Busted and Bail Money (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798285793762)

Retired actress Clara Fitzwater thought a jaunt to Flintlock in her daisy-decaled van, Bread Loaf, would net her some farm-fresh eggs and a dose of theater nostalgia. But when a festival play ends with a poisoned apple and her old friend Archie framed for attempted murder, Clara's trip turns into a curtain-raising mystery.

Alongside her savvy niece Jane and Archie's lawyer son Collin, Clara dives into a web of jealousy, sabotage, and pirate lore tied to Captain William Flintlock's lost treasure. As theater curtains burn and secrets unravel, from a lovesick innkeeper to a shadowy businessman dubbed "The Planner", Clara must channel her onstage flair to unmask the culprit. With time ticking and Archie's freedom at stake, will she crack the case, or will Flintlock's past bury them all?

A cozy mystery brimming with charm, humor, and unexpected twists in this relaxing, family and friends mystery series.
