The holiday season has arrived in Driftwood Harbor, and Lanie Kerrigan is determined to make her mother’s bistro glow with good food and cheer… but when a husband vanishes during a blizzard and whispers of murder ripple through town, Lanie’s bungalows become the center of a storm fiercer than the one outside. As the snow traps neighbors and strangers alike, Driftwood Harbor buzzes with suspicion. Was the missing man hiding secrets? When Lanie stumbles across an old tag it could mean something, or could just be a bit of nothing. The closer she gets to solving the crime, the more she realizes that her mother may have been hiding a family history she never knew she was part of. With trooper Declan Reid fighting to keep the investigation steady, and her adopted hound Sitka faithfully at her side, Lanie must untangle past from present before the tide carries another secret away, and as Christmas lanterns flicker against the snow, she learns that some truths, no matter how deeply buried, will eventually find their way to the surface. This third book in the Tide and Thyme Cozy Mystery series lends holiday warmth with small-town suspense, perfect for fans who like their cozy mysteries wrapped in winter light and tied with ribbons of family and forgiveness.
