The Woman at 3 A.M.

At 3:07 every morning, Edie Bramwell drives the number 14 night bus through the quiet streets of Bellweather Bay, where the passengers are sleepy, the secrets are plentiful, and her ginger cat Walter is waiting at home to hear every clue.

Then Edie notices the same elegant woman boarding at the same lonely stop three nights in a row. Cream coat. Blue handbag. Exact change. A careful smile that hides more fear than it reveals.

On the fourth night, the woman is gone.

In her place is a polished stranger asking questions Edie knows better than to answer. Soon, a missing passenger, a mysterious appointment card, an old family brooch, and a locked room beneath a respectable house pull Edie into a decades-old web of inheritance, coercion, and secrets people have paid dearly to keep quiet.

With help from Walter, a sharp-eyed café owner, a few formidable older women, and her own talent for remembering what others overlook, Edie must decide who to trust before the truth disappears at the last stop.

Perfect for fans of warm small-town mysteries, amateur sleuths, clever cats, family secrets, and cozy suspense with heart.
