When the town council hires Chloe Abbington’s close friend, famous wall muralist Lana Easton, to paint a mural advertising the return of the floating amphitheater, not everyone in Whisper Cove is happy about the theater or Lana. Naysayers think the noise from concerts and visitors will disrupt their quiet community. It doesn’t help that a lot of money taken from the town’s budget is being used to pay the muralist for her services. The mood turns even more grim when Lana is found dead, and since Chloe was there alone to discover her body, that makes her the prime suspect.

Before Chloe finds herself painted into a corner as the killer, she and sister Izzie hurry to solve the case and find the real criminal. The suspect list grows to include Lana’s boyfriend and her intern, as well as a couple of local residents. The task is a tall order for the sisters, and it doesn’t help that the detective on the case is someone who doesn’t seem to care for Chloe or her interference. Clues about Lana’s past surface and point to more than one suspect. The challenge will be to decide which one is the real killer.

PUCKING WITH THE ENEMY Devlin Mafia, Book Two by @author.samantha.barrett

‼️Coming Soon

BLURB

The enemy you love is always the most dangerous one.

Some people are born into war. I was born into the lie that started one. A year locked away. A family built on corruption. A brother who let me take the fall. I came back to Stormsend for one reason. Destruction. Xaden Devlin wants me dead. He has every reason, every opportunity and zero hesitation. So why am I still breathing? That question has one answer and it terrifies me more than his hands around my throat ever could. Because somewhere between the threats, the darkness and the secrets neither of us can outrun… He chose me. And now we are standing on opposite sides of a war that will destroy us both, carrying a secret that changes everything, surrounded by enemies wearing the faces of people we once trusted. One of us won't survive this. I'm starting to think it might be me. “Half of what you hear… All of what you see… Watch carefully, Tink.”
