Jo Jones has always had a little trouble fitting in. As an #ActuallyAutistic, hyperlexic book editor and divorced New Yorker transplanted into the English countryside, Jo doesn’t know what stands out more: her Americanisms or her autism. But when a painting vanishes and the body of the grounds-keeper turns up on her rug (with three bullets in his back), Jo finds herself in potential danger. She’s also a potential suspect! With the aid of a Welsh antiques dealer, the morose local detective, and the Irish innkeeper’s wife, Jo embarks on a mission to clear herself of blame and find the missing painting, unearthing a slew of secrets about the town—and herself—along the way. And she’ll have to do it all before the killer strikes again…
Dr. BRANDY SCHILLACE (skil-AH-chay) is an autistic author, historian, show-host and editor. Her YouTube show, Peculiar Book Club, features livestream chats with bestselling authors, from Lindsey Fitzharris and Mary Roach to Chuck Wendig and Cory Doctorow. She is (surprise!) hyperlexic, and she spends her time between the US and UK. So far, no bodies on the carpet, however.
