Silence Says the Most

A heartwarming cozy mystery that celebrates the connections of friends and family with a Gilmore Girls vibe.



Five days before Halloween, fall turns frightful in Apple Station when a child's drawing entangles Olivia in a murder at a park lake.



Olivia's hometown is gearing up for its annual Halloween festival, and pumpkins, corn mazes, and autumn vibes are everywhere. All is cozy in the crisp fall air as excitement builds for the costume parade on Friday. A casual Monday lakeside picnic lunch with her forever friend, though, sets off a chain of events that catches Olivia in the wrong place at the wrong time.



When a body is discovered amid an algae bloom under mysterious circumstances, everyone points fingers, but one among them is not telling the truth. The only apparent witness to the crime is a child who doesn't speak. Motives abound, suspects are plenty, and it's up to Olivia to discover why the child has implicated her as the key to solving the murder.



Can Olivia unmask the killer before the endangered evidence vanishes, and she becomes the next victim?



If you like small town, cozy mysteries with heart and humor, a charming cast of characters, and a twisty plot that celebrates the connections of friends and family, you'll love Silence Says the Most, the second book in The Olivia Penn Mystery Series.
