About the Secret, Book & Scone Society Series

Sometimes the right book shows up when we need it most. That’s pretty much the whole of The Secret, Book & Scone Society, a cozy mystery series by Ellery Adams. It’s set in Miracle Springs, a small town in North Carolina where people go to escape or start over.

Nora Pennington is the main character and runs a small bookstore located in the old train station. Nora does not just sell books — she listens to people and provides a carefully selected book that connects with the readers’ experience or situation. Nora is using other people’s stories to assist the people she meets.

After a difficult event in her life, Nora develops a close friendship with three other women. Similar to Nora, the women have each endured adversity; they have secrets. They become a group, committed to solving small-town mysteries and supporting one another. To become members of the group, each woman must tell the group painful truths. The act of honesty connects them further. They begin to meet and share stories, eventually connecting in a family manner.
