Hiking Sticks, Hawks, and Homicide

Martha Sloane had no intention of staying in the hard-to-reach village of Riley Creek, Tennesseeuntil she finds she is the new owner of the struggling Birds 'n' Beans shop. Now, in the first of a brand-new series, she learns that running a business can be murder.

When Martha Sloane arrives in Riley Creek following the death of her beloved Aunt Lorna, she naively expects a week to be enough to sort everything out and return to her demanding job in Boston. What she doesn't expect is to find the dead body of a local ne'er-do-well in her aunt's backyard. Buoyed by Riley Creek's eccentric inhabitants, Martha sets out to learn the Birds 'n' Beans biz, enjoy some local hiking and bird watching, and figure out her future. But when police suspect Aunt Lorna of being connected to the murder, Martha launches her own investigation. She's soon tangled in a web of debt, deceit, and betrayal. Even with the help of the Riley Creek gang, she'll have to keep her balance to expose a killer who means business.
