Publisher Description
First book in the four book USA Today bestselling Magnolia Steele Mystery series by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author, Denise Grover Swank.
Ten years ago, Magnolia Steele fled Franklin, Tennessee after an incident that left her with hazy memories and a horror of the place where she had been born and bred. Though her abrupt departure destroyed most of her relationships, she vowed never to return . . . until she has no choice. When Magnolia’s breakout acting role in a Broadway musical ends in disgrace, there’s only one place she can go.
Magnolia reluctantly agrees to help her mother’s catering company at a party for a country music star, only to find herself face-to-face with a sleazy music agent from her past. After a very public spat, Magnolia not only finds him dead but herself center stage in the police’s investigation. Now she must scramble to prove her innocence, relying on the help of acquaintances old and new.
But the longer Magnolia stays in Franklin, the more she remembers about the incident that chased her away. The past might not be finished with her yet, and what she doesn’t remember could be her biggest danger.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The first book in American author Denise Grover Swank’s mystery series introduces an intriguing heroine: broke, beautiful Magnolia Steele, who returns home to a small Tennessee town after leaving abruptly 10 years before. The novel reminded us a bit of Nashville—which we love—and we really enjoyed how the story twists from a mother-daughter drama into a suspenseful murder mystery. We look forward to following the rest of Magnolia’s adventures.

Ahhh love Maggie Mae :) as much as I love Rose ... Great book D.G.S X
Great read! Fantastic characters. Can't wait for the next one
Loved this book!!!! Centre Stage is a must read!!!
I am a huge fan of the Rose Gardner series. I never thought I would get hooked on a series as much again, but I cannot wait for book number two from this series. Magnolia is a great character and I cannot wait to see where her story goes.
This book had a great plot, with enough twist and turns to keep you hooked. All the characters were well written and the main character magnolia is refreshing, strong but also vulnerable at the same time.
I love this author and read most of her books. I was feeling so sad that the Rose Gardner series is ending soon but this book has cheered me up as I have a new series that I am now equally addicted too.
