Forgotten Letters

The Ozarks Cozy Mystery Series

In the quiet town of Clover, Missouri, some secrets are worth killing for.

When beloved mailman Art Henley is found murdered in his own home, antique shop owner and amateur sleuth Della Fox is drawn into another deadly mystery. Art's house has been ransacked and his personal letters scattered like confetti, but what was the killer desperately searching for?

The answer lies hidden in Art's basement: two unopened letters from Lydia Bland, the young woman who vanished from Clover decades ago. One letter is addressed to her family, the other to Tommy Denton, and both reveal shocking secrets that someone has been willing to kill to keep buried.

As Della digs deeper into Lydia's disappearance, she uncovers a web of threats, forbidden love, and a pregnancy that changed everything. But when the investigation takes a dangerous turn, Della realizes that whoever forced Lydia to flee all those years ago is still pulling strings in Clover, and they'll stop at nothing to keep the past buried.

With the help of Sheriff Jared Metcalf, Della must race to uncover the truth before more lives are lost. But in a town where everyone has secrets and the powerful protect their own, some letters were never meant to be delivered and some truths come with a deadly price.
