A murder behind an old church. A town built on secrets. Two twelve-year-old best friends determined to uncover the truth.

Bellweather, 1958.

Twelve-year-old Michael Holloway and his best friend, Stella Blackwell, never expected to become detectives. But when a man is found murdered behind old Blackwood Church, curiosity pulls them into an investigation far more dangerous than either imagined.

What begins with a single murder soon leads to mysterious church bells, threatening messages, hidden rooms, forgotten graves, secret records, and clues reaching decades into Bellweather's past.

Someone has worked very hard to keep the truth buried.

And someone knows Michael and Stella are getting too close.

As the best friends follow the trail left behind by the dead, they discover that Walter Finch's murder may be connected to secrets stretching back more than thirty years—and to people the town would rather forget.

But in Bellweather, asking the wrong question can be dangerous.

And uncovering the right answer could make Michael and Stella the killer's next targets.

Set against the atmosphere of small-town America in 1958, The Murder Behind Blackwood Church: A Bellweather Mystery is a suspenseful middle-grade historical mystery filled with friendship, hidden clues, buried secrets, and two young detectives who refuse to stop asking questions.

Perfect for young readers who enjoy historical mysteries, amateur detectives, cold cases, secret passages, small-town mysteries, and best-friend adventures.
