When recently retired Ellen Douglas discovers a dead woman beneath a fallen tree in her beloved hometown park, she's certain it's a tragic accident—until the police chief's careful questions suggest otherwise. What begins as idle curiosity at the local diner quickly becomes a determined investigation, drawing on thirty years of experience uncovering hidden truths. As Ellen asks the questions no one else will, she uncovers a web of secrets that reaches far beyond her quiet Midwestern town, all while navigating new friendships, unexpected romance, and the surprising discovery that reinvention at fifty might just be the perfect time to solve a murder.
