Everybody?s got to have a hobby. But some pastimes hide murder in a delightfully crafty rom-com mystery by Amazon Charts bestselling and Edgar Award?nominated author Jess Lourey.

A charitable senior finds her calling making creepily authentic life-size dolls. Call it recreation. But when Mira finds a dead body encased under that painted porcelain, it?s more like murder.

It gets even stranger when Mira?s investigation lands her just where the Battle Lake police chief wants her: in jail. Luckily, Team Mira is on the case. They?re a fierce, if unlikely, force to be reckoned with: one flashy lady mayor and Mira?s scrappy nonagenarian best friend.

They plan to bust Mira out and clear her name. Bad news, though: a bizarrely motivated killer is still on the loose and can?t wait to see Mira all dolled up?to death.
