The Madres Deal
- Price
- $17.99
Shae Barcola has spent decades hiding a strange gift: anyone within a few feet of her starts spilling their deepest secrets. Newly separated and short on money, she agrees to help a real estate mogul find his missing daughter. What begins as a favor becomes a dangerous investigation into a suspicious death, a crooked ski-resort development, and a stalker—forcing Shae to decide who she really is. A warm, wry, clean mystery with an unlikely heroine over fifty.
- A genuinely fresh premise: a woman whose mere presence forces everyone to confess—she can't turn it off, and it's ruined her ability to get close to anyone.
- A middle-aged, 'frumpy,' self-deprecating heroine is a refreshing antidote to the usual glamorous sleuth.
- Completely clean content with warm faith undertones—safe for the whole market.
- Atmospheric snowy Wyoming/Colorado setting during the Christmas season.
“In my experience, the truth isn't a bad thing. It's just that not everyone's ready for it.”
Perfect for a reader who loves clean, character-driven cozy mysteries with an unglamorous, relatable heroine over fifty and a warm marriage subplot—no graphic content or profanity.
