He thinks nothing of it until she disappears. Only then does he find out she has been meeting men through an online dating site for small-town participants. When a woman in the neighboring town of Bobtail turns up dead after meeting someone through the same dating site, Craddock becomes alarmed.

So pleased to join the group. I've had three short stories published--one in 2017, one 2018, and now one in 2019--in the Malice Domestic anthology, Mystery Most Edible. Thanks for the shout-out for the book.
