Glitter gets everywhere. So do secrets.

Junie Harper’s custom décor business is finally gaining momentum when a high-end party commission pulls Harper’s Handycrafts into Briar Creek’s upscale event world. The client wants handmade centerpieces, elegant resin work, and just enough sparkle to make the room glow.

Then event planner Paula Winslow is found dead near the staging area at the Whitfield, and Junie’s glitter becomes trace evidence.

With her reputation under attack and the commission at risk, Junie starts doing what she does best: organizing the details others overlook. Delivery logs. Access records. Missing contract pages. Swapped décor pieces. A trail of scattered gold glitter that leads somewhere far more dangerous than a ruined event setup.

As Junie and Nora dig into Paula’s professional world, they uncover exclusive vendor contracts, hidden payments, online sabotage, and a polished system built to control creative businesses. Everyone had a reason to resent Paula. A competing stylist wanted access. A subcontractor wanted repayment. A venue manager controlled every door, every log, and every blind spot.

Now Junie must prove the glitter trail was staged before the killer turns her own craft into the perfect cover-up.

Glittered Guilt is a cozy craft mystery full of handmade charm, clever clues, small-town gossip, and a detail-driven amateur sleuth who knows that the smallest sparkle can reveal the biggest secret.

Perfect for readers who enjoy cozy craft mysteries, hobby-shop sleuths, small-town whodunits, and clean clue-driven mysteries with heart.
