What to expect
Welcome to Seacastle, a neglected resort on England's south coast. Divorced, broke, and saddled with a malevolent rescue cat, Tanya Bowe has swapped investigative journalism for running a struggling vintage furniture shop. When her tech-savvy stepson, Mouse, invades her life, he's a reminder that the modern world moves faster than she does.
But life takes a darker turn when an old schoolmate is found dead in her family mansion. The police—led by Tanya's ex-husband, DI George Carter, are quick to call it an accident, but Tanya's instincts scream foul play. Determined to uncover the truth, she launches her own investigation.
As Tanya dives deeper, she must navigate a quirky cast of Seacastle locals, work around George's skepticism, and reluctantly accept Mouse's tech support—all while staying one step ahead of a killer who's ready to strike again.
Did Mel fall . . . or was she pushed? And can Tanya uncover the truth before the killer strikes again?
With its perfect blend of wit, intrigue, and seaside charm, Deadly Return is a treat for fans of cozy craft and hobby mystery, realistic mysteries, and twisty whodunits.
