This book is the first in a new series (The Medlar Mysteries) and the debut attempt at mystery writing for author Jude Deveraux. When Kate moves to Lachlan, Florida to begin her work as a Real Estate agent, she has no idea what the secrets are harbored deep beneath the town's surface. She moves in with her Aunt Sara, who is nothing like her mother led Kate to believe, and gets to know a town local boy, Jack, who is also living under Aunt Sara's roof.
When two skeletons are found on a property Jack owns, the unlikely trio spiral down a windy road of mystery, secrets and long buried lies. Will the three be able to handle solving a 20 year old mystery?
