A Beacon For Murder

Every mystery has a final chapter. This one begins with murder.

The members of the Anchor Bay Lighthouse Book Club gather each month in a historic lighthouse overlooking the sea to discuss their favorite whodunits. But when the harbor master is found dead outside the docent room after he complains about this month's book selection, fiction becomes frighteningly real.

As the town reels from the shocking crime, the newest member of the club-a military psychologist with a talent for reading people-discovers that every reader has a secret, and one suspect has a reason to want the harbor master silenced.

Each day, the salty winds off the harbor carry new questions, gentle companionship, and small, bright moments-coffee at dawn, index card clues, pastries baked with hope. As Nora opens her heart to Anchor Bay's quirks and kindness, she uncovers not only a killer, but her own place among the town's storytellers and steadfast souls.

Perfect for fans of charming seaside towns, clever clues, bookish friendships, and page-turning cozy mysteries, A Beacon For Murder is a stand-alone novella and is part of the Anchor Bay Cozy Mystery Series.
