When Cami Bennett returns to Azalea Creek after 22 years away, she expects a quieter life managing the town library. Instead, the annual Peach Festival opens with the murder of Evelyn Mercer, the powerful woman whose family has shaped the town for generations.

When evidence points toward Cami's closest friend, Renee, Cami refuses to accept the obvious conclusion. Her search for answers leads her from sealed library archives to forgotten property records, stolen family recipes, and a secret passage beneath the courthouse.

The deeper Cami digs, the more she realizes Evelyn uncovered something worth killing to protect. Behind Azalea Creek's peach sweet charm lies a history of betrayal, blackmail, and stolen legacies.

With the real killer closing in and someone she loves in danger, Cami must uncover the truth before another secret is buried forever.

Murder Beneath the Peach Lights is the first book in the Azalea Creek After Dark Mysteries series, featuring a mature amateur sleuth, Southern small town secrets, longtime friendships, and a second chance at love.
