A reunion mystery on Nova Scotia’s coast

Belinda Bishop arrives at her high school reunion with a stalled journalism career and a temporary job at her parents’ seaside cottage and RV park. The gathering takes a darker turn when a former classmate is found dead, and Belinda’s childhood friend—now a longtime rival—becomes the prime suspect. The investigation brings the two women together despite their history, giving the mystery a small-town setting and a partnership shaped by old tensions. Journalism and the uncertain work of rebuilding a life sit alongside the murder inquiry, while the reunion setting brings past relationships into the present.

Book overview

A high school reunion comes to an abrupt end when the dead body of the class jock shocks the school's gymnasium in this cozy mystery debut, perfect for fans of Ellery Adams and Eva Gates.

Belinda Bishop is unemployed and single. At thirty-two, her journalism career feels stuck, and let's not even speak about her love life, which isn't helping her look forward to her upcoming high school reunion. Stuck working at her parents' seaside cottage and RV park in Nova Scotia for the time being, she needs time to regroup and come up with a killer story to get her career and her life back on track.

When she literally stumbles across the dead body of the philandering class jock at the reunion, the party quickly comes to a stop. At first, it seems like the perfect opportunity for Belinda to channel her inner Christianne Amanpour, until her childhood-best-friend-turned-nemesis, Jolene Dexter, is declared the prime suspect. Despite their falling out, Belinda is convinced the former pageant queen is innocent.

As the two women struggle to put aside their differences, they have to work together to catch the real murderer before this sleepy coastal town is rocked to its foundations.

This romp of a mystery is perfect for fans of Jenn McKinlay and Benjamin Stevenson.
