Whispers on the Wind
(2024)(The second book in the Cherry Blossom Bay Mystery series)
A novel by H C Cardona
In the serene coastal haven of Cherry Blossom Bay, the whispers are deadly, and the truth is as elusive as the shifting sands.
With one mystery under her belt, Piper Rose is ready for more. Despite her boss and affable PI Kenji Kitsune firing her every other day during their banter, she loves what she’s doing…and who she’s doing it with. But the discovery of local artist Victoria Scheffeld’s body at the scenic shore casts a dark cloud over the town's blooming cherry blossoms.
Victoria, an emerging talent from the arts community, was entangled in a web of suspicion and secrets. Was her death an accident, or was she silenced? The suspects are as colorful and complex as her paintings: Adrian Lancaster, head of the committee that issued her a scholarship; a group of shady businessmen unable to reclaim the money they loaned her; and her own brother, Detective Richmond, who was seen arguing with her in public right before her untimely death.
As the Spring Art Festival draws near, Piper and Kenji must navigate through lies and distrust. The closer they get to the truth, the more perilous their path becomes. Can they solve the mystery before the petals fall and the killer strikes again?
Step into Whispers on the Wind, where every whisper could mean the difference between justice and injustice, and where the past never truly dies. Fans of Bones and Castle are devouring this series!
