The Lighthouse Lie

Description

She came to Sealight Cove for a quiet fresh start. What she found was murder… and a dog who talks. After walking away from the life she thought she wanted, Nora Hale arrives in the small coastal town of Sealight Cove hoping for peace, second chances, and a place to begin again. Instead, she finds a cozy candle shop, a town full of secrets, and Rufus, an unusually clever rescue dog with a habit of noticing things other people miss. Very unusual things. When a longtime local is found dead beneath the old lighthouse, the town quickly calls it a tragic accident. Rufus disagrees. And when Rufus starts sharing observations no ordinary dog should know, Nora begins to suspect the death was no accident at all. The deeper she digs, the more she uncovers buried grudges, missing records, and whispers about a decades-old dispute someone would kill to keep hidden. In Sealight Cove, everyone knows everyone. That makes secrets even more dangerous. The Lighthouse Lie is a warm, fast-paced cozy mystery short read featuring a talking dog, a charming seaside town, and an amateur sleuth who may be in over her head.
