Synopsis:
Antiques can be a dangerous business. Especially when you’re dealing with a desperate politician, a sexy ex-cop, and a couple of “spirited” companions.
Anna Yesterday owns Yesterday’s Antiques in small town USA. When she finds an old newspaper clipping lining the drawer of an antique dresser, she realizes she’s never heard the horrible story of rape and suicide detailed on the yellowed newsprint. So she starts to dig, and her sleuthing exposes an ugly cover-up that casts the residents of Crocker, Indiana into danger and intrigue, and leaves them with a corpse.

My Review: ✭✭✭✭✭
This cozy mystery has it all! Sam Cheever is a prolific author in the cozy genre. If you aren’t au courant with cozies, you really should check out what’s there. It’s a world all its own, and it’s a rich gold mine!
Anna Yesterday is the owner of the antique store. Her “guardian angel” is a hunky cowboy ghost she wishes weren’t a ghost. His sidekick is a snarky saloon girl who also happens to be a ghost. Anna’s recently hired a guy who seems too good to be true. And you know what they say about things that seem too good to be true…
Then there’s the newspaper article Anna finds in the old chest she bought the other day from a local family. It’s all about a rape in town, but she’s never heard this story. Given that it’s about the former mayor, whose son is the present mayor, she can’t understand why she’s never heard the story. Inquiring minds want to know…
Anna and her new hire, Pratt Davies, get into and cause all kinds of trouble in town when they start poking their inquiring noses into this story. It takes 2 ghosts, a cat, and an autistic teenager to solve this one! It’s dangerous and it’s hilarious all at once. And then there’s just a bit of it’s so sweet, too. But let’s save that for the end, okay? Go get your copy of Yesterday’s News and settle in for a really great read.
