FOR FANS OF CLUE AND NANCY DREW

Advice columnist Olivia Penn's cozy hometown of Apple Station, Virginia, is buzzing with preparations for the annual fall festival and Halloween parade. Pumpkins, witches, and ghosts line the streets, the leaves are turning, and the crisp autumn air makes for perfect sweater weather. With the spark of a new romance in her life, the season feels more charming than spooky-until a lakeside picnic with a friend puts her in the wrong place at the wrong time.

When a body is discovered amid an algae bloom under mysterious circumstances, long-standing tensions between a local organic farm and a country club resurface, revealing multiple motives for murder. As suspects point fingers, the only reliable witness is a young boy with autism who doesn't speak.

As Olivia searches for the reason the child has linked her to the crime, she uncovers a crucial clue that's been hiding in plain sight. But when an unexpected encounter leads to a startling revelation, she's forced to improvise a risky plan to stop the killer. With time running out, justice-and her life-depend on quick thinking and a leap of faith.

Can Olivia unmask the killer before the evidence vanishes? Or will she become the next victim and be silenced forever?
