Murder on Driftwood Beach

She thought she’d buried her old life. Then she turned the photograph over.

Six months after her divorce, former investigative journalist Julia Mercer comes to Sand Dollar Cove to disappear, to drink her coffee on the sand at dawn, to stop being the woman who couldn’t let anything go.

The little Cape Cod beach town is exactly what she needs: lighthouse and dune grass, a café that knows your order, and seven women past fifty who pull an eighth chair into their morning circle as if they’d been saving it for her.

Then a body washes up on Driftwood Beach, and the town agrees a little too quickly that it was an accident.
