Description

Valentine's Day is approaching in northern California's Lighthouse Cove, the charming seaside town of Victorian homes where Shannon Hammer runs her own construction and restoration business. When Shannon's elderly neighbor Jesse Hennessey doesn't make his daily appearance in the local diner, she goes next door to check on him, only to discover him dead on his couch, the victim of an apparent heart attack. But his house has been ransacked; clearly, someone was looking for something. Shannon scoffs at the suggestion it could be the priceless necklace he claimed to have retrieved from a sunken Spanish galleon. Jesse was always telling tall tales Shannon never believed--that he had a beautiful girlfriend, for example, and that he trained the first team of modern day Navy SEALS. But Jesse's death is officially declared a homicide. And when charming Althea Tannis shows up at the funeral, claiming to have been Jesse's lover, and pawnshop owner "Cuckoo" Clemens says Jesse showed him the fabled necklace, Shannon begins to rethink Jesse's boasts. Shannon's best friend Jane was Jesse's niece and is his heir, and apparently, she had the strongest motive for murder. So before police chief Eric Jensen can put together a case against Jane, Shannon decides to find the killer herself... Don't miss Framed For Murder, a Hallmark Movies & Mystery Original starring Jewel, based on This Old Homicide-the second novel inthe New York Times bestselling Fixer-Upper Mystery series! Valentine's Day is approaching, and while contractor Shannon Hammer is delighted to be friends with not one but two handsome men, not everyone in Lighthouse Cove, California, is feeling the love. After her elderly neighbor Jesse Hennessey fails to make his daily appearance at the local diner, Shannon swings by his place to check on him. Not only does she find Jesse dead-of an apparent heart attack-but she also realizes that his home has been ransacked. Someone suggests that a thief was searching for a priceless necklace Jesse claimed to have retrieved from a capsized sailing ship, but Shannon doesn't believe it. Everyone knows Jesse had a penchant for constructing tall tales-like the one about him having a hot new girlfriend. But his death is soon ruled a homicide, and shady suspects begin popping out of the woodwork. When another victim turns up dead, Shannon is convinced she must find the killer before someone else gets nailed...
