Series: Secret, Book, & Scone Society #2
I am not a big fan of this series. There is something too simple about Nora Pennington of Miracle Springs and her healing way with the right book for the right ailment. Granted, I do love the titles and authors that she mentions, which bring back memories of when I too had read them, but for the most part, the ladies of the Secret, Book, and Scone Society are not memorable.
When Abilene shows up in Miracle Springs wearing a hospital gown and no other identification, the ladies take her under their wing. When it is discovered that this mystery girl also has ties to a recently deceased woman with a valuable book collection, the ladies try to put all the pieces together only to discover that too many people have secrets and ulterior motives and only a set of keys can truly reveal who Abilene is and why she was kept hidden for most of her life.
Not everyone is who they pretend to be. The adage of hiding in plain sight comes to mind, and Nora is faced with this reality when her own life is held in the balance by a person that she had discounted and learned almost too late was the real mastermind behind the deaths and the reasons for manipulating those in this trusting town.
