The Family Secret

Description

In the peaceful town of Cottonwood Springs, nestled amidst Colorado's scenic beauty, a sinister shadow lurks. For Olivia, moving from New Mexico was supposed to be a fresh start, an escape from a haunting past. But the random flicker of her yard security lights reveals a chilling truth – her past has caught up with her, and it might be closer than she thinks. Leaving behind the memories of a menacing uncle, Olivia had hoped for a life free from the constant fear of being watched. But now, even in a new state, she feels the all-too-familiar prickle of unseen eyes on her. And with a young daughter to protect, the stakes have never been higher. Linc and Brigid, the warm-hearted owners of a B & B, had only intended to give Olivia a job and a safe haven. But they quickly find themselves entangled in her life's web of intrigue. As yard lights inexplicably flash and the ominous presence grows, they begin to question if their home is under surveillance too. And the big question that looms over them all - how did Olivia's stalker trace her to their B & B? Brigid, with her close ties to the Sheriff's Department, delves deep into the mystery. But even with her expertise, the danger escalates. And when Olivia's daughter is brazenly abducted from a playground, all bets are off. Yet, hope and courage manifest in the most unexpected forms. Jett, their massive Newfoundland dog, proves that loyalty knows no bounds. As tensions rise and time dwindles, Jett's fierce protective instincts might be the very thing that stands between danger and safety. Venture into a tale where the lines between trust and treachery blur, where every corner you turn could hold a shadow from the past. Will Olivia finally find peace? Can Brigid and Linc protect their home and those they've come to care for? Discover a story of resilience, suspense, and undying loyalty in this riveting 18th installment of the Cottonwood Springs Cozy Mystery Series by a USA Today Bestselling Author.
