The InBetween
A wall with secrets. A bookstore with history. A mystery that refuses to stay buried.
Darcy Sweet loves her cozy little bookstore in the heart of Misty Hollow, but after years of wear and tear, it is time for an upgrade.
While painting the walls she discovers a strange bulge that has been hidden behind a bookshelf for many years, maybe even longer than the bookstore has existed.
When she touches the bulge she is overcome with a vision of someone desperately trying to claw their way out.
She enlists Jon's help in cutting away the section of wall and to their horror they discover a skeleton wedged inside the space between walls.
Darcy, along with Jon, investigates to uncover the truth behind the skeleton's identity.
They soon discover he was likely murdered many decades ago and that the killer would have once lived in Misty Hollow.
But how did he end up inside the bookstore's wall?
Will they be able to uncover the truth behind the mystery in the wall, or has too much time passed to find out what happened?

This is a 3.5 🌟 read rounded ⬆️ to 4 🌟.
This novella threw me more than a little! The last time I read a Darcy Sweet book she was in her 20's/30's ..... and now she's nearly 50! Although to be fair I have missed a few books.
