A Historic North Carolina Home Renovation Turns Fatal in This Do-It-Yourself Cozy Mystery

When former Boston fashion designer Avery Baker inherits her late aunt's dilapidated Victorian home in Waterbridge, North Carolina, she decides to trade high fashion for home renovation. Partnering with handsome local contractor Derek Ellis to restore the historic property, Avery uncovers hidden wall cavities containing evidence linked to a missing university professor.

As Avery unearths secret town histories and dark family grudges embedded in the home's architecture, a local killer strikes to prevent the house from revealing its deadliest secrets.
