A Clean Paranormal Cozy MysteryBy Dane JonesLength2h 7m
About this audiobook
Book Four of the Stonepeak Pack Mysteries.
Poppy Holt’s small notebook holds three years of careful case notes: confessions, alibis, private truths trusted to her across three prior investigations. When it vanishes from her own store during a busy afternoon, she assumes simple misplacement, until pieces of its contents start surfacing in troubling ways. A blackmail letter citing details only her notebook could contain. A frame job against an innocent apprentice, engineered to mirror her very first case with unsettling precision.
Poppy’s own trusted methods have become someone else’s weapon, and clearing this case means confronting an uncomfortable truth about the private confidences she’s collected across three books, and who might be desperate enough, or cruel enough, to misuse them.
What she finds is two very different people behind the same theft: a young woman failed by a fraudulent moneylender for years, driven to a desperate act of her own, and someone else entirely who saw an opportunity for genuine, calculated cruelty in what she’d left exposed. This is Poppy’s most personal case yet, testing not just her investigative skill but her own responsibility to the people who’ve trusted her with the truth.
What readers can expect:
A genuine, fair-play mystery with the detective’s own methods turned into the central puzzle
Two distinct culprits, one sympathetic and desperate, one genuinely calculating
Continued growth for Poppy, Garrick, and the whole Stonepeak community
Clean, closed-door romance with zero explicit content
Proportionate justice, restorative for one culprit and considerably harsher for the other
The most personally consequential case in the series so far
This book works best for readers already following Poppy’s journey; if you’re new here, Books One through Three are waiting for you.
