LANDLORDS, LIES, AND A DEADLY FALL ON MAPLE STREET

Bookstore owner Emma Carter expects her first date with charming veterinarian Jake Donovan to involve pasta, awkward flirting, and maybe a little gossip from the porch-sitting Maple Street Ladies—not a body at the bottom of a staircase.

When notorious landlord Edgar Whitlock dies after plunging from the stairs of one of his crumbling apartment buildings, the whole neighborhood has a motive. Furious Marcus Peck publicly blamed Edgar for evicting his mother after thirty years, while distracted waitress Paula Chen keeps lying about where she was before the fatal fall.

With Jake’s lovable dog Chewie sniffing out clues, Lucy spreading gossip faster than the town newspaper, and Emma’s mystery-novel instincts refusing to stay quiet, the trio uncovers secrets hidden behind freshly repaired stairs, rushed phone calls, and simmering grudges.

But someone in town knows exactly what happened at 412 Maple—and they’ll do anything to keep Emma from turning the final page on the truth.
