Coles The Pharmacist's List - A Small-Town Mystery Where No One Is Who You Think They Are at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

A recall notice. A body. And a list that keeps getting shorter.
When a routine drug recall lands on pharmacist Claire Halloran's counter, it should mean nothing more than an evening of phone calls. Instead, before she can finish making them, one of her regulars is found dead beside a pill bottle her pharmacy never filled — from a lot that, according to the manufacturer, was never even shipped to her state. Determined to find out how a stranger's poison ended up wearing her pharmacy's good name, Claire starts digging through fourteen years of records and into a system built on nothing sturdier than handwritten cards and one woman's word. She wants the killing to stop before it reaches the next name on the list. She doesn't expect how close to home the next name is going to be.
A state investigator comes home with secrets of his own. A corporate buyout pressures the whole town to look away. And the body count keeps climbing exactly one step ahead of Claire, in a way that only someone who knows this pharmacy — and knows her — could manage. Every name on that list was someone Claire trusted. Now she has to ask how many of the people closest to her were never as safe around her as she believed, and start wondering whether the hand that taught her everything she knows about protecting this town is the same hand that's been quietly deciding who doesn't get to stay in it.
If the person you'd trust with your life is the one person you were never taught to suspect — how do you know you're safe until it's already too late?
