The New York Times
bestselling author of the Farmers’ Market Mysteries and the Country
Cooking School Mysteries introduces readers to Star City, Utah, and a
little shop called the Rescued Word...
Star City is known for its slopes and its powder. But nestled in the valley of this ski resort town is a side street full of shops that specialize in the simple charms of earlier eras. One of those shops is the Rescued Word, where Chester Henry and his adult granddaughter Clare lovingly repair old typewriters and restore old books. Who ever thought their quaint store would hold the key to some modern-day trouble?
When a stranger to town demands they turn over an antique Underwood typewriter they’re repairing for a customer, Clare fears she may need to be rescued. A call to the police scares the man off, but later Clare finds his dead body in the back alley. What about a dusty old typewriter could possibly be worth killing for?

What can I say? I have,
many times, written about how Paige Shelton started my love of cozy
mysteries. This is the 1st book in her 3rd series and I could not be
happier. If you have never read a cozy mystery, this is the perfect book
to start with. It's fantastic. First the characters are endearing from
the start and then the story is amazing. I hope there will be many,
many, many more to come for Clare and everyone in Star City!!!
