Watered Down Death: A Small Town Hiding Gruesome Secrets! (Coppin's Locks Mystery Series, #1) / Coppin's Locks Mystery Series (ePub)

This cozy whodunit finds the elderly Dr. Bill Whitehall dead in the churning waters of the mill at the bottom of his garden in Coppin's Locks. Was it suicide or is there a killer in the idyllic small village of Coppin's Locks?
Monica Goodwood and her business partner, Erin O'Malley, owners of Rocking Horse Antiques, dive into discovering the truth about the demise of the old curmudgeon, a man whose best bedside manner was reserved for animals in need and not people in pain.
On the home front Monica isn't sure that she's ready to give up her single life to the divine Patrick while her Mother Joyce means well but manages to meddle in her business affairs.
Coppin's Locks with its British style pub, cozy tea shop, trendy boutiques and colorful characters is abuzz with curiosity. Who wanted the grumpy old man dead? Was it one of the locals, who all seem to have alibis tinged with lies, or is the death linked to the past with hidden details kept secret for decades? And why does the old black and white photograph found in a bureau seem so important to somebody?
At least one person in town knows the truth, but nobody is talking! And, the biggest fear in this quiet backwater is, will the killer strike again?
