Whispers in the Orchard

Nell Piper

Welcome to Elmwood Springs-

A picturesque town where the cider is warm, the gossip is juicier than the apple fritters, and the secrets run deeper than the autumn leaves.

Retired librarian Hazel Whitmore expected peace and quiet when she moved into the cozy Elmwood Inn with her opinionated cat, Mr. Darcy. But when a man turns up dead during the annual Harvest Festival-and the clues point toward a decades-old cover-up-Hazel can't resist dusting off her research skills.

With the help of her eccentric neighbor Birdie, a handsome ex, and a few well-timed baked goods, Hazel uncovers hidden journals, tangled family ties, and the long-buried truth behind the Birchfield legacy. But someone in town will do anything to keep the past in the ground.

Because in Maplewood Hollow, some stories weren't meant to be unearthed.
