Small town. Deadly stakes...danger lurks backstage
When retired stage actress Veronica Johnson pens her first play, she expects opening night in the charming coastal village of Appleton, Maine to be her encore-quiet applause, proud smiles, and a celebration with friends.
Instead, the spotlight turns deadly.
Moments after delivering his last lines, beloved local actor Graham Linton collapses onstage.
Whispers ripple through the tight-knit community, and suspicion quickly follows.
Sheriff Declan Johnson-Veronica's son-urges her to leave the investigation to him.
But when mysterious notes and sinister phone calls target Veronica herself, she can't stay behind the scenes.
With the town's theater at the center of a growing web of secrets, Veronica steps into the role she knows best-fearless leading lady.
Can she uncover the killer before the final act... or before the curtain closes on her for good?
A charming New England setting, witty sleuthing, and theatrical flair make this debut Veronica Johnson mystery an irresistible treat for cozy-mystery lovers.
