Looks are Deceiving paperback new by Bill Vanpatten 2021
""A mystery featuring an endearing amateur sleuth and timely conversations about racism and homophobia in contemporary America. VanPatten does an excellent job of balancing tough conversations about serious social issues with more lighthearted scenes of small-town life in this entertaining cozy mystery. By grounding a fictional world in reality, author VanPatten lends serious weight and stakes to his novel, transforming a simple mystery into a work of important cultural commentary, which is a rare feat in the genre."
