In the captivating tale of Murder with a Terrace View, siblings Molly and Kevin Harrington transform their inherited ancestral home into a thriving bed and breakfast. Their peaceful retreat is shattered when Aubrey Rhodes, a local celebrity author, is found dead on his room's terrace after a successful book launch at their B&B.

The mysterious death of Aubrey sends the Harringtons into a vortex of suspicion and intrigue. With only a champagne bottle, two crystal flutes, and his latest novel as clues, the list of suspects expands, including guests and household members of the B&B. The question arises: Was it a spurned lover, an envious peer, or someone with a more sinister motive?

As the enigma deepens, Molly finds herself entwined in the investigation, led by Detective Tony Shannon. Her quest for truth leads her to Aubrey's recent book, a fictionalized narrative of her family's history during the Prohibition Era. Could Aubrey's demise be connected to a long-concealed family secret?

The Harrington's B&B faces challenges with canceled reservations and eerie lights in the nearby woods. The unexpected purchase of the neighboring farm by Brad Metzner, intending to build a subdivision, further disrupts their tranquil haven.

As Molly unravels the investigation's complexities, she finds herself growing closer to Detective Shannon, adding a romantic twist to this thrilling narrative. Will the Harringtons uncover the truth behind Aubrey's murder? Can they salvage their B&B from impending threats? What role does the spectral Elnora play in this enthralling mystery?

Murder with a Terrace View is an engaging blend of mystery, romance, and a hint of the paranormal. It's a cozy whodunit that will keep you on your toes till the very end.
