The Archivist's Secret

A Small-Town LGBTQ+ Cozy Mystery

Some honors are built on deleted names.

On Old Book Exchange Day, the new Custom House archive wing should be a celebration. Instead, maintenance logs, mounting wax, and a 2006 draft tell a story someone hoped would stay compressed between the shelves.

A mystery about academic credit, supervised access, and the difference between hiding truth and protecting it properly.

You'll find

  • Old records, fair-play clues, coastal atmosphere
  • A complete closed-case mystery — Some honors are built on deleted names.
  • Slow-burn trust between Elias and Silas

You won't find

  • Gore, torture, or on-page violence for shock
  • Paranormal explanations or love-triangle drama
  • Spoilers on this page — the case belongs to the book
