Death by the Sea Kathleen Bridge

Nationally bestselling author Kathleen Bridge presents a delightful new series set on a barrier island where waves meet sand--and mayhem meets murder . . . The Indialantic by the Sea Hotel has a hundred-year-old history on beautiful Melbourne Beach, Florida, and more than a few guests seem to have been there from the start. When Liz Holt returns home after an intense decade in New York, she's happy to be surrounded by the eccentric clientele and loving relatives that populate her family-run inn, and doubly pleased to see the business is staying afloat thanks to its vibrant shopping emporium and a few very wealthy patrons. But that patronage decreases by one when a filthy rich guest is discovered dead in her oceanfront suite. Maybe this is simply a jewel theft gone wrong, but maybe someone--or many people--wanted the hotel's prosperous guest dead. Only one thing is sure: there's a killer at the Indialantic, and if Liz lets herself be distracted--by her troubled past or the tempting man who seems eager to dredge it back up--the next reservation she'll book could be at the cemetery . . .
