Pacific Northwest Cozy Mystery

Irresistible small-town coastal charm where the clam chowder is as heavenly as the secrets are deadly… Writer Saffi Graywood is looking for a quiet place to finish her latest book when she sets her sights on Last Chance Cove. After a winding drive along the rugged Oregon coastline, Saffi arrives at her home for the summer – an RV park overlooking wind-swept beaches with salt-soaked air and fog that rolls in without warning. Three years after her husband's death, Saffi is still getting used to life on her own. But nobody is left alone for long in this small coastal community, where gossip is shared with your morning coffee and secrets whisper in the brisk sea wind. When Saffi discovers the body of the park's manager hidden amongst driftwood, her plan to hole up in her RV is shattered in an instant. She is drawn into solving a real-life mystery that's just as strange and twisty as the bestsellers she pens. In a town that seems as sweet as a whipped-cream mocha, who has a motive for murder? And will Saffi's sleuthing draw the kind of attention that could turn this exciting new chapter into her last? Murder at Last Chance Cove is the first in a captivating new series where wild beauty meets small-town intrigue. Perfect for fans of Lauren Elliott, Merryn Allingham and Debbie Macomber, who love their mysteries served with breathtaking scenery, quirky characters and a dash of romance.

A booksellers conference in the charming town of Seaside promises the perfect mix of business and pleasure for Saffi Graywood. She'll deliver a keynote speech, sign copies of her latest Bedside Reader and enjoy a romantic getaway on the windswept Oregon coast with her favorite fisherman from Last Chance Cove. But Saffi's bookish weekend gets an unwanted plot twist when her obsessive online stalker shows up at the convention threatening to destroy her career. By morning, a body is discovered strangled with fairy lights in a Surrey cycle near the hotel-and Saffi's editor is arrested for murder. Poppy has always been a killer when it comes to perfecting prose, but is she capable of actual murder? Determined to clear her editor's name, Saffi uncovers connections between the killing and a decades-old disappearance that powerful locals have buried deep. Between sipping Mexi-mochas at quirky coffeehouses and decoding clues hidden in a self-published memoir, Saffi races against time as a bomb cyclone barrels toward shore. Trapped in a town where carousels spin, painted beach stones hold secrets and friendly faces conceal deadly intentions, can Saffi unmask the killer before she becomes the next victim silenced in Seaside? Silenced in Seaside is the third book in the atmospheric Pacific Northwest Cozy Mystery series. Perfect for fans of Lauren Elliott, Merryn Allingham and readers who crave their mysteries with crashing waves, vintage RV charm and enough dark chocolate truffles to fuel a dangerous investigation.

Malcolm's grand reopening of a forgotten theme park known as "The Haunted Wood" should be his triumphant comeback. Instead, Saffi finds herself surrounded by towering evergreens, eerie movie props and a colorful cast of suspects that includes a local sheriff with his own agenda.
