BOOK TWO · THE BELLFLOWER BOOKSHOP MYSTERIES
A Carol in Red Ink
A choir rehearsal. A red-inked program from 1987. And a killer who never stopped rewriting the story.
THE STORY SO FAR
Ellie is decorating for Christmas. Bellflower has other plans.
Ellie Bell is decorating the Bellflower Bookshop for Christmas when local archivist Celia Rowan asks for help preparing a facsimile of the 1987 Candlelight Carol program — Bellflower's most treasured holiday tradition. What starts as a quiet restoration project turns urgent when Celia is found dead, and the only clue is a copy of the old program, annotated in red ink.
A small-town holiday whodunit. No graphic violence, no explicit content — just a puzzle to solve by candlelight.
