Morning Glory Circle
by Pamela Grandstaff
What if Rose Hill's most vicious gossip had access to the deepest secrets of the town's most prominent citizens? Police
Chief Scott Gordon offered Margie Estep a deal: if she quit her job at
the post office and helped her invalid mother move into a nursing home,
he would not arrest her for mail-tampering and embezzling. This deal may
have saved her mother, but it left Margie desperate for money and
revenge. After mailing several malicious letters Margie has
disappeared, and it's up to Scott to find out if one of her blackmail
victims made that disappearance permanent. Maggie Fitzpatrick is also
doing some investigating, despite Scott’s disapproval. The list of
suspects grows longer as Margie's poison pen pals are revealed. When
Scott follows a hunch that leads him closer to the killer, he also risks
becoming the next victim.
