Book Synopsis: Why is She Dead?
After successfully exposing a powerful criminal empire in
her new hometown of North Carolina, Gretchen, the Scottish expat-turned-author,
is ready to dive into the next chapter of her life. Having navigated the
treacherous waters of amateur sleuthing, she returns to what she hopes will be
a quieter existence—writing the second book in her Editor Series and
rebuilding her life on the picturesque Carolina coast.
But peace is fleeting. When a prominent local woman is found
dead under mysterious circumstances, Gretchen’s instincts tell her that there’s
more to the story than meets the eye. The police are quick to label it an
accident, but Gretchen isn’t so sure—especially when she discovers that the
woman was a key figure in a project that could reshape the town’s future.
As she delves deeper into the investigation, Gretchen
uncovers a web of secrets, lies, and hidden agendas. The victim had
enemies—more than a few—and each of them had a motive to want her out of the
picture. With the stakes higher than ever, Gretchen must once again balance her
roles as an author and a sleuth, all while protecting herself from those who
would do anything to keep their secrets buried.
In Why is She Dead?, Gretchen’s determination to
uncover the truth puts her in the crosshairs of a new and dangerous adversary.
The closer she gets to the truth, the more she realizes that the past has a way
of catching up with you—and that not everyone who seems harmless truly is.

circumstances, the Scottish expat and fledgling author can’t resist diving into
the mystery. What she uncovers is a tangled web of secrets, lies, and dangerous

the line between fiction and reality is thinner than she ever imagined. With
new enemies closing in and old wounds reopening, she must rely on her
instincts—and her trusty dog, Faith—to solve the case before it’s too late.
