As Rue settles in, she reunites with old friends and is excited to start a new chapter in her life. But not long after she rings up her first customer, the town is in an uproar over the murder of a local bakery owner. It doesn't take long until Rue finds herself smack dab in the middle of a murder investigation that threatens to upend life in her new home. Will Rue unmask the killer before it's too late? Or will she unwittingly become their next victim? This fun-filled and clean bookshop cozy mystery will have you guessing until the very end.

A sense of calmness returns to the seaside town of Somerset Harbor, and Rue Collier is spending her time running her gran's bookstore. Meanwhile, Rue's best friend, Elizabeth, is putting a book together to benefit the Literacy Foundation of Southeastern Massachusetts, filled with saved and treasured letters from the families in town. But not long after a local furniture store owner submits a family letter to the book project, she is found dead, a victim of poisoning-the same fate her mother had met years prior. It doesn't take long for Rue to realize that the collected letters may contain the answers needed to solve the crime. Will Rue be able to piece together the clues before the killer strikes again? This fun-filled and clean bookshop cozy mystery will have you guessing until the very end.

Since focusing more on the online presence of her gran's Seabreeze Bookshop, as well as running the day-to-day operations, Rue's blood pressure has shot up through the roof. Despite her busy schedule, she decides she can no longer put off another visit to her doctor, who gently reprimands her to fill up her fridge with more veggies and to get more exercise. But when someone close to the doctor is murdered, Rue is thrust once again into another investigation. With a list of suspects as long as Rue's to-do list, it's quickly apparent that this case will be her most challenging yet. Will Rue determine who had motive and opportunity? Or will a killer finally be able to slip away from justice being served?

A group of four old friends visits Somerset Harbor and stays in a row of up-scale rental houses on the beach. Known in their youth as the Magical Mischief Makers, they are now retired from highly esteemed careers. At her Seabreeze Bookshop, Rue Collier plans to continue a tradition her gran had set with the group she liked so much, a book discussion. But when one of the four is found face-down in a tide pool, Rue finds herself in the middle of a murder mystery. Desperate for a distraction, the remaining three friends insist that the book club must go on; which gives Rue the opportunity to design "book discussion questions" as a way to fish for clues. Will Rue dig through the group's sullied past as carnival workers in order to find the motive, and the killer? Or will she unwittingly end up as the next target?

Two weeks before the busy season commences in Somerset Harbor, Rue Collier hosts the Summer Reading Celebration at her gran’s Seabreeze Bookshop. But when a local caterer, and heir to a distinguished producer of fine honey, is found dead in her uncle’s mansion, cryptic hints are blurted out by an unexpected source: the uncle’s parrot, Zeke. Will Rue piece together the puzzle before the latest murder threatens to upend the busy season before it even starts?
