Someone in the town of Marion is sitting on a secret worth killing for.
When Cal Walker returns to Marion, a small town nestled in the Cascade Mountains, he’s just trying to settle family affairs and leave quietly. But when a local developer turns up dead and a reformed criminal vanishes without a trace, Cal is pulled into an investigation that threatens to unravel the town’s carefully hidden past.
Teaming up with Officer Inga Wells, Cal uncovers whispers of a chilling Cold War–era artifact as dangerous as anything ever devised. As more clues emerge—secret phone calls and tripwires, dangerous, long-forgotten laboratories and exotic poisons—Cal is entangled in a mystery where the past never stays buried.
With a blend of suspense, emotional depth, and wry humor, *Of Hearts and Murder* is a character-driven mystery that explores love, legacy, and the price of second chances.
Fans of Richard Osman and Louise Penny will love this cozy mystery!
