Murder’s never on the listing sheet… until it is. When real estate agent Lily Sprayberry agreed to list the charming but cluttered Victorian on Sycamore Lane, she expected a few hiccups—like wrangling heirloom china and gently dodging the family’s feud over a vintage Elvis lamp. What she didn’t expect? A dead body sprawled across the fainting couch during the estate sale. The sheriff—her husband, Dylan—thinks it was a tragic accident. But Lily knows antiques don’t kill people. People kill people. And in a town like Bramblett, where gossip travels faster than sweet tea spills, it doesn’t take long for suspects to surface like weeds after a summer storm. From bitter heirs and nosy neighbors to a rival agent who seems just a little too interested in her listing, Lily’s got her hands full juggling buyers, secrets, and a murderer who’s far from done. Can she solve the case before another piece of Bramblett’s history is lost—or worse, before she becomes the next item marked “sold”? If you like small-town secrets, quirky Southern charm, and a heroine who won’t back down, you’ll love this Lily Sprayberry mystery!
