The mysteries enjoyed in books come to life, threatening four businesses. Amber's new bookshop and tearoom draws rare book collectors, but when one ends up dead in the mystery section, the shop's future is questionable. Lilly's pirate themed bookshop fits right into Harbor Inn, Maine, but she never expected to find a young pirate dead on her shop's floor. Abby opens Secret Passages Bookshop in a Wyoming mountain town, not realizing her historic building held a real secret passage and a missing teenager. Kelly moves to Florida and frequents the Bayside Books and Reading Room, where she is strangely attracted to the owner--who is suspected of killing his wife. Can the store owners and their patrons solve the mysteries before their businesses go under?
