"Marina Mews delivers the charm and sleuthing spirit of Miranda James's Cat in the Stacks Mysteries, with a coastal twist, a six-toed cat, and a determined amateur detective who won't stop digging for the truth." -Cam Torrens, bestselling author of the Tyler Zahn mystery/suspense series
When veterinarian Dr. Emily Benton takes Elvis, the terrier, for an early morning beach walk, she stumbles upon a lifeless diver washed ashore. The victim is William "Billy" Todd, beloved local marina owner and Emily's former scuba diving instructor. His death shocks the tight-knit Coral Shores community, especially his niece, Lala, who returns home to uncover what really happened to her uncle.
As Emily scrambles to locate Billy's orange tabby cat and dive shop mascot, Hemingway, she finds herself entangled in another mystery. Oddities begin to surface-from a frightened feline to suspicious visitors at the marina. Was Billy's death an accident... or something more sinister?
With the help of her loyal best friend, her charming detective boyfriend, and a cast of coastal characters (both two- and four-legged), Emily dives deep into the clues. But in a town where everyone knows everyone-will the truth surface in time?
