Gossip columnists love a bold-faced nameâbut âMiss Newsyâ at Greyborne Harborâs local paper seems to specialize in bald-faced lies. Sheâs pointed a finger of suspicion at Addie after librarian June Winslow never makes it home from a book club meeting. And when Juneâs found at the bottom of a steep flight of stairs, Addieâs not only dealing with a busybody, but a dead body. Itâs a good thing the guy sheâs dating is the police chief.

Now she just has to hunt down the clues before she becomes a buried treasure herself . . .
