The Canary's Call: A Cozy Mystery of Coal Mines and a Buried Past: In this town, the past is the most dangerous thing to unearth...

⛏️ The small, struggling town of Blackrock is trying to reinvent itself by turning its abandoned coal mine into a tourist attraction. But on the day of the grand opening, the project's charismatic but controversial leader is found dead at the mine's entrance, a vintage canary cage lying beside him. The police call it a tragic accident, but local historian and library director Elara Finch suspects foul play. The victim was her uncle, and he was on the verge of exposing a secret that certain townspeople would kill to protect. Using her knowledge of the town's turbulent history, Elara begins her own investigation. With help from her rescue canary, Pip, and a geologist with family ties to the old mining company, she uncovers a vein of corruption that runs as deep as the mine shafts. From stolen land deeds and environmental cover-ups to a decades-old mining disaster that was anything but an accident, every clue brings her closer to a truth that someone is desperate to keep buried. Can Elara answer the canary's call and expose the killer before the mine's dark history claims another victim?
