The Secret on Rum Runner’s Lane: A Book Magic Mini Mystery
by Melissa Bourbon
The Secret on Rum Runner’s Lane by Melissa Bourbon is a fantastical book that I loved diving into. It was great from the first chapter to the ending.
~Baroness’ Book Trove
This is the prequel to this new series and it had me hooked on the concept, the setting. and the characters.
~Storeybook Reviews
It may be a short story but it gives a thorough introduction of the characters as well as a picturesque view of Devil’s Cove. Sure to pique the interest of cozy lovers looking for a mini-mystery to draw them into a new series.
~Books a Plenty Book Reviews
. . . this was a quick read about characters that you immediately care about in a picturesque setting (two, actually).
~I Read What You Write!
THE SECRET ON RUM RUNNER’S LANE captures the uncertainty and underlying strength of women searching for their place in the world. It allows readers to get a glimpse of the past while seeing the glimmer of what’s to come.
~Cozy Up With Kathy
The Secret on Rum Runner’s Lane is a layered story with a well-developed backstory for a character whose decisions in that time period set the path for generations to come.
~Reading Is My SuperPower
The setting is enchanting with realistic characters you can root for. The mystery is perfectly solvable based on the clues hidden within the text. The paranormal aspect is an original idea.
~Diane Reviews Books
The author brings the story to life with her character development and vivid setting. I could feel Cassie’s pain dealing with her family curse. I was totally transported into her world.

The Lane women are bibliomancers, but Cassie sees her divination not as a gift, but as a curse–one from which she desperately wants to escape. It turns out, though, that running from her fate isn’t as easy as she thought it would be. When a woman goes missing, and a neighbor turns up dead, Cassie turns to the books she’s always avoided to help her find the truth.
