A murdered bookstore owner. A memoir exposing decades of corruption. And a serial killer who will stop at nothing to keep the truth hidden. When Emma Hartley is hired to fact-check a explosive memoir written by beloved Willow Creek bookstore owner Margaret Chen, she expects a routine investigation into local corruption.

Margaret's memoir documents forty years of corruption in their picturesque coastal town, naming names and providing evidence of crimes that stretch back decades.
