The Crafty Corpse: 1

Maple Creek, a town as charming as a handmade quilt, is jolted by the discovery of a body in an alley just days before the festive Fourth of July celebrations. Herman, a newcomer with a knack for rubbing residents the wrong way, becomes the titular corpse, and suddenly, everyone's a suspect. From the seemingly innocent young employee who was seen nearby, to the local shop owners Herman was trying to strong-arm, to a mysterious figure with a distinctive bird tattoo, the suspects multiply with every turn. As the idyllic facade of Maple Creek cracks, a gripping whodunit unfolds, revealing hidden motives, long-held secrets, and a killer lurking among familiar faces. Can Lila, Leo, and their sharp-witted son, Legend, unmask the culprit before the town's festive spirit is extinguished forever?
