Ruth has three days to pull off four events—including the grand reopening of Cog & Sprocket, the clock shop she inherited from her grandfather—so she doesn’t have time for Beckett Green’s nonsense. The competitive owner of a new bookstore, Green seems determined to put other businesses out of business by also carrying their specialty items. He’s trying to steal Ruth’s new watchmaker, Mark Pine, not to mention block her plans to renovate the town clock tower.

Ruth is already all wound up when she’s alarmed to discover Mark’s dead body. As the denizens of Orchard each chime in as to who they think the murderer is, Ruth needs to watch her back as she investigates on her own. Despite the danger, Ruth won’t stop until the killer is behind bars and serving time…

Review of Clock and Dagger

Review (5 Stars):  This is such a charming series and Ruth is a clever heroine that always seems to have time on her side when solving mysteries.  Clock and Dagger is the second book in this delightful series and Ruth definitely has her hands full on this one with all the events that she has planned.  This mystery is well-written, engaging and I always love to learn  more about Ruth’s wonderful clock repairing abilities.  Can’t wait to see what is in store next for this entertaining series.
