Tide and Punishment - (Seaside Café Mysteries) by Bree Baker (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A snowy murder. A scandal in the making. And a Christmas season teetering on the edge.

Filled with holiday charm, cozy suspense, and a sleuth who won't let murder ruin her Christmas cookies, this festive mystery is a fan favorite in Bree Baker's bestselling Seaside Café Mysteries--perfect for fans of Laura Childs, Kate Carlisle, and anyone who loves small-town Christmas whodunits.

Charm, North Carolina doesn't see much snow--but a rare winter storm rolls in just as Everly Swan's Aunt Fran launches her mayoral campaign. When Fran's opponent is found dead before their first debate, suspicion blankets the island--and lands squarely on Everly's beloved aunt.

With political tensions rising and the town buried in both snow and secrets, Everly must unwrap the truth before Christmas morning. But solving a holiday mystery isn't easy with a grieving community, romantic complications, and a killer hiding behind the season's brightest smile.

Includes recipes straight from Everly's kitchen!
