Whispers in the Walls, A Cliffside Haven Mystery — Book 3

A missing girl. A moonstone ring. And whispers that refuse to stay hidden.

When a hidden attic and a cursed ring awaken old whispers, truth can become deadly.

Lee Winters thought she’d found peace in Cliffside Haven—until a moonstone ring links her to a woman who vanished decades ago. Every creak in the walls carries a name. Every lie tastes like copper on her tongue.
With Bear at her side and the fog closing in, Lee must unravel a secret someone buried alive. Because in Cliffside Haven, some ghosts don’t haunt—they warn.

Shadows Beneath the Bay

When lie-sensitive sleuth Lee Winters finds a bloodstained journal and a trail of buried secrets on the windswept cliffs of Cliffside Haven, she’s pulled into a chilling mystery that cuts deeper than the fog rolling off the bay.

Local fisherman Elias Rourke vanished without a trace. The police say he drowned. His family says he fled. But Lee knows something doesn’t add up—especially when anonymous notes, corrupted files, and shadowy figures start circling her trailer.

As she follows cryptic clues through abandoned boathouses, storm-ravaged cliffs, and decades of cover-ups, Lee uncovers a dangerous truth: the powerful Spaulding family has been hiding more than just toxic waste. With help from a loyal dog, a reluctant sheriff, and a woman mourning more than just a friend, Lee must outwit those who silence with money and threats.

Because someone is still watching.

And they’ll do anything to keep the past buried.

Whispers of the Past

Secrets are hard to keep. The darker they are the more you have to do to keep them from the light.

Gordon is dead. Who killed him and why? Is he really who he says he is?

When Lee Winters, a guarded drifter with a sharp mind and a gift for spotting lies, rolls into the seaside town of Cliffside Haven, she’s only looking for quiet. What she finds instead is a community cloaked in charm—and secrets and lies buried deep.

Lee, and her best friend Bear (a Golden Retriever) team up with the handsome but difficult local detective (Wesley). Together they feel compelled to bring the truth to light at any cost.

But the truth is far more twisted than anyone suspects. Lee must navigate a maze of half-truths, long-held grudges, and a past that refuses to stay buried.

But digging up the truth in Cliffside Haven comes with a price. And someone will do anything to make sure it stays dead.

Perfect for fans of small-town intrigue, slow-burn suspense, and smart female sleuths. Whispers of the Past is the compelling first entry in a twist-filled new cozy mystery series.
