Shakespeare's Counselor (Lily Bard Mysteries‪)‬

From Charlaine Harris, the #1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author behind HBO’s hit series True Blood, NBC’s Midnight, Texas, and Hallmark’s Aurora Teagarden Mysteries, the fifth in a series where horror hides in plain sight …

She’s feeling out a new job as a PT. She’s living with a man she loves. When her hard-won coping strategies leave Jack with a bloody nose, tight-lipped Lily even agrees to try group therapy.

When a potential member is murdered just before their meeting, Lily knows she’s in danger, too.

She can’t go backward. She can’t ignore the threat. With her future on the line, Lily will have to discover for herself who’s worth trusting—and who’s a cold-blooded killer …
