Murder is nothing novel for the Ashton Corners Mystery Readers and Cheese Straws Society-but this time the police want to throw the book at one of their own . . . It's time to celebrate when club member Molly Mathews's childhood friend, Teensy Coldicutt, moves back to town-complete with a published book. But as the club plans Teensy's book launch, Molly is attacked and Teensy's books are stolen. Who would be so desperate for 150 copies of a sexy novel written by an elderly widow? Then Ashton Corners is hit with another shock when Teensy's publisher turns up dead-and fellow club member and former police chief Bob Miller is taken into custody. Convinced that Teensy's missing books hold the key to the murder, Lizzie Turner and her band of readers are determined to hunt them down. But the plot thickens when their search leads them straight into a counterfeiting ring. Now they must unravel this surprise twist before the killer gets the chance to write someone else off . . .
