ADMISSION TO MURDER

Two sleuths. One scandal. And a murder that could ruin everything.

When Maddie Brooke welcomes guests to the Magnolia Blossom Inn, she expects sweet tea, southern charm... and maybe a little gossip.

She does not expect murder.

A summer visit brings Meredith and Sheriff Doug Gardner to Charlottesville with their son Johnny, a top contender for a prestigious UVA baseball scholarship. But when an elite admissions advisor is found dead after a private luncheon with university insiders, Johnny becomes the prime suspect-caught on camera near the scene and tied to damning evidence.

With tensions rising between local authorities and Doug-far outside his jurisdiction-Meredith turns to Maddie for help. Together, the two women must untangle a web of whispered accusations, rival ambitions, and dangerous secrets lurking beneath the surface of UVA's admissions process.

As Maddie follows the money and Meredith fights to clear her son's name, they uncover a scandal far more sinister than anyone imagined-one worth killing to protect.

Now, with reputations, futures, and families on the line, Merry and Maddie must expose the truth... before the wrong person pays the ultimate price.
