Elderly women are dying in River Valley…after their names appear in the obituaries. When the latest woman comes to Marsha Steele for help finding the killer before she becomes the next victim, Marsha is thrust into another mystery that could very well be her last.
Business is booming at Country Gifts from Heaven, Marsha still hasn’t set a wedding date, her nemesis has arrived back in town and has her painted claws wrapped around Duane, and Marsha’s daughter has her teenage eyes on the new, brooding young man in town. With all of life’s craziness, can Marsha catch a killer before she becomes the next target?

Marsha Steele is at it again.
When she volunteers to help the high school librarian with a book fair, Marsha stumbles across the woman’s body and is roped into running the book fair alone. Marsha comes up with the great idea of doing the fair along with a harvest carnival to absorb two volunteer jobs into one. The main attraction is a Haunted Tunnel.
Little does she know, but evil lurks inside the tunnel that has nothing to do with scary costumes. AMAZON PRINT
