Book Two in The Kate Lawrence Mysteries: Small-town gossip can be murder, especially when a ruthless blackmailer is involved. As the Autumn Festival gets under way in Old Wethersfield, reluctant amateur sleuth Kate Lawrence and her partner Margo race to discover the truth before a local business owner is unjustly convicted of murder, or even more unthinkably, Kate's daughter falls under suspicion. Kate's romance hits the rocky shoals of culture shock, Margo is caught up in an unlikely romance of her own, and Emma is intrigued by a man in uniform. Can Kate identify the murderer in time, or will someone's slip of the tongue make her the next murder on Old Main Street?
