The common mispronunciation of Helen’s last name makes it sound like she’s Hell-on Wheels. The newly minted librarian is anything but that! Yet when she’s unfairly fired with no legal recourse, she manages to coerce her way into a new job, cataloging a collection at a private estate. Arriving at the secluded manor, Helen learns that a hundred years earlier, the great-grandmother of her new employer, business mogul Jackson Wagner, disappeared without a trace. More recently, Jackson’s fiancée also disappeared, and no one, including him, seems very concerned. After boys with a metal detector uncover a woman’s body in the nearby woods, and Helen discovers that young women have been disappearing from the area for at least ten years, she begins to wonder just how safe she really is in the otherwise tranquil setting. If Helen can’t figure out what’s behind the disappearances and learn to emulate her alter-ego Hell-on Wheels, she may just be the next one to go missing! This cozy mystery with intrigue, suspense, and romance is approximately 125,000 words long, or approximated 350 pages. NOTE: A second edition of this book was published on June 22, 2014.

Helen Wiels is keeping secrets. They aren’t hers, but if she breathes a word about them, it could mean the end of some friendships she values. Helen’s past is not exactly a secret, but there was something in it she probably should have told Jackson Wagner before they married. She just hopes when she does tell him, he won’t resent that she hadn’t been as honest with him as he’d been with her about his own family’s past... moreHelen Wiels is keeping secrets.
