What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

From the author of Coop Knows the Scoop and The Mystery of the Radcliffe Riddle comes a quirky whodunnit that explores friendship, small town secrets, and a twisty mystery that will keep readers guessing.In the small, southern town of Everson, goats can run for mayor, the mail is always late, and nothing all that bad ever happens. That is, until thirteen-year-old Tucker finds Miss Geraldine dead at the bottom of her stairs. At first glance, it looks like an accident. But Tucker has always had a knack for noticing details that others overlook, and the details surrounding Miss Geraldine’s death just aren’t adding up.Miss Geraldine was miserable and mean. Miss Geraldine was murdered.The whole town seems to have reason to want her dead, which makes Tucker’s search for the truth nearly impossible. The more he investigates for clues, the more danger he finds himself in, and the more he realizes that maybe Everson was never as safe as he once thought it was. Anyone could be the killer, and in a small town that loves to gossip, if Tucker isn’t careful, he could be the next one to have an “accident”.
