Poisoned By Gossip

One sip. One death. One woman everyone wants to blame.

Faye Kellerman's cozy mountain tea shop was supposed to be her fresh start after widowhood—until her most difficult customer drops dead at table four, and the entire village decides Faye is guilty. When prominent art collector Margaret Hollis collapses during afternoon service, the whispers begin immediately. After all, everyone heard Faye's public argument with Margaret about stolen family recipes. Everyone knows she had motive.

But in Pinewood Hollow, Colorado, where everyone knows everyone's business, the truth is buried under decades of bitter feuds and carefully guarded secrets. With her reputation in tatters and the autumn festival—her biggest revenue event—just weeks away, Faye has no choice but to investigate. What she uncovers is far darker than recipe theft: a family torn apart by greed, a two-million-dollar painting, and someone willing to kill to keep the past hidden.

When her key witness ends up in the hospital after a suspicious hit-and-run, Faye realizes she's not just fighting for her business anymore. She's fighting for her life. And the poison that killed Margaret might not be the only deadly secret lurking in this charming small town.
