Sleuthing with the Stars

Sedona, Arizona's Next Chapter bookstore is a haven for Rarity Cole, who's survived cancer and started an exciting second act in her life. With a film festival about to open in town, she has two big author events lined up--but after a live appearance, one of them winds up very unalive . . .

Business is booming as an Olympic cyclist and a famous filmmaker come to town for a film festival and schedule signings at Rarity's bookshop. Luckily, her former employee Darby is back from Scotland and ready to help out. But just as the filmmaker's cult classic starts to roll, Rarity finds him dead . . .

Rarity is naturally an introvert who prefers escaping into a good book with her affectionate Yorkie by her side. But her bout with serious illness has taught her that life is precious. With help from her friends, her coworkers, and her sweetheart, Archer, she's determined to untangle the web of secrets and lies surrounding the director's death, and find out who wanted him out of the picture . . .
