Nickeled-and-Dimed to Death: A Devereaux's Dime Store Mystery

In New York Times bestselling author Denise Swanson€s €œslightly zany€* new mystery series, Devereaux Sinclair loves running her old-fashioned store in her small Missouri hometown. If only murder didn€t keep landing on her doorstep€¦

Dev€s five-and-dime may be doing well, but her love life is in turmoil. She€s torn between Deputy U.S. Marshal Jake Del Vecchio, who is on an undercover assignment, and her ex-beau Noah Underwood, the local doctor from a high-society family. So she welcomes the distraction when Elise Whitmore offers her a great deal on antique chocolate molds that would be perfect for her Easter gift baskets. But do the molds actually belong to Elise€s soon-to-be ex-husband? In buying them, has Dev committed a felony?
 
When Elise is found shot to death, the mystery deepens€"and Dev€s good friend Boone, who discovered the body, is taken into custody. With the help of her best buds, Dev must clear Boone€s name and find the real killer. Good thing that when it comes to amateur sleuths, they broke the mold with Dev Sinclair.
