Five guest rooms. Nine guests. A murder no one heard.At the Oasis Bed and Breakfast, the coffee was brewing, guests were gathering, and breakfast was almost ready. Upstairs, Gabriel was dying.No scream. No cry for help. Downstairs, the morning carried on.When longtime partners Frank Wright and Joe Morris buy the secluded lakeside property, they imagine a fresh start: a home of their own, a business together, and a peaceful escape from city life. They expect dust, repairs, and the occasional argument over money.They don’t expect the past to become their most unwelcome guest.As they prepare the Oasis to reopen, hidden letters, missing money, and conflicting accounts draw them into the lives of its former owners. What happened to Gabriel seems settled. What led to his death-and what others have kept concealed-is another matter.With each discovery, Frank and Joe find more reasons to question the story they’ve inherited. And beneath the everyday creaks of the old building, something stranger seems determined to be heard.Warm humour, a devoted gay couple, and an unsettling mystery come together in The Quiet Murder, the first book in the Five Rooms, Five Secrets Mystery Series, by Robert Allan, who also writes as Alan R. Warren.They bought the Oasis for a new beginning. Its secrets were already waiting.
