Secrets old and recurring slam together to keep the town in gossip for a long time coming.
The Everton Mansion sat empty and neglected for decades. After difficult and expensive decisions on what to do with it, repairs are going well until the discovery of a body brings things to a sudden halt. This happens to coincide with Faith researching the Evertons for a communty scrapbook project. A body only makes this more fascinating to her and she can not resist sticking her nose into the business of several long time resident families while trying not to cross the delicate line posed by her detective fiance and new part time boss, future brother-in-law, Bob. To complicate things, her grandmothers scrapbooking store may be in jeopady as well as the venue for Faith's wedding reception. Someone doesn't want secrets revealed and someone else wants them revealed only when they decide it is time.
Even if you have not read the wonderful previous books in this series, this plot is intriguing enough to make you stay up late reading. I wish I had started this book earlier in the day.
You might need your own whiteboard to keep track of the clues and how each is tie to and relates to the others. They all come together but Faith has her work cut out for her.
