Trouble in the Observatory: An Audrey Lockwood Mystery (Audrey Lockwood Mysteries: Freshman Year Book 13)
By Vivian Monroe
Spring nights at Ravenshore University are meant for stargazing — not suspicion.
When a highly anticipated live-streamed astronomy event is abruptly canceled due to a mysterious equipment failure, student sleuth Audrey Lockwood can’t shake the feeling that something doesn’t add up. The malfunction is subtle. Precise. Almost too tidy to be an accident.
Drawn into the puzzle, Audrey ventures up to the university’s rooftop observatory, where academic ambition burns bright and pressure runs even hotter. As she listens to anxious students and overworked staff, she begins to see a pattern emerge — not of rivalry or revenge, but of fear. Fear of failure. Fear of being seen. Fear of falling short when the whole world is watching.
Blending keen observation with growing psychological insight, Audrey uncovers the truth behind the sabotage — and discovers that sometimes the most damaging acts aren’t driven by malice, but by the desperate need to avoid imperfection.
Trouble in the Observatory is a warm, character-driven cozy mystery set on a university campus, perfect for readers who love gentle puzzles, emotional realism, and mysteries solved with empathy instead of force.
Because under the same sky, everyone is just trying to find their place among the stars.
