For amateur sleuth Maggie, who has a knack for solving mysteries, something about the death doesn’t add up. Despite whispers of an accident, her instincts tell her there������s more to the story.
With her loyal dog Biscuit, brother Ronan, and cousin Kate by her side, Maggie is determined to uncover the truth. Of course, the ever-inquisitive members of the Mystery Book Club (MBC) are also eager to suggest a theory or two.
DI Tom Pearce has learned to tolerate Maggie’s curiosity, but when she edges too close to uncovering long-buried secrets and the investigation takes a dangerous turn, Tom’s concern for her safety deepens.
As secrets from the past come to light and tensions rise among the villagers, Maggie soon
realises that the peaceful charm of Sandy Cove hides a darker side. With a cast of suspicious characters—from a treasure hunter to a local developer—everyone seems to have something to hide.
