<p>Roxie Caldwell thought retirement meant endless days of peaceful gardening. She was wrong. Her petunias are dying, and her journalistic instincts are screaming. Luckily, an old friend, Sheriff Sandy Stone, has just the thing: a dusty room full of cold cases and a desperate plea for help.</p>
<p>Roxie’s first mission? A priceless ruby pendant was stolen two decades ago along with a unique diamond bracelet. The bracelet has just mysteriously reappeared on an online auction. What begins as a simple jewel theft quickly unravels into something far more intricate. In Harmony Creek, some secrets are meant to stay buried—especially those tied to the town’s founding families.</p>
