Set in a peaceful community where everyone knows each other, this small town cozy mystery with ghosts introduces readers to The Reading Nook, a beloved bookstore with a history as layered as the shelves lining its walls.

With the help of local records and her growing understanding of the town's history, she steps into a gentle paranormal cozy mystery fiction where knowledge, patience, and observation matter more than danger or fear.
