It's Title Time!

The fifth Seaside Cove Bed & Breakfast Mystery will be here in the spring—assuming it gets a title, of course. If you'd like to help me out, drop me an email with your vote. You're also welcome to submit your suggestions if you've got one you think would be good.

As a little incentive for you Seaside Cove fans, send me your vote and I'll send you a reply with a sneak peek at the first two chapters! 

Synopsis:

When a rumor starts that the archaeologist in charge of salvaging the San Mañuel is stealing the 400-year-old treasure, the press swarms the town along with tourists and treasure-hunting amateurs. Things get crazier when a known treasure thief is murdered.

Seaside Cove Bed & Breakfast owner Rick Atwood is called on to help investigate the murder. Of course, his eleven-year-old daughter Alex wants in on the action and launches her own under-the-radar investigation. Soon, it becomes obvious that everything going on in Seaside Cove has been orchestrated, and the dead man may only be the first victim.

Vote of one (or send me your suggestion)

  • Dead Men Don't Need Treasure
  • Treasure at Dead Man's Cove
  • Double-cross at Dead Man's Cove

Writing News

I recently (re)joined the Booklovers Bench blogging group. The group now has a great bunch of cozy mystery writers so the group feels both familiar and new. I'm enjoying being able to communicate and share ideas with other working cozy writers. I've also completed the first 'story draft' of the new Seaside Cove Bed & Breakfast Mystery. As I mentioned last month, I'm in a 'title quandary.' Here's your chance to chime in on what you think a good title would be!
