Will To Live

If you like your cozy village mysteries full of twists, turns, dead ends, and some old and very dead secrets then don't miss reading Will to Live. A stable full of dusty memories. One small dead body. One big secret. The cozy whodunit features Monica Goodwood and Erin O'Malley, owners of Rocking Horse Antiques. They make a disturbing discovery while antique hunting at a deserted estate. The box full of bony secrets certainly wasn't what they expected! There are no clues or suspects and it takes an antique buying trip to Lexington, Kentucky to rattle some cages, and blow old dust off past sins that some people want to forget, and others claim not to remember. Back home in their idyllic village of Coppin's Locks complete with British style pub, tea shop, and trendy boutiques, things are no quieter and just as disturbing. An elderly man is leaving cryptic messages for help, and the disappearance of patients from a hospital has the girls looking into the past and present lives of more than a few suspects. Somebody knows the truth and it's going to require some dirty digging and lots of tough questions to unearth it! This is a cozy tale with a twist! With Monica's boyfriend, attractive detective Patrick Lawson, and Police Chief Van Dyck on hand to assist — and sometimes admonish — Monica and Erin, along with Haggis, the West Highland terrier, poke and pry with the help and hindrance of an assortment of quirky and colorful village characters. Their biggest challenge is solving these mysteries before they both become the next target of an unhinged mind! This cozy novel is book 2 in the Coppin's Lock Mysteries featuring Monica Goodwood and Erin O'Malley. Dee Cohen writes: "They (Monica and Erin) have a passion to find answers and I like the way they analyze situations. There are also lots of great descriptions of places and eccentric people too! I plan on reading more by Lucinda Davis."
