission to declutter the store, which isn’t easy with two cats running the place.
 
Jacob Rome overshadows Garnet’s concerns. The freelance editor has moved to Sevier Oak and causes problems with the locals. When he brings books for trade-in, Garnet and Jane find a death certificate tucked inside. The deceased is a missing person from twenty years ago, and the mystery intensifies when someone murders Jacob behind the store.
 
Garnet and Jane take it upon themselves to save the bookshop’s reputation - and of course, to satisfy their curiosity. Solving the homicide is a challenge as everyone seems to be lying, including the dead man. In the end, unearthing the truth will reveal much more than simply who murdered Jacob Rome.

Hollywood has come to Fern Valley, and the one stoplight town may never be the same. Everyone wants to get in on the act. 
 
 
 
The crew from the wildly popular, fan favorite, Fatal Impressions, takes over Jules Keene's glamping resort, and they bring a lot of offscreen drama and baggage that doesn't include the scads of costumes, props, and crowds that descend on the bucolic resort in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Added security, hundreds of calls from hopeful extras, and some demanding divas keep Jules's team hopping. 
 
 
 
When the show's prickly head writer ends up dead under the L. Frank Baum tiny house in what looks like a staged murder scene with a kitschy homage to the Wizard of Oz, Jules has to figure out who would want the writer dead. Then while they are still reeling from the first murder, the popular publicist gets lost after a long night at the local honky-tonk and winds up strangled. Jules needs to solve both crimes before filming is canceled, and her business is ruined.
