HTML:"I laughed, gasped, and cried (all out loud)." -Catriona McPherson, author of Scot and Soda Librarian and aspiring PI Mira James has discovered one corpse a month for each of the eleven months she's lived in Battle Lake. She'd give her left foot to break that streak in April. Then she finds that disturbing note, and a Battle Lake girl vanishes.* She follows the note's trail and is horrified to discover that it leads to her father, who died 13 years earlier. It's a race against the clock to crack the secret he carried to his grave in time to save the girl. Meanwhile, chiseled police chief Gary Wohnt is scrutinizing her every move, aching to finally put her behind bars, and her sexy boyfriend, Johnny, is planning a grand surprise for her. Problem is, she doesn't know if it's a marriage proposal or an intervention. As Mrs. Berns and Mira take on their final case together, Mira discovers it's more personal than she could have imagined, and that she holds not only the life of the vanished girl but the fate of all Battle Lake in her hands. *There's also a surprise "guest" appearance!
