Daisy Savage finally has everything she wants. A new husband. A bunch of kids. A charming old house.
What she doesn’t want is a dead body.
When a frozen pipe in the basement of her century-old home leads her and her husband downstairs into a newly discovered crawl space, they find a coal chute they didn’t know they had. And a corpse inside of it.
Things become complicated when Daisy … complicated when Daisy realizes she knew the victim. And things get even worse when it becomes increasingly clear that the body was placed there to make Daisy look like the killer.
Against her husband’s advice and her own common sense, Daisy makes it her mission to prove to the denizens of Moose River that she is innocent. But doing so may be more dangerous than she planned.

This book had solid writing, good plotting, dimensional characters, and a decent mystery. Not sure why I had trouble getting through it. Possibly because the main character got on my nerves. Otherwise, no real complaints. I appreciated the strong blended family unit.
Cute story. Enjoyed the simplicity of the storyline. Made for a great beach read.
Slow moving. Couldn’t finish. Boring.
First time read the author, whimsical, page turner wanting to know “who done it”, then all of a sudden, you know, but how to catch the person.
