AMAZON BESTSELLER! For fans of romantic suspense and literary thriller comes an absorbing and passionate mystery from bestselling author Jill Winters...
When archives librarian, Nicole Sheffield, inherits an oceanfront property from her Aunt Nina, she's unaware that something has been hidden for her in the house--and that more than one party is eager to get inside. As Nicole begins piecing together clues left by her aunt, she forms an unlikely alliance with an enigmatic man named Michael, who carries a secret of his own. Capturing the beauty and chill of Cape Cod in autumn, Winters' seventh novel takes readers to a picturesque town on the coast of Massachusetts--then uncovers the secrets behind neighborly faces and the possibility of a love behind lies. Few things are what they seem, as this richly atmospheric mystery unfolds.

From the AuthorDear Readers,
I hope you are discovering some awesome books and if so, I am jealous! The birth of my first baby last year demoted my leisure reading from a favorite sport to an occasional hobby. Also, I'd intended to release the second book in my new mystery series to you sooner, but life has been sort of a whirlwind since my smiley son came along...
Right now I'm working on the edits and am on schedule for a Summer 2013 release! In case you aren't familiar, my new series is set in the fictional town of Big Clock, Minnesota and features Caitlyn Rocket, a grad student who works part-time at her local newspaper, The Big Clock Chronicle. I think you'll find Rocket to be a funny and charming heroine. When she isn't coming up with clever guises and unique investigative tactics...she is writing film reviews for the Chronicle (and dragging her scientific best friend, Amy, to said films), as well as catering to her Bichon and avoiding her insufferable mailman. Now if she can only get the uptight new editor of the paper, Ian, to lighten up a little...
Please stay tuned for the new book coming this summer. And if you haven't read it, I hope you will check out the first mystery in the series, The Unprintable Big Clock Chronicle, which spent several weeks on Amazon's bestseller list for humorous fiction, and has also appeared on Amazon's bestseller list for cozy mysteries. Meanwhile, have a fabulous spring & happy reading!
