Tide and Punishment: A Beachfront Cozy Mystery
About this ebook
Charm, North Carolina doesn't see much snow—but a rare winter storm rolls in just as Everly Swan's Aunt Fran launches her mayoral campaign. When Fran's opponent is found dead before their first debate, suspicion blankets the island—and lands squarely on Everly's beloved aunt.
With political tensions rising and the town buried in both snow and secrets, Everly must unwrap the truth before Christmas morning. But solving a holiday mystery isn't easy with a grieving community, romantic complications, and a killer hiding behind the season's brightest smile.
Filled with holiday charm, cozy suspense, and a sleuth who won't let murder ruin her Christmas cookies, the festive Tide and Punishment is a fan favorite in Bree Baker's bestselling Seaside Café Mysteries—perfect for fans of Laura Childs, Kate Carlisle, and anyone who loves small-town Christmas whodunits.
Includes recipes straight from Everly's kitchen!
"This is a food- and tea-filled story, but Baker never loses sight of moving the mystery plot forward and providing ample opportunities for fans to catch up with the engaging series cast." — Booklist
"I've said before that I want to live in Charm, and that's still the case . . . I love the cookie baking, delivery service, gnome 'issues,' tea drinking, Christmas celebrating, and mystery solving in Tide and Punishment . "— Christy's Cozy Corner
