Sara Medlar may be retired as a bestselling author, but her career as an amateur detective is facing one final mysteryâand itâs a killer.
Retired romance novelist Sara Medlar has been comfortably sharing her large home with her niece Kate and her âhonorary grandsonâ Jack. Itâs a convenient arrangement given the Medlar Three, as theyâve become known, are often working closely together to solve mysteries in their small town of Lachlan, Florida. But when real estate agent Kate announces sheâs been given the listing for the townâs storied Lachlan House, it sets off alarm bells for Sara and Jack. The infamous house has a dark history, one thatâs certain to haunt them all.
With little memory of her childhood, Kate doesnât understand what the fuss is aboutâuntil the trio visits the house and makes a grim discovery. Flooded by memories of the past, Kate realizes she spent time there as a child. But stumbling upon a skeleton dressed in a rotting tuxedoâa murder victim with connections to her fatherâcauses Kate to wonder if the childhood she canât remember might be one sheâd rather forget.
As Sara, Kate and Jack delve deeper into the dead manâs history, they learn he was last seen at a party held at Lachlan House in the late ninetiesâa swanky soiree attended by his many enemies. With more than one motive in play, every partygoer is a suspect, and Sara is determined to find the culprit, even if it means digging up past secrets sheâs worked hard to keep buried.
