No Egrets. An Empty-nesters Cozy Mystery, book 3 - Jen Dodrill

A clean, humorous cozy mystery filled with small-town secrets, amateur sleuthing, quirky characters, and plenty of feathered charm.

The birds have disappeared. Then someone turns up dead.

Peg Howard hoped life in Pensacola would finally settle down. Instead, Stone Creek Cove's beloved egrets vanish from the local rookery, sparking rumors, accusations, and more than a little small-town chaos.

When Peg joins the search alongside her sharp-as-a-tack mother-in-law, Hazel, the mystery takes a deadly turn after they uncover a body connected to the missing birds. Now Peg is tangled in a web of shady deals, buried grudges, and secrets someone will do anything to protect.

Between caring for her energetic new puppy, navigating two very different men competing for her attention, and trying not to become the town's unofficial detective, Peg has enough on her plate already. But when the threats start feeling personal, walking away is no longer an option.

In Stone Creek Cove, everyone knows everyone-and that makes finding a killer even more dangerous.

Perfect for fans of:

Set against the charming Gulf Coast backdrop, No Egrets delivers humor, heart, and twists that will keep you guessing. In this lively third installment, Peg discovers that in a town full of friendly faces and buried secrets, the truth can be far more dangerous than anyone expected.
