Be careful what you wish for…

After a blissful honeymoon, Molly and Liam Fitzgerald are eager to settle into their new life together in Dooley. However, their plans for a peaceful start to married life are abruptly interrupted when Alaina Kincaid bursts into The Book Nook, panic etched on her face. Her sister, Enya Ward, has been missing for two agonizing weeks, and time is running out.

Molly’s pulse quickens as the memory of her troubling wish at the Wishing Well—an enchanting gift from her mischievous leprechaun friend, Finn—haunts her. Could her playful desire for Enya to vanish inadvertently unleashed a dark fate? With guilt weighing heavily on her heart, Molly is pulled into another perplexing mystery.

To stave off her worries, Molly throws herself into the preparations for the highly anticipated Dooley Book Fair, an exciting event co-sponsored by Walsh Publishing. The festival promises book signings, engaging readings, and a rare opportunity for fans to meet literary luminaries. But just as Molly intends to immerse herself in the festivities, disaster strikes. Best-selling author Georgia Gaffner disappears mere hours before her keynote speech.

As the pressure mounts and tensions rise, the stakes increase when a body is discovered on the fairgrounds, sending shockwaves through the community. With Liam’s involvement hindered by a conflict of interest, it falls to Molly and her intrepid Snoop Group to untangle the web of secrets surrounding the book fair, and when a shocking revelation has them racing against time, they must navigate layers of deception and discern friend from foe, all while the killer lurks closer than they realize.

Will Molly decipher the chilling connections between her wish and the fresh string of chaos? Can she salvage the book fair and protect her beloved hometown from descending into turmoil? “Secrets, Lies and Murder” weaves a spellbinding tale of unforeseen consequences, fate, and the enduring bonds of community, proving that desperation and determination can lead to both delightful discoveries and deadly danger.
