Readers will follow Jo and her gospel music-singing family, as they scramble to prepare a new home for the happy couple while grasping with the murder of a loved family country doctor. Intertwined with his death are old mysteries that involve Jo’s fiancée’s family. Hidden treasures and old sins are revealed as is a shocking twist that ties in with the doctor’s murder, uncovering past family secrets. Will the murder mystery be solved before the murderer strikes again? Follow Jo and her family as they find the answers to old and new mysteries.
