**In the second page-turning novel in the Silver Springs Mysteries, within Fall's beauty lurks deadly deception...** Laura Evans has finally found her rhythm in the charming Vermont town of Silver Springs. Managing the General Store café feels like a world away from her high-pressure Boston restaurant career, and she's building genuine friendships with locals like Evelyn, her wise neighbor, and Izzy, the enthusiastic young man who works at Goldenleaf Apple Farm and lights up every room he enters. But Laura's peaceful new life shatters when Vernon Reed, an apple farmer, is found murdered in his garage with a bung hammer—a tool used in cider production. And the weapon turns up covered in Izzy's fingerprints along with one of his distinctive handmade bracelets at the crime scene. But Laura knows the gentle soul who welcomed her to town could never commit murder. Determined to clear Izzy's name, Laura teams up with Evelyn and her café colleague Jasmine to investigate Vernon's final months. But the killer will stop at nothing to protect their carefully constructed lies... *This engaging book serves up the perfect blend of mystery and comfort. Every clue unfolds at just the right place, and justice is as satisfying as a refreshing glass of sweet cider.*
