She's styled her unruly hair, shined her boots, and even purchased a whole new fashionable (or at least fashionably priced) wardrobe. However, she's certain finding a body is not very ladylike behavior... While out exploring the beautiful island with her Aunt Flora, Cassie stumbles across the body of Peanut Runkles, town grump and her aunt's neighbor, lying at the foot of the harbor pilots' lookout tower. To make matters worse, because Peanut and Flora have been quarreling for years over everything from Flora's eccentric ideas to her pet pig's fondness for Peanut's vegetable patch, Flora is immediately arrested for murder. Desperate to save the only family she has left, Cassie vows to prove Flora's innocence and untangle the mystery herself, no matter how much certain others may disapprove. Cassie's brilliant mind and nose for a clue lead her on an investigation that takes her all around the island, and even earns her a valiant furry friend in Esy the kitten. But how does the mysterious ledger Cassie finds hidden in a secret drawer in Peanut's desk connect to the crime? Cassie is determined to dig up the truth, but can she catch the killer before her time on the island comes to a deadly end? This warm and witty cozy mystery will transport you to the island city of Fernandina and introduce you to a feisty heroine far before her time! Perfect for fans of Verity Bright, T E Kinsey and Deanna Raybourn.

Book Description
I am the witness of my disability and I know how to be disabled. I know how to be stigmatized by the people whom you never did something wrong to them. I know how to live in discrimination because of the disability I never intended to have, but all those things are nothing because the only dangerous weapon that kills the expectations of any disabled person is the WORD that many people use; thinking that they are showing their kindness. Yet they do not know that they are killing the strength of mind of the disabled, they keep on using the word SHAME as if all is well to the disabled person. In actuality it is not good to be disabled. It is not magnificent to depend on somebodys kindness and willingness to quench your desire.
