Sandra, a recent lonely widow, is ready for something new in her life. She never dreamt she would find murder, deceit, and especially, lies about the person she trusted most. Sandra and her private investigator neighbor, Rosie, discover an unsolved murder had been committed in her home long before Sandra moved in. Sandra's world comes tumbling down after taking a volunteer job helping an elderly couple at their home, which leads her to discover a connection between the painting in her kitchen and its artist. As clues begin to unravel and as Sandra and Rosie dig deeper into the murder, they start to encounter bizarre experiences with the painting. Will the painting lead Sandra and Rosie to the murderer? Sandra Mack was born and raised just two blocks from Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. She does not have a bucket list; however, Sandra does have a smaller, tin can list. Somehow, writing a novel made it on that list. She gets a little intense when it comes to finishing to-do lists, so what else could she do but sit at the computer and knock out her debut novel, Hidden Secrets. When taking a break from writing, you will find Sandra at the easel with paint brush in hand, ready to start a masterpiece.
