Please welcome Jill Piscitello & Her New Mystery A Sour Note
Please welcome Jill Piscitello, who has a new cozy mystery to tell us about. You have the floor, Jill.
My new release is A
Sour Note, a cozy mystery. It is the first in the Wild Rose Press
series Music Box Mysteries.
When murder provides a welcome distraction…
On the heels of a public, broken engagement, Maeve Cleary returns to
her childhood home in Hampton Beach, NH. When a dead body turns up behind her
mother’s music school, three old friends land on the suspect list. Licking her
wounds soon takes a back seat to outrunning the paparazzi who spin into a
frenzy, casting her into a cloud of suspicion. Maeve juggles her high school
sweetheart, a cousin with a touch of clairvoyance, a no-nonsense detective, and
an apologetic, two-timing ex-fiancé. Will the negative publicity impact
business at the Music Box— the very place she’d hoped to make a fresh start?
Excerpt: Big Mouth
With his mouth set in a grim line, he
waited.
If anyone else had enough nerve to presume
she owed them an explanation, she would respond with a solid mind your own
business. Instead, the seventeen-year-old still inside her refused to tell him
to get lost. “He was hiding money in his office.” This was one of those times
when learning how to wait a few beats before blurting out inflammatory
information would come in handy. Each second of passing silence decreased her
ability to breathe in the confined space. She turned the ignition and switched
on the air conditioner.
“How do you know?” His volume just above
a whisper, each dragged-out word hung in the air.
“I found it.”
“When were you in his office?” He swiped
at a bead of sweat trickling down the side of his face, then positioned a vent
toward him.
“Last night.” When would she learn to
bite her tongue? Finn’s switch from rapid-fire scolding to slow, deliberate
questioning left her unable to swallow over the sandpaper lump in her throat.
“Where was Vic?”
She stared at the back of the building,
wishing she’d kept her mouth shut. “He’d left for the night.” If she averted
her gaze, she could pretend his eyeballs weren’t bugging out of his head, and
his jaw didn’t need a crane to haul it off his chest.
“You were at the town hall after hours?
Did anyone see you?”
“A custodian opened his door for me.” She
snuck a glance. Sure enough, features contorted in shock and horror replaced
his boy-next-door good looks.
