You know that feeling when a book just hugs you?
The Disappearing Box and Other Keepsakes is three cozy mysteries in one. No murders. Just secrets, hidden compartments, and the quiet magic of things lost—then found.
In a London bakery, a pocketwatch stops time every day at 4pm. In Charleston, a wedding veil reveals a silent film star’s forbidden love. In rural Japan, a camphor-wood box carries an apology seventy years late.
When three women discover hidden spots in their homes, each finds a relic… then places something dear inside. And it vanishes.
Spellbinding. Hopeful. Unforgettable.

Mary Howard writes dark romance from her candlelit farmhouse in upstate New York, where six black cats serve as judgmental beta readers. A former crime journalist turned full-time purveyor of wickedness, Mary doesn't just explore the shadows—she lives there. Her stories blur obsession with devotion, control with surrender, and monstrosity with love. She believes every broken character deserves a chance to break someone else beautifully. When not typing furiously past midnight, Mary is probably plotting your next favorite morally gray antihero. Warning: her happily-ever-afters come with a body count.View all by Mary Howard
