Today's Free Feature: A Dash of Murder

Trapped by a storm. Suspected of murder. Saved by a dog with nowhere else to go.

Ex-hotel accountant Sylvia Bennett skids into the wrong inn on the worst night. Over thyme-scented stew, Grandma Jo's laughter draws stranded guests together. The lobby becomes a makeshift family. And by morning, the innkeeper Harris is dead.

Lucky, the victim's limping spaniel, decides she's his person—whether she's ready or not.

When someone hides an oil-stained wrench in Sylvia's locker, the same tight-knit town is ready to believe the worst about the outsider.

Her trained eye catches what others miss: the pointed silences when someone says Harris, the florist's grief she can't quite hide, the desk clerk who flinched at his presence. Everyone had a motive.

Under Lucky's steady gaze, Sylvia starts to wonder if she can trust the intuition she's spent years doubting.

The detective's filing charges. Lucky—the only witness—can't speak.

Sylvia must follow a trail of oil and silences before she loses her freedom, her future, and the spaniel who chose her first.
