Death Pays the Rose Rent marks the start of a delightful new mystery series featuring Tori Miracle - New York City crime reporter turned novelist - and the charming setting of Lickin Creek, a Civil War town nestled in the heart of Pennsylvania's Amish country. When Tori accepts an invitation from her dearest friend, Alice-Ann, and her husband, Richard, to visit them in Lickin Creek, she gladly leaves behind the hustle and bustle of New York City for some much-needed rest and relaxation. Yet the intended vacation quickly becomes a by-the-seat-of-the-pants lesson in sleuthing - and survival. Upon her arrival, the town is buzzing with preparations for Rose Rent Day, an annual celebration honoring the town founder who donated land to the churches for a most unusual rent: one red rose. Though the tradition has lived on for decades, this year it is broken when the guest of honor turns up dead. Though at first no one suspects foul play, Tori has reason to believe otherwise. Searching for clues in a town so small that everyone is a suspect, Tori finds love on the run with a distractingly handsome police detective who guides her through the grand castles and underground caves which hold the closely guarded secrets of this historic town. As Tori gets closer to the truth, the death toll mounts . . . until she becomes the target of a killer obsessed with keeping Lickin Creek's past buried - forever.
