Maps, Mockingbirds, and Misdeeds

Dogwood trees are blooming, migrating birds are arriving, and spring has finally made it to the village of Riley Creek, Tennessee. Martha Sloane, owner of Birds ‘n’ Beans coffee and birding shop and recently-elected President of the Retailers’ Collective, are preparing to host the First Annual Nature Writers’ Retreat. Feathers are ruffled when the keynote speaker goes belly up, the murder is pinned on one of Martha’s BFFs, and Martha is pressed back into service to solve the case. Can Martha enlist Mother Nature’s help to track down the killer and spring her gal pal before Mary Jane is sent to the slammer for good?
