Silence is golden …unless you’re permanently hushed up.
When Lillian Johnson was found dead one hot summer day, no one in the town of Bradley, North Carolina was all that surprised. Lillian had always talked about the trials of her various health problems and was sure to share with everyone exactly how much she suffered.
The townspeople were only slightly more surprised to discover that Lillian had been murdered. That’s because Lillian, like most folks, had a dark side. And a fair number of people had experienced this dark side.
Myrtle Clover, octogenarian sleuth and intrepid reporter, investigates Lillian’s death to discover precisely who hushed her up. . . before someone else is permanently silenced.

Chapter One
“It’s no fun visiting someone who’s asleep,” said Myrtle in a reprimanding tone.
Her friend Miles immediately jerked his head up off his chest and looked abashed. “Sorry,” he mumbled. “I haven’t been sleeping well lately.”
“Have you ever slept well, or is your insomnia a later-in-life thing?” asked Myrtle.
Miles sighed. “Believe it or not, there was a time when I slept like the dead. Now I’m on this bizarre sleep schedule. It could have something to do with people visiting me in the middle of the night,” he said, giving Myrtle a sideways glance.
Myrtle frowned at him. “I only knock on your door when it’s clear you’re awake. If I see a light on, I know I’m not the only one who’s up for the day at 3:30.”
