The Secret of Seaside by\u00a0Agatha Ball\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Book 1 of the Paige Comber Mystery Series<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Plot<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to Seaside! A sleepy, island village filled with sweet summer romance, sandy beaches, colorful characters\u2026 AND MURDER!<\/em>

Paige Comber dreams of running off to Paris to train at the Cordon Bleu, but fresh out of college, she is stuck running her granny\u2019s coffee shop in the small town of Seaside. It looks like a lousy summer until a handsome stranger named Nate arrives. He\u2019s here to help his Uncle Byron with his affairs, but when his uncle\u2019s body washes up on the beach and he is accused, it is up to Paige to find out who might have been crazy enough to do it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Review<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Seaside is a small island where everyone knows everyone else. Paige Comber goes to stay with her gran there, working at her Gran\u2019s coffee shop & hanging out with her old friend Johnny. It\u2019s quiet & peaceful until a new guy arrives in town. Paige\u2019s summer is starting to look up\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nate has come to the island to help out his uncle Byron. Byron is a recluse who is disliked by the islanders. So no-one is particularly heartbroken when Byron is found dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The local police waste no time in arresting Nate for murdering his uncle. However, Paige is sure it wasn\u2019t him and sets to work proving Nate\u2019s innocence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Paige is stumbling around looking for clues she stumbles across a second body!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything gets more complicated as, suddenly, she is also under suspicion\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in trying to prove HER innocence the body count continues to rise\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a quick read and a good cosy mystery, even if I didn\u2019t spot who the murderer was! Looking forward to more books in the series.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Available in paperback from\u00a0Amazon<\/a>\u00a0and on Kindle\u00a0https:\/\/amzn.to\/3SWgyKW<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n
