Death by a Thousand Sips

Phoebe Winchester loves her new life in Raven Creek, WA. When her Aunt Eudora died, Phoebe inherited her house; the Earl’s Study, a bookstore/tea shop; deeds to half the businesses on Main Street; and her aunt’s orange tabby, Bob. Phoebe is eager to add stock to the bookstore, so she sets out to an estate sale and auction in a neighboring town, only to discover that she has a stowaway, Bob. She keeps him in the car while she meets the estate sale coordinator, Madeline Morrow, who seems a little hoity-toity. By the time Phoebe wins the lot of books, Madeline has disappeared and Bob wanders into the room. Phoebe tries to keep him hidden but follows his footprints—bloody footprints—to Madeline’s body, which Bob has discovered. Under police suspicion for Madeline’s murder, Phoebe must investigate to prove that she isn’t a killer. Her nosiness will soon put her in the path of a murderer.
