About this ebook
For anonymous gossip columnist Chloe LaRue and her best friend, town matriarch EV Torrence, life in Ponderosa Pines is all about keeping the peace, minding everyone else’s business, and making sure the rumor mill stays well-oiled. That is, until murder interrupts small-town life in the most inconvenient ways possible.
When a local handyman turns up dead, EV finds herself at the center of suspicion, and Chloe discovers that reporting on scandals is one thing—solving them is another entirely. As the two women dig deeper, they uncover secrets the town would rather keep buried, from blackmail schemes to strange sightings in the woods and mysteries that stretch far beyond Main Street.
With law enforcement watching closely, friendships tested, and the entire town buzzing with speculation, Chloe and EV must rely on wit, determination, and their unshakeable bond to uncover the truth before gossip turns dangerous.
This boxed set includes the first three novels in the Ponderosa Pines Mysteries, cozy small-town mysteries filled with humor, quirky characters, sharp dialogue, and crimes that prove even the quietest towns have something to hide.
