EVERYONE HAS AN ALIBI
A Clean Paranormal Cozy Mystery Stonepeak Pack Mysteries, Book ThreeBy Dane Jones
Length2h 7m
About this audiobook
Book Three of the Stonepeak Pack Mysteries.
Stonepeak’s harvest festival has run for two decades without incident, until a ruthless traveling merchant is found dead at the base of the grain mill’s stairs on the festival’s own opening night. Osric Fenn made enemies everywhere he went, and Poppy Holt quickly finds six people with genuine reason to want him gone. Every single one of them has an alibi. Every single alibi, on close examination, has a small, telling flaw.
What follows is Poppy’s biggest case yet: six suspects, six overlapping stories, a reciprocal cover-up that has nothing to do with murder, and a truth that turns out to be about considerably more than one man’s death. Osric was planning to expose a decades-old wrong that would devastate the whole settlement’s livelihood, and the person who stopped him never meant to become a killer.
This is a genuine, fair-play mystery on a bigger scale than this series has attempted before: real clues, real red herrings, and a culprit whose motive complicates easy judgment right up to the final, difficult ruling.
What readers can expect:
A large-cast, genuinely fair-play whodunit with real clues to follow alongside Poppy
A sympathetic culprit whose motive is communal rather than selfish
Continued growth for Poppy and Garrick, now three cases into their partnership
Clean, closed-door romance with zero explicit content
A restorative resolution that weighs genuine complexity rather than easy judgment
The biggest, most ambitious mystery in the series so far
This book works best for readers already familiar with Poppy and Garrick’s world; if you haven’t yet, Books One and Two are waiting for you.
Grab your copy today and see whether you can spot the real culprit before
Poppy does.
