Interior designer Hadley Sutton has an eye for style, an ear for gossip, and a nose for trouble. Hadley couldn’t be happier in Darlington Hills. She’s loving her new town, new friends, and new job staging rooms for photo shoots at a trendy home furnishings company—even though her boss is quick-tempered and rude. Everything seems perfect until Hadley finds a body in her boss’s kitchen and all eyes turn to him as the likely suspect. Faced with the possibility of losing her job if her boss ends up behind bars, she starts asking questions around town in hopes of proving his innocence. But when Hadley’s questions strike a hot nerve with someone, she finds herself dodging escalating threats—all while working furiously to meet deadlines for her company’s first-ever printed catalog, prepping for the town’s annual Flower Festival, and navigating budding friendships with two town flirts, one of whom happens to be her boss’s brother. Pearl White Peril is the second book in the Hadley Home Design Mystery Series. If you like sassy sleuths, enchanting small-town settings, twisty plots, and lighthearted whodunnits with a dash of sweet romance, you’ll love Emily Oberton’s cozy mystery series.
