The Circle and the Crow: a Cozy Small Town Murder Mystery Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe | a Gripping Novel Full of Twists, Turns and Romance

When literature professor Danni Solo lands in Oak Hollow for its vibrant Edgar Allan Poe festival, she expects clever lectures and costumed revelers, not a corpse in the town square. The murder rips the mask off Oak Hollow’s community of misfits and eccentrics, where grudges run deeper than the catacombs of Poe’s tales. Partnering — uneasily — with enigmatic Sheriff Darwin Lavery, Danni digs into secrets that the festival’s velvet cloaks can’t hide. With danger lurking in every shadow, she must unravel the truth before the killer turns the page on her.
