Southern Secrets Mysteries, a new series by Carol Light.

The first book, Deadly Inheritance, will be released March 19, 2025.  Here's a preview!

The secrets in this south Arkansas town run deep and dangerous Merritt Quinn is stunned to learn that, to inherit a sizeable estate, she must discover the truth about her own mother’s death. Aunt Mary left a single clue: Ernie knows. But Merritt arrives in Crossroads to discover local attorney Ernie Crowell bludgeoned in his office. The murder is the first test for new police chief Tim Birch, and he’s determined to prove himself worthy of the promotion. His prime suspects are members of two feuding families who covet Merritt’s land. But Ernie had an active caseload that included several dissatisfied clients, and Tim must also deal with fallout from a newspaper article exposing possible criminal actions by the company that employs most of the townspeople. The mayor wants answers—now. As Merritt researches her family’s past, she uncovers dangerous secrets. The truth will change her life—and Crossroads— forever, but first she must survive a killer intent on keeping past crimes buried.
