The Alpaca Who Wouldn't Stop Staring at the Barn
A Cozy Farm Animal MysteryBy Winifred BeckettLength8h 25m
About this audiobook
One stubborn alpaca. One locked stall. One small town that buried the truth. Nora Quinn has a Manhattan apartment to get back to, a career on hold, and a shambolic Connecticut alpaca farm she inherited from her late aunt and fully intends to sell. Then Perpetua, a bottle-raised female with a stare that could stop traffic, refuses to eat, refuses to sleep, and refuses to look anywhere but a padlocked stall in the old barn. When Nora finally pries it open, she finds a hidden duffel, a stolen heirloom, and a file of letters proving Aunt Sylvie spent her last months quietly investigating the murder this town agreed to forget. Now the neighbors are watching. The sheriff has questions. A developer is circling Windmere with a checkbook and a smile. And somewhere close, someone who got away with murder a decade ago wants Nora gone before she learns to read her animals, her aunt's notes, or the valley's silences. Some inheritances are land. Some are debts. Nora's is a ten-year-old lie, and the only witness left is a herd animal who will not stop staring.
