Description

Welcome to Bookend Bay where the coffee is spiced, the ghosts are cheeky, and midlife is murder.

The ghost haunting Quinn Delaney is bossy, shameless, and—awkwardly—her husband's mistress.

Quinn has spent decades raising her kids and setting her own dreams aside. Excited to start a new chapter in life, she's finally opening her dream café in the small-town of Bookend Bay.

Then Beverly Foster arrives with a to-do list and no patience for Quinn's pushback.

Who wouldn't push back? Beverly is a ghost!

When police zero in on Quinn's husband as a suspect in Beverly's murder, Quinn faces an impossible problem. The ghost of her husband's mistress has evidence that could clear him, but she'll only hand it over if Quinn does exactly what she says.

And Quinn isn't so sure he's worth saving.

With her best friend by her side, she has to solve a murder, outwit a conniving ghost, and get Break Thyme open—all before her life completely unravels.

Quinn didn't know how much courage starting over would take. She's about to find out.

A warmly funny cozy mystery about second chances, stubborn ghosts, and the kind of small-town secrets that don't stay buried.
